4.10 Thread tension

Together with the hook thread tension, the needle thread tension influences the final seam
pattern.
The needle thread tension is defined by the pre-tensioner, the main tensioner and the
additional tensioner.
Proper setting
If the tension of needle thread and hook thread is identical, the thread interlacing lies in the
middle of the sewing material.
Set the needle thread tension so that the desired seam pattern is achieved with the lowest
possible tension.
