As you turn the dial clockwise, you are increasing the tension. Anticlockwise, decreasing it. The lighter the pressure on the dial the lighter the upper tension is in the fabric. What we are looking for, in a perfect stitch, is one that is interlocked evenly in the middle of the fabric layer Make sure the tension unit is working. Whatever number your tension dial goes up to, place it at half that, so you are in the middle of the dial. If your dial is un-numbered, turn from lowest to highest tension and judge the halfway point, set the adjustment to that point. Put a reel of thread on your machine and thread the monster. Finally pull the thread through the needle's eye with the foot raised.
