9 He vy 8 material 7 6 Medium material 5 Ugh i ma 'gal 3 2 1 0 Thread tension scale The thread tension may vary slightly depending on the type of material and the type and thickness of the thread. Therefore, adjust the tension to suit the sewing conditions. A balanced stitch length can be obtained if the tension is adjusted so that it is tighter (higher #) for thick materials and looser (lower #) for thin materials as shown in the illustration at left. Order of thread tension adjustment When you adjust the thread tension, do it in the following order: FIVE-THREAD OVERLOCK STITCH 1) Left needle thread (red) 2) Upper looper thread (green) 3) Lower looper thread (blue) 4) Double chain stitch needle thread (yellow) 5) Double chain stitch looper thread (purple) FOUR-THREAD OVERLOCK STITCH 1) Left needle thread (yellow) 2) Right needle thread (red) 3) Upper looper thread (green) 4) Lower looper thread (blue) This is the easiest way to obtain correct thread tension. - 36 -
