Bobbin Threading and Tensioning
The proper bobbin tension and installation also play an integral role in the
quality and efciency of an embroidery sewout.
What Type of Bobbin?
For the best results with your machine, use Style L continuous polyester
lament bobbins.
Removing the Bobbin Case
CAUTION: Never attempt to remove or insert the bobbin while the
machine is in operation.
The bobbin case can be removed from the
lower arm of the machine by locating the
release lever on the bobbin case.
Pull forward on this lever until the case is free
from the machine.
Remove the old bobbin from the case.
Cleaning the Bobbin Case
It is recommended that you clean under the tension
spring of your machine bobbin case every time you
change the bobbin.
Lint and bobbin wax can build up under the spring, and
this can affect bobbin tension. To clean under the spring,
slide a corner of a small piece of paper under the tension
spring in the same direction the thread travels. While
cleaning under the tension spring, be careful not to bend
the spring.
After cleaning the bobbin case, blow the case out with compressed air. It is
also recommended that you check the bobbin tension.
