12.2 Tips & tricks

Sometimes minor user errors can lead to the sloppy appearance of seams

or sewing problems (broken threads, loops, jamming, catching etc.).
W6 Wertarbeit offers you the following assistance (please work through it

systematically at your own pace. Stick precisely to the order of the tips as

each tip provides the foundation for the next):

12.2.1

Checking the thread quality

Does your thread fluff up or break very quickly? This indicates poor-quality

thread or that the thread is old (layered). Poor thread may damage the

thread tensioning system of your cover in the long term.
Check the quality of the thread by pulling strongly on the thread with your

thumbnail and index fingernail.
