Balancing Thread Tension

The thread tension should be adjusted depending on

the sewing materials, layers of fabric and sewing

method.

To adjust the thread tension, turn the tension dial.

Balanced tension:

The ideal straight stitch has threads locked between

two layers of fabric.

For an ideal zigzag stitch, the bobbin thread does not

show on the right side of the fabric, and the needle

thread shows slightly on the wrong side of the fabric.

e Needle thread

r Bobbin thread

t Right side of the fabric

y Wrong side of the fabric

Needle thread tension is too tight:

–if the bobbin thread appears on the right side of the

fabric.

Loosen the needle thread tension by moving the dial

to a lower number.

Needle thread tension is too loose:

–if the needle thread appears on the wrong side of

the fabric.

Tighten the needle thread tension by moving the dial

to a higher number.

Raising and Lowering the Presser Foot

The Presser foot lifter raises and lowers the presser

foot.

You can raise the presser foot about 6 mm (1/4")

higher than the normal up position by exerting more

pressure when lifting the presser foot lifter. This

allows for easy removal of the presser foot and helps

you to place thick fabric under the foot.
