• Correct balance
– Set each tension dial to recommended setting
and test sew on a sample of your fabric.
• How to balance the thread tension
When the lower looper thread tension is too loose;
– Turn the lower looper thread tension dial (red)
toward a higher number.
PLEASE NOTE:
– These are suggested tension settings only.
– Tension settings are effected by;
1. Type and thickness of fabric
2. Needle size
3. Size, type and fiber content of thread
When the upper looper thread tension is too loose;
– Turn the upper looper thread tension dial (blue)
toward a higher number.
When the needle thread tension is too loose;
– Turn the needle thread tension dial (yellow or
green) toward a higher number.
– Or, turn the upper looper thread tension dial
(blue) toward a lower number.
