If bobbin winding is stopped before it is
finished
The bobbin winder stops automatically if the thread does
not feed, for example, if it becomes tangled on the spool
pin. If this occurs, correctly thread the bobbin winder, and
then wind the bobbin correctly.
Note
• When removing the bobbin, do not pull on the
bobbin winder seat. Doing so could loosen or
remove the bobbin winder seat, resulting in
damage to the bobbin winder.
CAUTION
• Check that the bobbin thread has been wound
correctly, otherwise the needle may break or
the thread tension will be incorrect.
• Be sure to clean the bobbin case each time
that the bobbin is changed. For details, refer to
“Cleaning the bobbin case” on page 175.
• Be sure to check the tension of the bobbin
thread each time that the bobbin is changed.
For detailed instructions on how to adjust the
bobbin tension, refer to page 116.
