Elna 664 Questions & Answers

All the correct (and exact) settings are contained in the manual that comes with the machine.

To answer your question KristenK one would have to own more than one overlocker - unless you are in sales. I do know that the Elna Pro is easier to thread than most of the others. The manual is very clear on the instructions. Maybe you could check out the descriptions provided by Spotlight Australia as they would give some clues to the machines features.

You might get $100.00 for it, it may not have been used but it is still second hand.

I think you could better $100.00 as they sell for $799 new unless on special.

Yes, there are a few. The blind hem foot is nice. http://www.elna.com/en-au/accessories.php?type=9

There are several accessory feet that you can use with the 664 & 664 Pro. I like the beading foot, elastic foot, yarn foot, lace foot, a clear foot, gathering foot and a hemmer foot (they call it a blind hem foot but it is not truly a blind hem like you sew with your sewing machine) and probably a few others that I do not have or cannot think of. I hope this helps.

It would be best to Google this as the prices change over time. I got mine on sale from Spotlight and as a VIP card holder (free) I also got a great discount. Good luck.

The pro has the very helpful dial with suggested settings for the different stitches. Also it can do some 2 thread stitches that the 664 can't. I haven't yet used a 2 thread stitch but I use the dial all the time.
