6.3 Adjusting the thread tension
The thread tension has a considerable influence on each individual thread and its task to perform the stitch
formation. The thread tension is preset for each stitch with a default value and does not have to be changed
until the test sewing.
The thread tension can be changed while sewing.
> To reduce the thread tension, set the thread tension fine adjustment to a lower value.
> To increase the thread tension, set the thread tension fine adjustment to a higher value.
An adjustment of the stitch formation can primarily be achieved by reducing the thread tension.
The thread tension can be changed using the fine adjustment buttons «+»/«-» or in the stitch view. (see
page34)
> By selecting the thread tension range, the thread tension can be adjusted individually for each thread
path.
> The slider control of each thread tension can be adjusted between 1 and 9.
