[amayausers] Re: Bobbin Question?

Bobbin thread showing on TOP of the fabric (outside the text or  
design) means bobbin is too loose, and the thread is pulling it back  
up with it. Before you tighten the bobbin, make sure you have cleaned  
under the tension 'strip' and also inside-and the 'pigtail'...common  
place for gunk to hangup. Then adjust the thread tension, but only a  
fraction of a 'turn' at a time-it is very sensitive. We found when we  
switched to actifeed, we had to tighten it enough to almost not drop  
at all if 'shaken' when hanging from the thread, or use magnetic  
bobbins.
