The top tension is intended to be adjusted for different uses and on different fabrics. The default is usually the midway point between low & high number., however, that is just a default for standard uses. Sometimes, it is marked on the machine. dial The higher the number, the more the top tension pulls the bobbin thread up. The lower the number, the more the top thread will be pulled down by the bobbin thread.

It could be that there is a loose piece of thread, or some fluff which is obstructing the tension gauge. Try blowing around the theading area (or even run the hoover pipe near it to see if you can **** it out). I cleared mine by folding a piece of non fluffy material and rubbing gently between the tension dial and machine.
Good luck

The original software for these machines will most likely not run on a newer computer. So if you find the software you will face this dilemma. You can use one of the multi format card boxes from sewing companies if they do not have a deco 600 style ask for the Brother embroidery machine it is the same card.

You should use some klnd of stabilizer under your hoop. I use the paper kind which is thin or there is a heavier tear away stabilizer. I have used all cotton thread for embroidery or you can use rayon. There is a finer thread called bobbin thread for the bobbin but I gernerally use the same as on the top so it will be the same. Are you using an embroidery needle? .As for your thread getting wound around the bobbin the only thibng I can think of is tht it is threaded incorrectly. if it isn't the lack of a stabilizer. I hope this helps but I think it the the lack of stabilizer that is causingyour problems. The needle is going in and our of the same hole during embroidery and is getting stuck on your bobbin. Let me know if this helps! Suz

SOURCE: need a manual for bernina bernette deco 600
Yes, I need a manual for the Bernia Bernette Deco 600. Following the death of my daughter, My grand daughter said she did not want any of her mom's sewing equipment. I kept them for her and now she feels she would like to have the embroidery machine. However, we were unable to locate the manual for the deco 600. I am unable to locate one on line...only good reason...due to my inexperience at the computer I am unable to locate a manual for her. Any assistance you can give me will be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely Nana Helen
