ADJUSTING THREAD TENSION
Some Special Stitch patterns may require looser thread tension than others. To find the
proper tension for your application, make a test sample with the thread and fabric you
will be using.
Proper tension
produces a smooth, even
stitch (i).
Too much tension will produce a tight
stitch (2), causing fabric to pucker.
Adjust tension by moving lever up toward
a looser setting.
Too little tension will produce a loose
stitch (3), causing loops in your pattern.
Adjust tension by moving lever down
toward a tighter “ + ” setting.
ADJUSTING STITCH BALANCE
You can adjust the appearance of special color coded stitch patterns on the display
panel, by turning the Stitch balance ring (1) behind the pattern selector dial (2).
A correctly balanced Fagoting Stitch
should appear as illustrated (3).
