Adjusting Thread Tensions - Husqvarna VIKING H CLASS 200S Guide De L'utilisateur

ADJUSTING THREAD TENSIONS

Turning thread tension control dial to a higher number
gives a tighter thread tension. Turning the thread
control dial to a lower number gives a looser thread
tension. The higher the number, the tighter the tension.
Test thread tensions on a scrap of the fabric you plan
to use.
