Clean the bobbin case. Change the needle and turn the needle slightly more to 
the right of center.

I had a tech show me this trick and it works great.

The specs say no more than 5% turn.  This is only true when the machine is 
properly adjusted.  I have turned as much as 15% to stop shredding.  The 
shredding may be coming from the hook hitting the thread dead center.  Turning 
the needle can stop this most of the time.  Turn it a little bit several times 
or until the shredding stops.

Good Luck
