Whereas bobbin case tension is adjusted in minute increments, the top tension dial may need to be
adjusted a quarter to a half turn to balance the tension.
NOTE: Before adjusting your top tension remember to floss or pull the top thread up into the
tension discs or it will float outside the discs providing little or no top tension. This could cause
significant tension or nesting problems on the bottom side of the quilt.
NOTE: Dark threads will be heavier (because of dye) than light threads of the same weight. The type
or brand of thread may also affect tension settings. Each time you change threads, you will need to
check your tension.
Maintenance
Use only light sewing machine oil in the HQ Fusion. Internal oiling is not necessary on the HQ Fusion except
when the machine is taken to a service technician for routine maintenance and cleaning. The bobbin
basket assembly, however, needs regular lubricating. Failure to keep the bobbin assembly lubricated can
cause severe damage to the machine.
The frequency depends upon the usage of the machine. Lubricating is recommended before running the
machine if it has not been used regularly, or every bobbin change if used regularly. If you notice a change in
the sound of the machine or stitch quality, take the time then to clean and oil your machine as well.
To clean and lubricate the machine
1. Turn off the machine. Clean around the bobbin assembly with a soft brush to remove lint.
2. Remove the bobbin case and bobbin.
3. Put a very small drop of oil on the hook in the
bobbin assembly
Â
IMPORTANT: After oiling, always sew a scrap piece as oil may cling to thread. Over oiling can cause
excess dripping from the bobbin assembly.
