Thread Tension

The type of thread or fabric you use may require
the tensions to be adjusted.
Before changing tensions, make sure the thread
is properly engaged in the tension discs.
Thread tensions are controlled by the color
coded dials - blue, red, yellow and green. Move
the dial that corresponds to the thread that needs
adjusting. (Larger numbers increase the tension;
smaller numbers decrease the tension.)
Adjust only one tension setting
then view the result before adjusting again.
