    I tried doing this. but the numbers only got up to 34, and I kept tightening the tension knobs and it still wouldn't get past 34. What am I doing wrong???

      @@MadeiraUSA What about corresponding bobbin thread? You said that your top and bobbin thead need to work together. If you're using a magnetic and it's set at around 22, would you still set the top at 170 for the Poly 40?

      @@marekmichalczyk7720 typically you set it 1:5 ratios. So if you do 170 on top, divide that by 5 and you'll get 34.

    Do you thread the needle when measuring the Top Tension?

      Yes you do! Through the needle and the presser foot.

    Am I supposed to turn the knobs at the top of the machine near the thread holder or the knobs in the middle that you turn the thread 1.5 times around?
