TIP: Lint has a tendency to build up
in the bobbin case, especially with
cotton threads. A tiny amount of lint
can cause a huge headache! Check
the bobbin each time you change it
to keep it clean.
Check the tension of the bobbin by holding the
loaded bobbin case in one hand. With one hand
under the bobbin case, hold the tail of thread and
watch as the thread flows out of the bobbin case.
A slight bounce should cause the bobbin case to
slide down the thread. If the thread slides out of
the case as you pick it up, it needs more tension.
If it barely moves down the thread or doesn’t
move at all, it needs less tension.
Use a small screwdriver to turn the largest set
screw on the bobbin case to adjust tension.
Make very, very small adjustments. Be very
careful not to remove the screw as it is very small
and difficult to find if lost. Remember, righty
(clockwise) tighty, lefty (counter clockwise) loosey.
To place the bobbin into the machine
1. Insert the bobbin into the bobbin case.
2. Holding the bobbin case, pull the thread
through the slot.
3. Draw the thread down and under the spring,
making sure the thread is in the highest
position of the bobbin case.
4. Place the bobbin case in the machine.
Always listen for the pop as it engages in the
machine.
We suggest using a soft bristle brush to wipe out
the bobbin case and the bobbin area. Canned
air only blows the lint around. By using the soft
bristle brush you collect the dust on the brush.
Each day before you start quilting, unthread
your machine past the take up lever and remove
the bobbin case. Place a small drop of oil in the
bobbin hook area before you begin quilting. This
will clean out the fuzz and lint. Place a drop of oil
in the bobbin hook area. Turn your machine on
to run at the slowest setting.
