Adjusting the Thread
Tension of both the
Bobbin and Upper Thread
1
The following procedure describes how to adjust
the thread tensions. After adjusting the tension of
the bobbin thread, adjust the tension of the upper
thread for each needle bar.
Note
• Be sure to check the tension of the bobbin
thread each time that the bobbin is
changed.
Depending on the bobbin thread type and
whether a prewound bobbin is used, the
tension of the bobbin thread may differ. For
example, when replacing an empty
prewound bobbin with one of the same
type, be sure to check the tension of the
bobbin thread and adjust the tension if
necessary.
• Be sure to adjust the tension of the bobbin
thread before adjusting the tension of the
upper thread.
• In order to check the finished embroidery
before sewing on your project, sew trial
embroidery using the same fabric and
thread as those in your project.
