Thread tension (Fig. 13) BERNINA offers the unique advantage that the thread tension must never be changed. Only two marked lines are provided for control. When the fixed marked line on top arm and the dot on mobile part of thread tension device are set one above the other, the perfect thread tension is attained. - With BERNINA sewing machines a numbered scale is not necessary. By means of the adjusting disc 9 the thread tension can be changed for special purposes wished for. If the marked line is moving behind sight hole 10 to the right, the thread tension will be reinforced; if said marked line is moving to the left, the tension will be weaker. Correct normal tension is set when the mobile marked line is right above fixed marked line on sight hole. Drawing up the under thread (Fig. 14) Before sewing can be started, the under thread should be drawn up. With thumb and forefinger of the left hand hold the end of the needle thread, leaving it slack from hand to needle. Turn handwheel with one single revolution towards you, until, protruding from the needle eye, the thread causes the needle lever to ascend to its highest position. Now draw a little bit the end of the needle thread, whereby the under thread will come through the stitch hole towards above. Tighten upper and under thread slightly and pass them backwards under the presser foot. rig. 13 44 10 9 rig. 14 tP• el IF 17
