To reassemble the tension dial on a Singer Touch & Sew 600E sewing machine, follow these steps:
1. Identify the parts: You should have a numbered tension dial, tension discs, a tension spring, a check spring, a stud or shaft, and possibly a nut or clip to hold it in place.
2. Place the tension discs: Slide the two tension discs onto the stud. The concave sides should face each other so the thread will pass between them.
3. Install the check spring: Place the small check spring (if present) onto the stud. It should engage with the notch or groove in the shaft to provide tension.
4. Install the tension spring: This spring applies pressure to the tension discs. Place it on the stud against the discs.
5. Attach the numbered dial: Align the dial so that the numbers are in the correct orientation. Push it onto the stud over the tension spring.
6. Secure the assembly: Use a nut, clip, or screw (depending on your model) to hold everything in place on the shaft. Tighten it just enough so the dial turns but holds its position.
7. Test the tension: Turn the dial and check that the discs tighten and loosen appropriately. Thread the machine and test stitch to confirm proper tension.
Make sure all parts are clean and undamaged before reassembly.

What tension is required for Jean's material

The correct tension setting for sewing jeans with the Singer Touch & Sew 600E depends on the fabric thickness, thread type, and needle size. Generally, follow these guidelines:
1. Upper Thread Tension: Set the tension between 5 and 7. Denim is a thick fabric, so a higher tension helps create balanced stitches. 2. Bobbin Tension: The factory preset bobbin tension should work, but if adjustments are needed, ensure the thread pulls smoothly with slight resistance. 3. Needle Selection: Use a size 16 or 18 needle designed for denim or heavy fabrics. 4. Thread Type: Use heavy-duty polyester or cotton-wrapped polyester thread for strong seams. 5. Stitch Length: Set the stitch length to 3–4 mm for durability. 6. Presser Foot Pressure: Adjust to provide even fabric feeding.
Test on scrap denim before sewing to fine-tune the settings.

Your Singer Touch & Sew 600E sewing machine may be tangling and not attaching to the material properly due to several possible reasons:
1. Incorrect Threading – Ensure the upper thread is correctly threaded through the tension discs, take-up lever, and needle. Misthreading can cause loops and tangles.
2. Bobbin Issues – Check that the bobbin is wound evenly and placed correctly in the bobbin case. An improperly inserted bobbin can cause thread jams.
3. Tension Problems – If the upper or bobbin thread tension is too loose or too tight, stitches may not form correctly. Adjust the tension settings as needed.
4. Dirty or Jammed Machine – Lint, dust, or thread buildup in the bobbin area or feed dogs can cause thread tangling. Clean the machine regularly.
5. Needle Issues – A bent, dull, or incorrectly inserted needle can prevent proper stitching. Replace the needle if necessary and ensure it is inserted correctly.
6. Feed Dog Problems – If the feed dogs are lowered or not working properly, the fabric may not move correctly, causing stitching issues. Ensure they are raised and clean.
7. Incorrect Thread or Fabric – Using the wrong thread type or poor-quality thread can cause tangling. Ensure the thread matches the fabric and needle type.
8. Presser Foot Position – If the presser foot is not down while sewing, the fabric may not feed properly, leading to loops and tangles.
9. Timing Issues – If the machine’s timing is off, the needle and bobbin thread may not form stitches correctly. This may require professional adjustment.
Check these areas and make necessary adjustments to resolve the issue.

If the fabric gets caught underneath the presser foot on a Singer Touch & Sew 600E sewing machine, follow these steps to free it:
1. Turn Off the Machine – Ensure the machine is powered off to prevent accidental movement. 2. Raise the Needle and Presser Foot – Turn the handwheel toward you until the needle is at its highest position. Lift the presser foot lever to release pressure on the fabric. 3. Gently Remove the Fabric – Carefully pull the fabric backward or slightly to the side. Avoid forcing it to prevent damage to the fabric or machine. 4. Check for Thread Tangles – If the fabric is still stuck, remove the bobbin case and throat plate to check for tangled threads. Cut any threads with small scissors. 5. Reassemble and Re-thread – Once the fabric is free, reassemble the bobbin case and throat plate. Re-thread both the upper thread and bobbin. 6. Test on Scrap Fabric – Before resuming your project, sew on a scrap piece of fabric to ensure the machine is working correctly.
To prevent future jams, use the correct thread tension, hold thread tails when starting to sew, and regularly clean the bobbin area.
