  3. Raise the presser foot (F) and bring the spool thread around to the front. Pull it gently up and you will see that it has caught the bobbin thread. Pull the two threads towards the rear (away from you) and lay them under the presser foot (F).

Part 5 – Adjusting Tension

  2. Loosen the stitch by turning the tension screw (N) counterclockwise.
  3. Tighten the stitch by turning the tension screw (N) clockwise. Sewing heavier fabric may require loosening the stitch. Very light fabric may require tightening the stitch. Bobbin tension cannot be adjusted.

Troubleshooting

No electric power

  • Possible reasons: There is a problem with the external power supply, or it’s incorrectly plugged.
  • Solution: Check on the external power supply and/or check/replace the plug.

Broken threads

  • Possible reasons: The reasons can be due to the fact that the line button is rigid, or the sewing thread or fabric is too thick or too hard. It also can be due to the fact that an incorrect or a broken needle is in use.
  • Solution: To resolve the break, make sure to relax the line button, replace the bobbin, replace the original machine needle and tighten the thimble screw or ensure the use of compatible fabric.
