Embroidery Thread
Thread Path through the moving head
-
Proper Thread Routing:
All threads
must
be routed
correctly at all points along the path through the sewing
head.
-
Practice good thread “Discipline”:
After threading all
needles, ensure there is no slack anywhere along the
thread path. Make sure to:
-
Pull all threads
– to ensure thread feeds smoothly
and turns the break sensor, and all slack is removed
from around thread cones
-
“Dock” all thread ends
from each needle onto the
thread-holding spring. Prevents thread from coming
loose and catching where not desired.
Upper Tensioner
Thread only makes
½ turn – make sure
it passes to the left
between the 2 metal
discs.
Lower Tensioner
Thread makes 1 full turn
clockwise around the base of the
knob – make sure it runs in the
V-shaped groove of the spoked
wheel.
Thread Break Sensor
Thread this like the upper
tensioner – ½ turn to the left.
Make sure the thread falls in
the groove as shown.
