Tension Adjustments on the Juki DDL-8700

Usually, our videos are pretty simple and linear, but this was more of a learning exercise. Our poor technician had to teach us, rookies, how to adjust to get the perfect stitch. Top, bobbin, and spring tensions are all touched on, very lightly, to balance out the tension for this lightweight cloth. It seems that if you watch this video carefully, you should be able to really learn how to adjust your Juki DDL-8700 for whatever material you're working with.

There is no way a person buying a machine from you would never need to adjust the tension. There are several factors that require tension to be adjusted. Fabric type, number of layers, thread, needle size. So no matter what you ship a machine adjusted for, they will need to know how to adjust the tension.

Yes, majority of the time you will have to adjust your machine based on the project you’re doing.
