- Test Tension: After installation, thread your machine and perform test stitches on a scrap piece of fabric to verify proper tension. Adjust the tension dial as needed (refer to the Operating Principles section).
Operating Principles: Thread Tension Adjustment
The tension assembly controls the upper thread. Correct tension is crucial for balanced stitches. The blue dial on the assembly allows for fine-tuning. Generally, a higher number on the dial indicates tighter tension, and a lower number indicates looser tension.
- Balanced Stitch: Both upper and bobbin threads meet evenly between the fabric layers.
- Loose Upper Tension: The bobbin thread appears on the top side of the fabric. Increase the upper tension by turning the dial to a higher number.
- Tight Upper Tension: The upper thread appears on the underside of the fabric. Decrease the upper tension by turning the dial to a lower number.
Always test tension on a scrap piece of the same fabric you will be sewing, using the same thread. Adjust in small increments.
Penyelenggaraan
Regular maintenance of your tension assembly helps prevent common stitching issues.
- Pembersihan: Periodically clean the tension discs to remove lint and thread residue. Use a small brush or a piece of thin fabric to gently clean between the discs.
- Pemeriksaan: Visually inspect the tension spring and discs for any signs of damage, bending, or wear. Ensure the tension dial turns smoothly.
- Elakkan keterlaluan: Do not overtighten the tension dial, as this can compress the spring excessively and lead to premature wear.
