Regulating
the Thread
Tension
The
bobbin
thread tension
rarely needs
adjusting,
except
for
embroidery
when
ii
should be
a
little
tighter
than
for
ordinary sewing.
Adjustment
is
made by
a
small knurled
screw on
the
bobbin case
which
can
be
turned
with
the
thumb
tip.
Turn
it
left
for
looser tension.
Turn
it
right
)*m
for
tighter
tension.
Determine
correct bobbin
tension
by
holding
the
thread end
between thumb
and
forefinger
and
letting the
bobbin case
hang
freely.
The
tension should be
strong enough
to
keep
the
bobbin case
from being
pulled down
by
its
own
weight.
However,
as
you
jerk
your
hand
slightly, the
bobbin case
should grad
ucilly
slide
down.
V
The
final
stitch
appearance
can
be
regulated
by
the
upper
tension
dial,
as
follows:
Turn left
EE(
for
looser tension.
Turn
right
))
for
tighter tension.
The
upper
tension is
so
designed
that
all
grades
of
ten
sion
—
loose
to tight
—
can
be
covered
with
one
complete
turn
of
the
tension
dial.
The
numbers on
the
tension dial
indicate
different
degrees of
tension.
The
higher
the
num
ber,
the
greater
the
tension.
Only
in
very
rare cases
will
it
be
necessary
to
reset
the
tension. For
ordinary
sewing, the
upper
tension should
be
set
at
about
5.
Your upper
tension
has
a third
tension disc
