Adjusting the Upper Thread Tension

The default setting of the upper thread tension is set automatically as soon as a stitch pattern is selected.

When using different types of sewing threads, the upper thread tension may vary. It may therefore be necessary to adjust the upper thread tension individually according to the sewing project as well as the desired stitch.

The higher the upper thread tension is set, the tighter the upper thread is tensioned, and the bobbin thread is pulled deeper into the fabric. When the upper thread tension is low, the upper thread is less tightened, and the bobbin thread is pulled up less into the fabric.

Alteration of the upper thread tension affect the currently stitch pattern. Permanent alterations of the upper thread tension for the sewing can be made in the Setup Program.
