SEWING IN REVERSE
When you wish to sew backward to tie the threads at the beginning or the end of a seam,
press the R button (14 Fig. 12-C) down as far as it will go. The machine will sew backward
as long as the button is held in.
ADJUSTING THE TENSION
Always adjust the upper tension with the presser foot down,
as
the
tension
is
automatically
released
when
it
is
raised.
To
increase the tension on the upper thread, turn dial (Fig. 13) to
the right, or clockwise. To decrease, turn to the left. The higher
the number on the dial the tighter the tension. Before adjusting
lower tension be sure that the machine is threaded properly.
When
necessary
to
change
the
bobbin
tension,
turn
small
screw (Fig. 14) on side of the bobbin case clockwise to tighten,
counterclockwise to loosen.
