1. Place the bobbin in the bobbin case
so that the thread pulls off clockwise
when viewing the open side.
2. Slide the thread through the slot and
under the tension spring, leaving
approximately five to six inches of
thread hanging loose.
To Test Bobbin Tension
The bobbin tension is the foundation for stitch tension. Always set the bobbin tension first.
NOTE
: Check the bobbin tension each time a new bobbin is inserted.
1. With the bobbin properly in the bobbin case, hold the bobbin case in the palm of your
hand with the open end facing up.
2. Wrap the thread two to three times around the index finger of the opposite hand and
attempt to lift the bobbin up by the thread. The bobbin case should stand up on its side,
and slightly lift out of your hand. If the bobbin will not stand up on its side, the bobbin
tension is too loose. If it lifts completely out of your hand and hangs by the thread, the
bobbin tension is too tight.
To adjust the Bobbin Tension
Make the adjustment using the screw in the
center of the tension spring. (The larger of
the 2 screws) Turn clockwise to tighten and
counterclockwise to loosen the tension. Make
tiny adjustments to the bobbin tension and
test again.
