Please note:
The settings shown in this table are our recommendations 
based on normal conditions. It may be necessary to adjust 
the thread tension according to the stitch, type of fabric 
and thread you are using. For best results make tension 
adjustments in small increments of no greater than half 
a number at a time. Always test sew on a sample of your 
fabric before sewing on your garment.
