How to adjust the looper thread tension

With the looper thread tension adjustment lever, fine adjustments can be made to the looper thread tension. When sewing stretch fabric or with a small stitch length, raise the lever to increase the tension of the looper thread. When sewing non-stretch fabric or with a large stitch length, lower the lever to reduce the tension of the looper thread.
