TOP THREAD TENSION
LooseTight
- Basic top thread tension setting: “4”
- To increase the tension, turn the dial to the next number up. To reduce the tension, turn the dial
to the next number down.
- Proper setting of tension is important to good sewing.
- There is no single tension setting appropriate for all the stitch functions and fabrics.
- 90% of all sewing will be between “3” and “5” (“4” is basic setting).
- For all decorative sewing you will always obtain a nicer stitch and less fabric puckering when
top tension is reduced by 1 number so the upper thread appears on the bottom side of your
fabric.
1. Normal thread tension for straight stitch
sewing. Top and bobbin thread lock in the
fabric.
2. Thread tension is too loose for straight
stitch sewing. Turn dial to higher number.
Top thread loops on wrong side.
3. Thread tension is too tight for straight stitch
sewing. Turn dial to lower number. Bobbin
thread loops on top side.
4. Normal thread tension for zigzag and
decorative sewing.
