Thread Tension Settings
Set the thread tension to suit the type of fabric and thread used. As the number on the thread tension discs increases, the thread tension
becomes tighter. See Stitch Overview, page 15 for thread tension recommendations for each stitch.

Correct Thread Tension
Lower looper thread and upper looper thread should be well
balanced with the same tension (both looper threads should cross
at the edge of the fabrics). Needle threads should not be too
loose or too tight, but equally balanced tension.

right side of the fabric. Tighten the thread tension of the lower
