The Machine
In most cases, your new machine
will have the Thread Cone already installed & the thread correctly
passing through all the points.
To install new cone of thread, push thread-clamping bolt, part
No.66804, through hole in top of cone and securely lock in position
with wing nut, part No.66805. Cone of thread must not rotate or
wobble on the thread stand. Follow illustration, being sure that
thread passed between the two tensions discs, parts No.D114. Thread
the needle from outside to the inside of the machine. Leave about
2" of thread dangling through the needle, and proceed to
sew the bags in normal manner.

Tension in the machine
Thread tension is the degree of
resistance the thread meets in passing between the tensions discs,
Part No. 66114. Too loose a tension will cause the thread to tear
or will leave loose loops of thread on the bag instead of nice
firm stitches. Too tight a tension will also cause the thread
to tear or will cause textile bag material to pucker. In either
case, the machine may not chain off. To alter the amount of tension,
loosen upper tension nut, part No.66116. Turn lower tension nut,
part No.66117, about 1/8 turn at a time-up to loosen tension,
or down to tighten tension-testing on material until desired stitch
appearance is obtained. Be sure to re-lock upper tension nut.
