Sewing Information Tab - Husqvarna Viking SAPPHIRE 9650Q User Manual

SEWING INFORMATION TAB

Your machine will choose the best stitch settings for the
selected fabric. The Sewing Information tab consists of
three parts.
At the top of the tab you will see the Exclusive SEWING
ADVISOR choices that you have made; what fabric you
™
have chosen and what technique you wish to use.
Below the Exclusive SEWING ADVISOR
will see what needle to use, if stabilizer and/or glide sole is
needed.
In the lower part of your tab you will find the stitch
adjustments. Here you can make changes to your stitch
such as thread tension, set your machine to free-motion
sewing, activate Stitch Re-Start, activate tapering, adjust
stitch width, needle position, length, density, button sew-
on and buttonhole length. The icons in this part of the
window changes depending on which stitch you have
chosen. These changes only affect the selected stitch. Your
changed settings will be reset to default when selecting
another stitch. The changed settings are not automatically
saved when turning your machine off. You can save the
adjusted stitch in My Stitches (see page 4:5).
Thread Tension
Your machine automatically sets the best thread tension for
the selected stitch. The thread tension can be adjusted for
specialty thread, techniques or fabric. Touch + to increase
and - to decrease the needle thread tension.
To understand the correct thread tension, sew a few sample
straight stitches at different settings.
1. Begin with a tension that is too loose, i.e. set at the
lowest number. The bobbin thread will lie straight and
the top thread will be drawn to the underside of the
fabric.
2. If you set the tension at the highest number, the
bobbin thread will be visible on the top side of the
fabric. The seam may pucker and the top thread might
break.
3. The correct thread tension is set when the threads
interlock in between both fabric layers or, in the case
of decorative stitches, on the underside.
