How to fix upper and lower thread not tight on Brother Sewing Machine?
- Y
  ykingAug 21, 2025
  If the upper or lower thread is not tight on your Brother Sewing Machine, take these steps: First, ensure the thread is threaded correctly. If not, re-thread it properly. Next, adjust the upper and lower thread tension if they are too weak. If the thread take-up spring operating range is too small, lower the position of the stopper. If you're using a sewing machine with medium-weight material specifications, try replacing the presser foot with one that has slots on the underside, or replace the feed dog with a grooved feed dog.

Why is there excessive tension (puckering) in my Brother T-8752C seams?
- J
  Joseph GarciaAug 23, 2025
  Excessive tension or puckering in your Brother Sewing Machine seams can occur for several reasons. Ensure the upper and lower thread tensions are as weak as possible. Also, make the thread take-up spring tensions as weak as possible, and move the stopper to as high a position as possible to address the thread take-up spring operating range. Adjust the presser foot pressure if it's too strong. Reduce the sewing speed using the sewing speed control keys, and adjust the thread take-up amount if it's too small.

Why are loops appearing in the seam of my Brother T-8752C Sewing Machine?
- T
  Timothy HigginsAug 26, 2025
  Loops appearing in the seam of your Brother Sewing Machine could be due to a few reasons. Ensure the thread path is smooth by polishing it with a fine grain file or sandpaper. Check that the bobbin is turning smoothly; pull out the lower thread to check for slackness, or replace the bobbin or bobbin case. Finally, adjust the thread take-up amount if it is too large.

  Martha ChavezAug 28, 2025
  An uneven seam on your Brother Sewing Machine can be caused by a few factors. Check if the presser foot pressure is too weak and adjust it accordingly. Also, ensure the feed dog height is properly adjusted. If the bobbin is scratched, smooth it with an oiled grindstone or replace it.

- X
  Xavier LawsonSep 1, 2025
  Your Brother Sewing Machine might stop during sewing if the fixed stitch key is turned on. Press the fixed stitch key so that the indicator turns off. Another possible reason is that the power supply voltage is too low, so check the power supply.

What to do if the lower thread tangles at the start or the bobbin spins during trimming on my Brother T-8752C Sewing Machine?
- R
  Ryan CarterSep 10, 2025
  If you're experiencing lower thread tangling or bobbin spinning during thread trimming with your Brother Sewing Machine, check these points: Ensure the bobbin spins in the opposite direction to the rotary hook when the lower thread is pulled. Make sure the bobbin winding amount is not more than 80%. Attach the anti-spin spring if your model has a thread trimmer. Replace the bobbin if it's not turning smoothly. Use only bobbins specified by Brother.
