3. Lower the presser lifting lever, attach
SHAPPE SPAN # 60 to the tension
gauge, and turn the adjusting nut to
adjust so that the tension is 0.588 [N]
(approx. 60 g).
4. After the adjustment, set the tension
cam to the groove in the adjusting nut
so that the convex of the tension cam
is in the position which is lower by
approximately 7 mm than the crest line

The tension knob has the structure which can make the correction when the needle thread tension is desired
to be corrected after assembling the front panel and the thread spool cover.
1. In case of increasing the needle thread tension
1) Turn the tension knob in the direction of “a”
until it comes in contact with the stopper.
2) Move (shift) the tension knob to the right side
and the engagement with the tension cam is
disengaged. On this condition, turn the tension
knob in the direction of “a”.
2. In case of decreasing the needle thread tension
1) Turn the tension knob in the direction of “b”
until it comes in contact with the stopper.
2) Move (shift) the tension knob to the right side
and the engagement with the tension cam is
disengaged. In this state, turn the tension
knob in the direction of “b”.
* After performing the adjustment of 5-1-12,
re-adjust so that the thread tightness ratio is
100 to 108 % with cotton broad cloth and
