Needle

thread

tension

In

order

to

achieve

a

perfectly

sewn

seam,

the

needle

thread

and

bobbin

thread

tensions

must

be

correctly

adjusted

to

each

other.

The

normal

setting

of

the

upper

tension

for

utility

stitches

is

in

the

range

from

4

to

5.

Check

the

tension

using

a

wide

zigzag

stitch.

The

thread

interlace

must

be

between

the

layers

of

fabric.

From

the

top

of

the

fabric,

you

should

see

a

tiny

"dot"

of

the

bobbin

thread.

From

the

back,

you

should

see

a

tiny

"dot"

of

the

top

thread.

If

the

needle

thread

tension

is

too

tight,

the

interlace

will

be

on

the

top

side

of

the

fabric.

If

the

needle

thread

tension

is

set

too

loose,

the

interlace

will

be

on

the

reverse

side

of

the

fabric.

Adjustment

of

the

bobbin

thread

tension

is

described

on

page

22.

Feed

aid

for

thick

seams

Tip:

To

ensure

precise

feeding

at

the

beginning

of

a

thick

seam,

we

recommend

placing

a

piece

of

fabric

of

the

same

thik-

kness

as

the

work

under

the

sewing

foot

to

support

it.

Top

stitching

Straight

stitch

can

be

sewn

with

13

different

needle

positions

allowing

you

to

always

guide

the

sewing

foot

along

the

fabric

edge

for

top

stitching

work.

The

distance

between

the

rows

of

topstitching

is

then

determined

by

the

needle

positions.

If

you

wish

to

begin

your

topstitching

further

from

the

fabric

edge,

simply

use

the

guide

marks

on

the

needle

plate,

or

the

edge

guide.

The

guide

marks

are

given

in

cm

and

inches.

The

edge

guide

is

inserted

into

hole

C

and

is

secured

with

fixing

screw
