throat plate.

Adjusting the thread tension

If the thread breaks while sewing, it means the thread tension is too high.
If small loops form while sewing, it means the thread tension is too low. The
thread tension must be adjusted in both cases. The upper thread and lower
thread tension must be proportional to each other.
The tension must also be different for different fabrics. The required tension
depends on the fabric's strength and thickness as well as on how many layers
of fabric are to be sewn.
We recommend that you test the stitching on a piece of fabric every time before
sewing.
− Turn the tension regulator for the upper thread
reduce the tension.
A higher tension is required for the upper thread in the case of light fabrics. If
the stitches are too loose, it means the upper thread tension is set too low.
− Turn the tension regulator for the upper thread clockwise to increase the
tension.
The bobbin thread tension cannot be adjusted.
