Contrary to an ordinary bulb, the CFL sewing
light has a better illumination and a longer
life.

Upper Thread Tension

The Basic Setting

• is indicated when the red line on the

tension adjustment wheel is in line with
the marking

• the tension does not need adjusting for

normal sewing work

• for special sewing work, the tension can

be adjusted to suit the fabric

Thread Tension Settings

Perfect Stitch Formation
• the stitch formation is in the fabric

Upper Thread Tension too Tight

• the lower thread is pulled more to the
