Latch Tacking on 39500 - Made Simple

Union Special has a simple easy method of latch tacking seams when overedging with their 39500 class machines.  A new presser foot, number 39520CB, has been introduced with a latch tacker built in.  The operator simply chains off after sewing, lifts the presser foot, brings the chain around to the front of the foot and pulls it into the knife and clamp so that it is cut and clamped.  She can then load the next garment piece and begin sewing so that the remaining chain will be sewn into the seam.  Seams are consistently latch tacked closed with clean finish at start.

This new presser foot can be easily attached to most single needle, three thread 39500 machines that are being used to close sleeves and side seams on men’s and women’s knits shirts, children’s clothes and similar garments requiring a latch tacking at the beginning.


 

The presser foot can be order through your local Juki Union Special distributor by ordering part number 39520CB.  A complete machine with this latch taking presser foot included can also be ordered under style 39500XEQB1/8LT.
