If you find that the bobbin thread is visible on the top side of the fabric or that the top thread is visible on the underside of the fabric, you need to adjust the thread tension. Press the thread tension icon (A), + and - to set the required amount of the needle thread tension. Your adjustments will be reset when you select a new stitch or design. To save your alterations for the next time you sew see page 3:12. A Thread tension For the best stitch appearance and durability make sure the needle thread tension is correctly adjusted, i. e. the threads evenly meet between the two fabric layers. The following is valid for general sewing work: Preparations Bobbin thread is visible on the top side of the fabric: The needle thread tension is too tight. The needle thread tension must be reduced. Top thread is visible on the underside of the fabric: The needle thread tension is too loose. The needle thread tension must be increased. For decorative stitches and buttonholes the top thread should be visible on the underside of the fabric. 2:13 Threading the needle Raise the presser foot. Make sure that both threads are placed underneath the bobbin winder thread guide. During threading in the left threading slot, make sure that you pass one thread to the left and one thread to the right sides of the tension disk (A). Continue threading in the usual manner, making sure the threads do not become twisted together. Preparations Pull the right thread into the right thread guide and thread the right needle. Pull the left thread into the left thread guide and thread the left needle. It is not possible to use the automatic needle threader with a twin needle. 2:15 Presser foot lift The presser foot is raised or lowered with the presser foot lift.
