thread tension -Method A
Use the chart below as a guide in setting tension.
The tension adjustments for Method A are the same as 1-needle, 3-thread
overlock. See page 13 if adjustments are needed.
ROLLED HEMMING -Method B
The upper looper thread encases the fabric edge in Method B rolled hem, creating a softer finish.
Settings and sewing of Method B rolled hem are the same as the Method A narrow hem except for thread tension.
