My serger is acting up, I haven't used it in awhile, and I have spent the
last two hours trying again and again, cleaning, oiling, etc. The thread is
wrapping itself the wrong way around the left looper.

Any suggestions? It just wont work.

TIA!

Don't know what brand you have, but since you've already cleaned and
oiled, here's what usually works for me:

1. *new* needle
2. cursing &$#*%

3. *complete* re-thread, following the order in the manual
*exactly*
4. more cursing !&^#)*^#!^%*(

5. trip to local service center

If 1 or 3 works, omit 2, 4, and 5...

HTH,

Beverly
