10. Regulating the Thread Tensions
The proper regulation of tensions is very Important with the Pfaff 467 because this machine
Is chiefly intended for intricate sewing jobs requiring different feed settings. It greatly affects
the neat appearance of the finished seam and its durability.
As a rule, both tensions should be set as light as possible in order to avoid puckering on
"problem" materials.
Both tensions are correctly balanced if the needle and bobbin threads Interlock in the center
of the material, as shown in Fig. 11.
Fig. 11
The needle thread tension is increased by turning tension nut M (Fig. 12) in, and decreased,
by turning it out.
The bobbin thread tension is regulated by means of the small hook screwdriver. Turn tension
screw X in for more tension, or out, for less tension (Fig. 13).
The tension should be regulated according to the material to be sewn. Check to see that the
stitches are tightly set, without causing seam puckering, and lie in a straight line.
