Cleaning the bobbin case
Thread wax and dust easily collect around the hole
in the tension-adjusting spring on the bobbin case,
resulting in an incorrect thread tension. Therefore,
it should be cleaned each time when the bobbin is
changed.
Use a piece of paper with the thickness of a
business card.

Open the hook cover, remove the bobbin
case, and then remove the bobbin. (Refer to
