| Threading 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.D804, through hole in top of cone and securely lock in position with wing nut, part No.D805. 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.

| Thread Tension in the
machine
Thread tension is the degree of resistance the thread meets in passing between the tensions discs, Part No. D-114. 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.D116. Turn lower tension nut, part No.117, 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.
