I have just gotten an old Wilcox & Gibbs, 5 thread serger, from a decade or more of someone's basement. I've gotten it cleaned up, repaired, and almost ready to finally run it. I am excited! However, even though it still has the manual, I can not find a full diagram to guide all 5 threads at once. I can find the back looper, both needles, and the far right looper, but the other, I am left to my own guesses. I can only think I need join it with the back looper?? That seems bad. Is there a way you could show all 5 of these threaded at the same time? I believe it is comparable to mine, so hopefully that could solve the mystery... What am I doing wrong? Thanks for considering!

hello, i have a pegasus 401-01. i purchased this back in 1995. i also purchased accessories, binding attachments. it uses 3 threads and the main purpose was to ruffle flat lace. after some years, i placed it in storage and recently had it serviced. however, the ruffling feature is gone no matter at its full setting (#6). what can you tell me as to why the ruffling feature is no longer available? thanks in advance.
Tengo una máquina overlok de esa marca pero no nueva, es maravillosa!!🇦🇷🌻
Enjoy it!

I just got a wilcox and gibbs super lock 808 j 15 1 (the plate rubbed down some) ahe ia threaded for now. And im excited to start using her.
Or an 803 as I said the plate with the number is worn
Fantastic! They’re very fun to use!
Solid videos, thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
Can you do a video on how to thread this machine as i have the same and cannot thread it
Hi, I don’t have this machine anymore. There should be a detailed, color coded graph inside the machine to show you how to though.

Hi I don’t have mine anymore to send a photo. Mine had a color coded threading diagram inside the pull down cover. Maybe yours has one also?
@@derekdoeschannel Thank you for your answer. Yes, mine has some diagrams, but not of all the threads.
En dónde en cuento los repuestos de esta máquina
It would depend where you live. Do a search for industrial sewing supply.
i should also mention its a straight stitch.

Hi, I have never worked with your machine or a ruffling machine for that matter. I wish I could help but I don't know.
I just bought a Wilcox and Gibbs Superlock 803-c-5. Do you have a manual or any info on this machine?
I don't personally. Did you do a google search for it? Usually there are manuals online for almost every machine out there.
I may have found some on Etsy. It just doesn’t give an actual model number.
It’s a serger. I have one I purchased via a linen factory.
Nice!
Como passar a linha
what are you asking?
Please what is the best kind of thread to use on this machine
I'd go with a poly covered cotton and get it small like maybe a size 40. But chose what works for whatever you're sewing.
Podrías cortarme en español @@derekdoeschannel
@@derekdoeschannelplease how can I pass the threads?
@@rollandrobert1what do you mean pass the threads?
Good
Thanks
