The rule of thumb is that an Acti-feed setting of 1 is equivalent to 1 sheet of typing paper in thickness, 2 is two sheets, 3 is three sheets and so on. The thicker the material, the more thread that is needed to keep the thread laying on top of the garment, rather than trying to pull it through the material.
