This item was found at my parents' house. I am listing it as a junk item because it has not been used for a while. I confirmed that it powers on when plugged in. When the foot pedal is pressed, the motor makes a sound. I don't know how to use it beyond that. I hope someone who can fix it themselves or use it for parts will purchase it, even if something is broken. Everything shown in the photos is included.

The baby lock PROFESSOR 201-30 is a 1-needle, 3-thread overlock sewing machine previously sold by the Japanese sewing machine manufacturer baby lock (baby lock Co., Ltd.). It is a model mainly found in the used market (like Mercari) and specializes in overlocking to prevent fabric edges from fraying.

Key Features:
1-Needle, 3-Thread Specification: Suitable for overlocking fabric edges and for narrow rolled hemming.
Simple Operation: This is a model from before the popularization of features like automatic tension control (Just Fit System) and Air Threading (automatic needle threading) found in modern machines like the Itotori Monogatari. It is a type that requires manual tension adjustment.

Uses: Used for finishing the edges of cut-and-sew items like T-shirts, and for rolled hemming on the hems of blouses and skirts.

Precautions:
Discontinued Model: It is difficult to obtain new. For parts procurement and repairs, you may need to check with baby lock's official repair service or specialized sewing machine shops.
Threading: It does not have air-pressure threading like the latest models, so manual threading using tweezers is required.

Product Background:
The Professor series is one of baby lock's early hit series, dating back to 1968 (Showa 43) when they released the world's first compact home overlock sewing machine. It is known as a robust machine that has been used by many enthusiasts for a long time.
