6. Lower looper thread
Thread tension is automatically set when selecting a stitch
but it may have to be fine tuned depending on:
• Type and thickness of the fabric
• Needle size
• Size, type and fiber content of the thread
See page 20 for how to adjust the thread tension settings.
The below describes how the tension settings can be adjusted
for 4–thread overlock stitch.
Correct Tension
Lower looper thread and upper looper thread should be well
balanced with the same tension (both looper threads should
cross at the edge of the fabrics). Needle threads should not
be too loose or too tight, but equally balanced tension.

tension of the upper looper.

threads.
When the left needle thread is too tight (F):
