One-Step BERNINA Air Threader
Thread the machine by one simple step! The threads are magically moved through the machine via one simple step on the foot control. So both hands remain free. The L890 automatically sets the loopers in the correct position for the air threader – no turning the handwheel or searching for the right position. Simply press the foot control and you're off!
Intuitive operation via touch screen
Centrally located Colour Touch Screen with Bernina Sewing Consultant, Stitch Optimiser & helpful animations in Expert or Guided Mode. Stitch selection, individual stitch settings or stitch memory – the touch screen has all available & allows you to make changes while sewing. Advanced users can apply all settings directly in Expert Mode, while the Guided Mode offers step-by-step instructions.
Both automatically set the thread tension, stitch length & selection along with the differential feed.
Perfect seams due to Total Stitch Control
With the L890 you can change all settings individually and save up to 100 stitches in your Personal Memory. Also, stitch length, differential feed, thread tension, cutting width or any other stitch parameter can be adjusted while sewing. A simple turn of the mtc (Micro Thread Control) lets you modify the amount of overedge thread.
Convenient features you'll love
By pressing the foot control with your heel, you can easily raise or lower the needle by a half stitch. The BERNINA Free Hand System (FHS) lets you raise and lower the presser foot with your knee, leaving both your hands free to guide the fabric.
Grand sewing space
The space offered on the L890 is generous by any definition. It has more room to the right of the needle (5 5/8") and more work space height than any other BERNINA overlocker. Sew closed items with ease by simply sliding sleeves or cuffs over the convenient freearm.
Fast, precise & quiet
Not only can you sew quickly (1,350 stitches per minute), you can also sew stitch-by-stitch, making the flawless production of precise lines and curves a simple process. Plus, you will enjoy how extremely quiet the BERNINA L 890 sews. Program and control the maximum and minimum speeds via the colour touch screen.
The perfect seam for every idea
The L890 sews using 2, 3, 4 or 5 threads, providing the perfect seam for every design. From stretchy knits to the most loosely woven fabrics the L890 has the perfect stitch for particularly highly elastic and knitted materials, and threads. Combine both overlock, cover- and chainstitches for extra durable seams using 4- or 5-thread combo stitches.
Quick threading
Easily change from one stitch to another the colour-coded one-path threading enables you to easily switch between Overlock, Coverstitch or Combo stitches in no time at all. Every machine set-up and operation is supported with animations accessible on the colour touch screen.
