ADJUSTING THE THREAD TENSION

The thread tension must be properly balanced. If adjustment is required, it can be made by
changing the upper thread tension.
Correct thread tension: upper and bobbin threads should interlock in the middle of fabric.
When bobbin thread appears on top side
of fabric:
Turn the tension dial to a lower number to
loosen the upper thread tension.
Thread tension for zigzag stitches:
To sew zigzag stitches, the thread tension should be set to a slightly weaker tension than when
sewing straight stitches. You will obtain a nicer stitch when upper thread appears on bottom side
of fabric.
