  1. Insert the Bobbin: Place a wound bobbin into the new bobbin case. Ensure the thread unwinds in the correct direction (usually counter-clockwise when viewed from the top, but refer to your sewing machine's manual for specific guidance).
  2. Thread the Bobbin Case: Guide the bobbin thread through the tension spring slot on the side of the bobbin case. Pull the thread gently until it slides under the tension spring and emerges from the small opening.

Regular maintenance of your bobbin case will ensure consistent sewing performance.

  • Kontrola: Regularly inspect the bobbin case for any signs of wear, nicks, or burrs, especially on the edges where the thread passes. Such imperfections can snag the thread and cause breakage or skipped stitches.
  • Regulacja napięcia: The bobbin case has a small screw for tension adjustment. Only adjust this screw if you are experienced and confident in doing so, as incorrect tension can lead to sewing problems. Small adjustments can be made with a precision screwdriver.
