Correct tension for rolled hem
The illustration to the left shows a seam sewn at the
correct tension. Note that you may need to adjust the
thread tension depending on the fabric and thread being
used.

Use synthetic thread for the needle thread and woolly
nylon thread for the lower looper thread.
Set the lower looper pre-tension setting slider to STD.
Other settings are same as the 3-threads rolled hem (refer
to page 42).
For best results, make a test run using the fabric
and threads you want to use and adjust the tension
accordingly.
