● Never use a bobbin case that is scratched,
otherwise the upper thread may become
tangled, the needle may break or
embroidering performance may suffer. For
a new bobbin case (part code: XC8167-
251), contact your nearest authorized
service center.
● Be sure that the bobbin case is correctly
installed, otherwise the needle may break.
