Bobbin thread
■
Cause
Incorrect bobbin threading
If the bobbin thread is incorrectly threaded, instead of the
appropriate tension being applied to the bobbin thread, it
is pulled through the fabric when the upper thread is
pulled up. For this reason, the thread is visible from the
right side of the fabric.
■
Remedy/check details
Correctly install the bobbin thread. (page 22)
Tangled thread on wrong side of fabric
■
Symptom
• The thread becomes tangled on the wrong side of the
fabric.
• After starting sewing, a rattling noise is made and
sewing cannot continue.
• Looking under the fabric, there is tangled thread in
the bobbin case.
■
Cause
Incorrect upper threading
If the upper thread is incorrectly threaded, the upper
thread passing through the fabric cannot be firmly pulled
up and the upper thread becomes tangled in the bobbin
case, causing a rattling noise.
■
Remedy/check details
Remove the tangled thread, and then correct the upper
threading.
a
Remove the tangled thread. If it cannot be removed,
cut the thread with scissors.

instructions in “Threading the upper thread” on
