Operating your MEGA QUILTER™

Balancing the thread tension

The thread tension should be adjusted depending on the sewing materials, layers of
fabric and sewing method. Set the required thread tension with the thread tension dial.
Balanced tension:
The ideal straight stitch has threads locked
between two layers of fabric, as shown in
the picture.
Thread tension is too tight:
If the needle thread tension is too high
the threads are interlaced above the top
fabric. Loosen the needle thread tension by
turning the dial to the left.
Thread tension is too loose:
If the needle thread tension is too low
the threads are interlaced below the lower
fabric. Tighten the needle thread tension
by turning the dial to the right.
