Hi LJ,
Look on the bobbin case, and see if there is a small screw. Usually that is the tension of the bobbin. You can adjust that until there is only slight tension on the bobbin thread.
Hope this helps

Juki DDL 8500: Bobbin thread is not coming up to the top side and the top thread is looping on the underside. Bobbin thread slides right out, and I've had no luck adjusting the top thread tension.

What thread are you using and what are you sewing? I'm assuming the machine is stitching correctly and it is just a tension issue. I would test each thread seperatly by hand and see if one thread is too tight or too loose. Thread on the bottom usually mean the top thread is too loose however it could by the bobbin is too tight. It could also indicate a slight timing issue or a burr on the hook. Is the thread shredding or getting damaged?

I just bought a used juki DDL 8500 industrial sewing machine. It didn't come with manual. I also can't find a bobbin casing. I feel very foolish. There appears to have a bobbin winder on the side....

I just bought the same machine and mine came with a photocopied manual. There is indeed a bobbin winder on the side, there's a flat section on the side of the bobbin winder closest to you, if you push that forward it connects a wheel attached to a bobbin spoke, to the belt that runs between the machine and the motor. To wind the bobbin, put the bobbin on sideways onto the axis of the wheel that is on the inside of the machine, and push the bobbin winder forward.
If you're looking for where the bobbin case is located on the machine, if you look underneath the machine on the left hand side, there should be a metal belly, on the left side of the belly is an opening, and in there sits the bobbin casing.
I think you were asking for either one of these answers, I'm on here troubleshooting for my Juki DDL-8500, good luck with yours, hopefully I can find what I need to know too!

The DDL 8500. is a high quality, single needle, straight stitch, industrial machine. If it is still in a good condition and the present owner is prepared to guarantee it for at least 3 months, it is a good buy. Retail for app. $790.00 new.
