Machine Manual

The Juki MO-1000 is a home serging machine that takes all the hassle out of threading a serger. This model is loaded with important features that not only produce a great seam but take the mystery out of serging. Perfect for the sewist just learning to serge, the MO-1000 offers all the quality that Juki is noted for in a compact, convenient machine.

The MO-1000 is a 4-thread, 2-needle serger and overlock machine that comes packed with the most important features, including Juki’s special Jet-Air threading technology. No longer is threading the loopers a hassle, as this machine threads itself at the push of a button using only a burst of air sent from the electric motor! Threading mistakes, struggling with thread guides, and poor-quality stitches are a thing of the past with the MO-1000.

In addition to the amazing air looper threader, the MO-1000 also has automatic needle threading, an upper looper 2-3 thread converter function, and knob-adjustable differential feed. It also has easy stitch length and thread tension dials for perfect, custom adjustment with any fabric. These and other features make serging different types of fabrics, including knits, quick and easy while obtaining the best results. It has a top sewing speed of 1500 SPM for quick, easy serging, overlocking, and hemming.

The throat between the top of the machine and the needle plate is over 70mm high, providing ample space for working. The workspace is brightly lit by a built-in, cool-running LED light that, combined with the throat space, makes the MO 1000 very user-friendly and easy to work with.

Other features of the Juki MO-1000 that make it a versatile machine for producing professional quality garments and other items include adjustable presser foot pressure, cut width adjustment, the ability to deactivate the upper knives, a thread trimming blade, and a convenient waste collection bin to keep things neat. The machine also has a safety mechanism that prevents it from running while the presser foot is up.

The MO-1000 is a compact machine measuring approximately 13” x 11” but it’s 20 lb weight makes it solid and stable when in use. This quiet running machine comes with a standard presser foot, a supply of needles and a threader, a tweezer and other machine cleaning tools, thread nets, a guide bar, an accessory pouch, a vinyl cover, and much more.

Not your grandma's serger

This serger is amazing. Easy set-up, CD included. Way easier than the older versionsof sergers I've had in the past. Quieter, easy to use. Lots of info in the manual.Good price!

Does what is promised

After spending too much time threading & re-threading previously owned Brother sergers, finally purchased a keeper. Now I can actually finish projects in real time.

Simply amazing!

What an exceptional machine. This is my second Juki as well as my second serger. I was excited to unbox and try out this serger. There was a small amount of oil on lower part of the machine, as mentioned by other reviewers. I used a paper towel and degreaser to wipe everything down without any trouble. Threading was simply a breeze. Best of all, I was impressed with how quite and steady it ran. No vibration of the table and what beautiful stitches. I tried various settings and fabrics and everything worked great. Next I will remove left needle and try rolled hems and light sheer fabrics. Also, excited to see how it will perform on curves. So glad I made this purchase. Highly recommend it to any sewer, beginner or experienced.

Easiest serger!

It's a bit expensive, but so worth it for the easy threading and tangle-free serging.

A must have for people who enjoy sewing

I've been sewing for years and can't believe I'm just now getting a serger. The stitching is amazing on this machine. The cut fabric catcher is perfectly aligned to catch everything. It looks intimidating but I used a Youtube site to thread the machine. The air option is the only way to go. My old Janome 8080 has a large variety of stitches but the overlock quality isn't as neat at my new Juki MO-1000. In the past, I avoid fabrics that frayed but now I can buy any fabric that frays without concern. I'm just so pleased with with this machine.
