5. Correct use 5-6-6. Pretension tension 0 0 CZ> 0 cE> O 1. Raise the work clamp 0 and open the main tension disc 0. The thread take-up spring 0 should not operate when the thread is pulled in the direction of the arrow. 2. Set the thread tension for the thread breakage detector pretension 0 to approx. 5 g. Weaken the thread tension for the machine head pretension 0 as much as possible. Standard for balance of thread tension Adjust the thread tensions so that the total tension for the pretensions 0 and 0 is lower than the tension for the thread take -up spring. NOTE If misoperation of the thread breakage detector continues, repeat the adjustment procedure above. (Such misoperation is most likely to occur when synthetic fiber yarns are used.)
