4-3. Adjusting the thread tension

1.  Thread tension (needle thread)

  The needle thread tension is increased by 

turning thread tension screw 

 clockwise or 

decreased by turning it counterclockwise as 

shown in the figure. Finished state of sewn 

products varies depending on sewing condi-
tions such as the material, thread and stitch 
length. It is therefore necessary to adjust the 
thread tension appropriately according to the 
sewing conditions.

2.  Bobbin thread

  Turn thread tension screw of the bobbin with 

a screwdriver while fitting the screwdriver in 

screw slot 

 as shown in the figure. The thread 

tension is increased by turning the thread ten-
sion screw with the screwdriver clockwise or 
decreased by turning it counterclockwise.

Increase

WARNING :

To protect against possible personal injury due to abrupt start of the machine, be sure to start the 

following work after turning the power off and ascertaining that the motor is at rest.
