Bobbin Thread Winding Adjustment
If the wound bobbin thread is not tight, tighten
the thread tension by turning the tension stud
thumb nut of the bobbin winder (A). If the wound
bobbin is not even, loosen screw (B) and move
tension bracket (C) to the right when the bobbin
is not filling enough on the right or move it to
the left when the bobbin is not filling enough on
the left. An even fill is desired. Once it is filling
properly, tighten screw (B).

Do not overfill the bobbin as the thread may
jamb in the bobbin case. Fill it to about 80% of
bobbin’s outside diameter (16). Use the stop
latch screw (D) to control the fill. Rotate the
screw clockwise to increase the amount of
thread on the bobbin and counterclockwise to
decrease the amount of thread.
NOTE: The metal finger (E) can be bent by
hand if more adjustment is required.
