An affordable overlocker/coverstitch machine with a wide range of features and impressive stitch quality
The bernette 48 is the top model of the Funlock series and is a combination of an overlocker and a coverstitch machine. It has a total of 23 stitches: 15 overlock stitches, 3 coverstitches, 4 combo stitches and 1 chain stitch, overlock stitches with a stitch width of up to 7 mm, coverstitches with stitch widths of 2.8 or 5.6 mm and combo stitches with a stitch width of up to 10 mm. Colour-coded thread paths make threading easier and in the needle area, a manual threader helps to threading the needles. The lower looper and chain looper have a mechanical threader. The knife is operated from below, which not only ensures a cleanly cut edge, but also safe handling, and it can be adjusted comfortably with one hand. The bright LED light provides a well-lit sewing and threading area. The bernette Funlock 48 coverstitch overlock machine has a sewing speed of up to 1300 stitches per minute.

Stitch Overview

Included Accessories
Standard presser foot serger/overlocker
The standard presser foot is a loyal companion for everyday overlocking projects. It is perfect for tidying up individual layers of fabric and for creating flat seams and rolled seams. The fabric edge is cut back, sewn and finished off in one step. The flat sole ensures that the fabric is in constant contact with the feeder guide, providing a smooth sewing experience.
Cut-offs bin
The cuttings basket catches the cuttings or threads, thereby ensuring a tidy workspace at all times. It can be quickly and easily slotted onto your bernette overlocker. When the bin is full it is easy to remove and empty. Thanks to the cuttings basket, your workspace stays clean and clear. It makes working with the bernette overlocker simpler and more comfortable.
