ADJUSTING BOBBIN THREAD TENSION RÉGLAGE DE LA TENSION DU FIL INF É RIEUR AJUSTE DE LA TENSION DEL HILO DE LA BOBINA

BOBBIN THREAD TENSION REQUIRES ADJUSTMENT LESS FREQUENTLY THAN THE TOP THREAD TENSION.

If the tension is well balanced, but the fabric puckers badly, both top and bobbin thread tensions may be too tight and have to be adjusted.

To test if the bobbin thread tension is correct, suspend the bobbin case by the thread and jerk it once. Correct bobbin tension will result in the thread unwinding only one or two inches. If too loose it will unwind continuously. If too tight the thread will not unwind at all.

When adjusting the tension on the bobbin case, make only slight adjustments with a screwdriver.

Le fil de la canette ne nécessite pas des ajustements aussi fréquents que pour le fil supérieur.

Si la tension est bien balancée, mais que le tissu plisse énormément, il se peut que la tension du fil supérieur et inférieur sois trop forte et doivent être ajustées. Pour vérifier si le fil de la canette est bien équilibré, suspendre le boîtier de la cannette en le retenant par le fil et faite une seule fois un mouvement de bas en haut. Une tension équilibrée fera que la canette se dévidera de 1 à 2 pouces (2 à 3cm). Si la tension est trop lâche la canette se dévidera continuellement. Si la tension est trop serrée la canette ne se dévidera pas.

Lorsque vous devez ajuster la tension du boîtier de la canette, faite seulement un petit ajustement avec un tournevis.

LA TENSION DEL HILO DE LA BOBINA REQUIERE AJUSTE MENOS FRECUENTE QUE LA TENSION DEL HILO SUPERIOR.

Si la tensión está bien equilibrada, pero el tejido se arruga mucho, ambas tensiones del hilo superior e inferior, pueden estar demasiado apretadas y se tendrán que ajustar. Para probar si es correcta la tensión del hilo de la bobina, suspender la cápsula bobina por el hilo y sacudirla una vez. Si la tensión de la bobina es correcta, el hilo se desenrollará una o dos pulgadas. Si es demasiado floja se desenrollará por completo. Si es demasiado fuerte el hilo no se llegará a desenrollar en ningún momento.

Cuando se está ajustando la tensión en la cápsula bobina, realizar sólo unos ajustes ligeros con un destornillador.
