Thanks so much for this. I have the Juki MO-2516 FF6-50H. Such a great workhorse, but I need to pull it apart for some moderate cleaning. I 'll be using your download for the manual to help me out. This baby, along with my Juki 5550 single needle are my best sewing friends!!
That's a dandy setup, Alex. I could see someone having a ball with that, finishing canvas (or hemp....) bags and perhaps clothing as you described. Always a pleasure, beats anything on TV.
Excellent machine by Juki. Someone custom-made the bottom machine table that holds the machine. Should’ve been adjustable. But I don’t blame you because The original base is hard to fine and cost a lot of money.
Hi… great video ! I have a question… I’ve removed the cutter that goes up and down because it’s not cutting well… the thing is that, I’ve ordered a new blade, but I’d like to be 100% how to place it back properly. Can you help me out ? Thanks
man this brings me back as my parents had sweatshop and yeah thanks for making this video that i so happen to stumbled on via your pouch making and i miss my pops making me feel feelings again. weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeellkingofthatfALL
I already sold this one. Mine had a threading diagram on the back of the cover. That is how I got mine threaded. Plus I got some pointers from experts on Instagram. Take it one thread at a time.
Hello Alex, I just bought a Juki MO-2512 and I was wondering if you had the manual available by any chance? The manual linked for this model has actually helped somewhat. Thank you for all that you do!
Thanks for the video. I would like to know more about the process that you talked about in the beginning. I want to be able to create a seam like you find at the bottom of a tee-shirt. Thank you.
Sorry, I misspoke. I saw that information in a manual I found online. alexanderdyer.work/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/Juki-MO-2500-MO-2400-Engineers-Manual.pdf
Hello! Sorry to bother but i was wonder if you can show me how you build the frame support for that machine. I haven't got any luck finding online parts at good price and want to set my head on a table i have already.
If you wanted to just do a 3 thread overlock without the safety stitch, could you also do it with this machine? Or you would need a separate 3 thread machine?
I recently started watching your channel. I am setting up a manufacturing business. I will be sewing mainly sporting apparels and would like to know which Juki overlock would best suit my need.. Preferably an older used series.
Gosh, I don't know friend. I am a guy that buys these things as I find them, learn what I can and pass it on. I don't have any manufacturing experience and the number of variables is myriad. I suggest finding a reputable dealer in your area that can advise and help set up for your particular needs.
Hi. Would you know how different is this from the MO-2316 which is what I have. I acquired it used and there was no manual. Can't seem to find one online. I want to use this for my charity group sewing so any help will be much appreciated
Hello, I inherited a juki MO-2516, class FF6-50H, unfortunately I don't know what to do with it. My aunt said the knife broke. Where can I buy accessories?
I know this is an old video But wanted to ask, can you do a merrow stitch around patches with this machine? The 2516 ff6-500. I have seen it done with the 2516N, just wondering if the 2516 can as well. I found a uses one for sale, but looking to only use to do boarders around patches
I am not sure but Merrow makes so many it seems reasonable to assume that they do make a machine to produce this stitch. They are still in business if you would like to inquire with them.
Can u do a video on how to change the oil on the juki mo2500, I got the machine from my late mom however the machine has not been use for 20 year and I think the old should be changed.
Sorry, the machine is sold so no video will be possible. There is a drain plug at the bottom of the machine, remove it and the oil will drain out. Replace the plug and fill through the clear cap in the top till full. 3:50
Very nice, I just purchased my MO2500 but it's a class FF6-320, which I believe is gathering for lightweight materials. I know I can adjust the differential feed to not gather, but is it possible to overlock the heavierweight materials like canvas with a lighter weight class? Is it just a matter of swapping feed dogs or plates or making adjustments?
Not sure about it. I tend to use tex 27 since there are 5 threads involved, they tend to lay down better. Also if you do try to use 69 make sure you use cotton or another very pliable thread since bonded nylon would probably be too stiff. You will need to consider needle size to accommodate the larger thread and I am not sure how large of thread the looper eyes would handle.
I just got this machine I’m trying to thread it I did the 4 threads that go through the front I’m trying to do the 5th one that’s on the back but I have to feed the thread through a tube and I have no idea how to get it through :/ does anyone know how I could get it through maybe there’s a certain way I’m supposed to do it
Im just about to buy a new old stock RIMOLDI b29 5 thread. It comes with its matching green original table with rounded tube legs and thrash chute. Do you have any experience with the older b27 or b29 rimoldis?
Hi Alex, do you have any information for the accessory guide? I'm trying to find it for myself but I can't seem to find it. Would you be interested in selling me the accessory? Thank you!
Parts should be available. Juki is very popular and still in business although they have moved on from this model. This one will be available on eBay in a few days.
Im trying to find out oil capacity of this thing. Any idea?, Ive not found any info online. My oil guage is not working pegged to top even when empty. Any info appreciated.
That doesn't sound too good. I would open it up and clean it out somehow if I could. To answer your question though I don't know where to find a capacity spec.
@@AlexanderDyer Figured it out. Took top cover off. 3 screws. Removed oil guage reader (clear plastic), loosened the orange wire that goes up and down. Its about 26 oz. to top it off to where oil is just above the floater below the orange wire. Guage now shows full, but not overfilled.
A list of features rather than an adjustment video. Some times chaining can be attained simply with proper adjustment of tensions but other times looper timing and clearances need adjustment.
@@AlexanderDyer thank you for the encouragement. Once I learn to move the parts , I was able to start with Needle height, set lower looper, adjust upper to lower, etcetera. Sews like a champ
Hi Annete. Yes, this one will be for sale and I ship but it can be a bit expensive if you want the table and all. Just the head is more affordable but then you have to figure out how to mount.

I make sweater outfits
thanks for this. just got a 2516N last week. did a lot to it to upgrade it. love this machine.

good to see you again Alexander!
😊
Please could you show how to use the protective edge in case of not wanting to cut the edge of the fabric?
Thank you for this!!! 🧵
I've had my Juki 2500 (same exact model you use) for 8 years and you just taught me some things!!! #designerlife 💯
Please can you do a video on how to thread and use the Emel overlocking machine EM 747G with four threads and two needles.
Yes, how you threaded? Please make a video, thank you.
Fascinating stuff! Amazing quality of manufacture. Glad you are back, thanks for the upload.

man this brings me back as my parents had sweatshop and yeah thanks for making this video that i so happen to stumbled on via your pouch making and i miss my pops making me feel feelings again.
weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeellkingofthatfALL
Hello. Is there any videos showing how to set up the cutters ? Thanks you
Nice to see you back! Looking forward to more
🙂
Can you please show how to do a gather shearing stitch on this exact juki?
I have this exact machine. So you have any video of trouble shooting this machine. Or can you do a threading video? 🙏
I already sold this one. Mine had a threading diagram on the back of the cover. That is how I got mine threaded. Plus I got some pointers from experts on Instagram. Take it one thread at a time.
OK- fantastic video! I have a similar machine that is just a shop-brick! Now I am a bit closer to understanding it- Thank you and Bravo!
😃
can you give an idea how adjust to raise up the feed dog. Because, sometimes doesn't move if I reach the thick or joined portion.Thank you
Nice machine Alexander! I'm keeping my eye out for a similar machine. My current serger doesn't like heavy fabric.
You would like this one then.
That is a really cool machine. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Hello Alex, I just bought a Juki MO-2512 and I was wondering if you had the manual available by any chance? The manual linked for this model has actually helped somewhat. Thank you for all that you do!
I don't have that one. Happy searching. 🍀
Hi Alexander, thanks for the video. where did you get the seam guide? Thanks
Thanks for the video. I would like to know more about the process that you talked about in the beginning. I want to be able to create a seam like you find at the bottom of a tee-shirt. Thank you.
I believe what you are referring to is a coverstitch rather than an overlock.
@@AlexanderDyer ok thanks. I assume that would require a different type of machine. Thank you for the reply.
I love my JUKI no-2516!!
Just gotta figure out how to empty the filter screen
:/
Let me know if you ever get another one of these that is for sale. Thx.
Merry Christmas
I'm looking for a threading diagram for this machine
Can you do a single/double needle chainstitch? On this machine?
Really great video! Thank you. I have the same machine and can’t figure out how to thread though the tube in the back for the 5th thread. Any help?
Something like this amzn.to/3ANCbRw
@@AlexanderDyer thank you so much!
Constructive, precise, educational. Thank you.
Thanks for watching!
Hi Alex, interested in the link you mentioned about the different models, think you forgot it in your description.

I have a juki 2516. It sew without the blade. Once I put the blades it does not sew
When we replace the needle, is the scarf of the needle facing to the right?
If you wanted to just do a 3 thread overlock without the safety stitch, could you also do it with this machine? Or you would need a separate 3 thread machine?
It can work as a 3 thread.

I know this is an old video

I have seen it done with the 2516N, just wondering if the 2516 can as well. I found a uses one for sale, but looking to only use to do boarders around patches
No, totally different operation.
Hi Alexander, nice machine, good video.....they seem to be all copies of various Merrow machines. Is there a Merrow equivalent?
I am not sure but Merrow makes so many it seems reasonable to assume that they do make a machine to produce this stitch. They are still in business if you would like to inquire with them.
Great info Thank you. Can I sew folded bias strips on this seam? I’m thinking to attach a inner liner w/contrasting color folded bias strips.
Sounds cool to me. 👍
Question…. Can you use this model to sew only the chain stitch & not the overlock? That would only use 2 threads I think.
I believe that is possible.
Alex I have same machine I took it apart to drain oil. And 2 oil tubes . We’re cracked where can I get the tubing.?
Call hendersonsewing.com
Thank you very much for shearing .
I have this same model. Nice video.

I do think that you can change out parts to make you machine better suited to your needs.
Nice machine, what future plans do you have for it?
eBay
Alexander, can you please fix this link, you are our only hope!! lol i can't find it anywhere :)
See if that works for you.
Will this machine handle size 69 thread? Thx. Love your videos

Can you show us how to replace the needles please??
I can't, I have sold it. Check the description of the video for documentation, that should clear it up for you.
I would like to know what can I adjust to set elastic when I do elastic it comes out too slack can u help me plz
Hello can I change size between of needle stitch? It has two needle so I want to make straight stitch closer to overlock stitch
It can be altered with the purchase and installation of appropriate parts.
i have a juki mo-2512 i'm having trouble locating where the 2 oil filters go can any help me where to locate on machine
I just got this machine I’m trying to thread it I did the 4 threads that go through the front I’m trying to do the 5th one that’s on the back but I have to feed the thread through a tube and I have no idea how to get it through :/ does anyone know how I could get it through maybe there’s a certain way I’m supposed to do it
Hey Alexander what type and size of thread are you using here?
It is either tex 27 or tex 40 spun poly
congratulations🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Im just about to buy a new old stock RIMOLDI b29 5 thread. It comes with its matching green original table with rounded tube legs and thrash chute.
Do you have any experience with the older b27 or b29 rimoldis?
I have a Rimoldi 3 thread. From memory the model is like 027 ,,, maybe. Anyway, I love it, smooth and such a clean stitch.
Looks a lot like the Singer 831 that my wife won't use. It sounds like it too.
🤔
Do you have any Rimoldi overlocks?
Yes, I have a 3 thread that I adore. You can see me use it here ruclips.net/video/OE60RWaJEco/видео.html

Hi Annete. Yes, this one will be for sale and I ship but it can be a bit expensive if you want the table and all. Just the head is more affordable but then you have to figure out how to mount.
