I, . -IiI General notes on embroidery To enhance your own home textiles or garments the tiptronic 2040 and 2030 offer you a wide variety of fancy and decorative stitches• You can produce even greater embroidery variations by combining different patterns, colors and sizes. For embroidery work we recommend using special embroidery threads which are available from your PFAFF dealer. For areas to be embroidered you should always use an iron-on backing or other stabilizer under the fabric. Properly stabilizing your fabric will help eliminate distortion of your embroidery stitches. Mark your embroidery lines with a fabric marking pen or chalk. It is important to use only fabric marking pens/pencils. These marks can be removed after completing of your embroidery work. The following recommendations apply to all embroidery work: The stitch length and width can he altered as desired. Thread tension: • Lower the upper thread tension to between 2-3. Adjust as needed so bobbin thread does not pull to the top side of your project. Your embroidery results will be much prettier if your tension is properly adjusted. if needed, the bobbin thread tension can be increased/decreased to produce a consistent quality and a three-dimensional appearance to your work (see page 25). Presser feet: Presser feet No. I (for dual feed> and No. 2 (without dual feed) are most suitable for embroidery work. We recommend presser foot No. 2 for difficult to handle fabrics. 118
