J As all machines are correctly adjusted before leaving the factory and readjusted before but, if this becomes necessary, tighten the screw in the tension spring on the outside of the bobbin case for more tension, or loosen the screw slightly for lesser tension (Fig. 1 6 1 . //. *7o. the dealer delivers them to you, the lower tension seldom requires to be altered, the. ^¿titch Jle4ix^.th The length of stitch can be changed by adjusting the stitch length regulating lever "L" (Fig.

To adjust for correct pressure, use your automatic darner. When used right in co-ordination with t thread tension regulator and the drop feed dial, this automatic darner becomes an effective tool for good sewing results.

Lower the presser foot and resume sewing. TO SEW ELASTIC FABRICS: In sewing such elastic materials as jerseys, bias cut cloth, etc., it is advisable to sew them with reduced upper thread tension, otherwise the thread will break when the sewn materials are stretched.
