Be sure you leave a 3-4" tail on the bobbin when you insert it. Hold the end of the top thread, turn the fly wheel toward you until the needle goes down into the bobbin, grabs the bobbin thread and pulls it up. Take both threads toward the back of the machine and pull out about 6". Hold both threads as you take the first stitch in your fabric.

My babylock 2150 bobin thread gets stuck easely

HOW-TO

TENSION ISSUES

When a bird's nest of threads appear either on top or underneath your fabric, the likely culprit is your upper thread tension. If loops appear on the underside of the fabric, the upper tension may be too loose. And if knots appear on the top, the upper tension may be too tight.

Why will my machine not pick up my bobbin thread?

Bobbin or needle threaded wrongly? Is this a new machine? You need to make the first stitch by hand perhaps. Lower the needle into the needle plate by turning the hand wheel and raise carefully. It should bring up the bobin thread on a loop. catch and pull to back of machine. Now you can sew. I hope.

The top thread is looping every 30 or 40 stitches on my Juki DDL 8700. I put in a fresh needle, cleaned thoroughly, fresh throat plate and re-threaded. Any ideas? Thank you!

hi there
please check bobin case spring maybe need t adjust or rplace.
please check if you are wind bobin by correct way not too much titght or not too much loose. thread insaid bobin must be littel soft.
the last reason maybe the tip of stoper for hook id damaged and need to rplace.
best regards

Why would I have big loops on the bottom side of my fabric and the bobin is a straight line

You most likely don't have the thread set betweeen the upper tension disc properly

It can't pick up the thread out to sew

Make sure that you have a tail on the bobin thread when in place and a tail on the needle thread, hold the needle thread and turn the wheel to bring up the bobin thread before trying to sew

How do I get the thread from the bottom up so it works

Make sure the machine is all threaded correctly. Then with no material in the machine rotate the hand wheel while holding the upper thread and as long as the machine is in working order and you left a 5-6 inch tail on the bobin thread it should pick it up and bring it to the top.

Thread tangled in the bobine

I had this same problem yesterday. I took apart the needle tension casing and now it doesn't get tangled or stop. The only thing is the bobbin is not sewing...it looks fine on the top, but the bottom is just loose loops.

How do I tighten the tension on the bobin thread I am quitiing with invisible thread on the top and dark blue on the bottom, the bobin thread shows. I don't want that

you can either increase the bottom tension or reduce the top tension .. you will notice a little screw on the bobin case ... that screw adjusts the force on a small flat spring which provides the bottom tension (the thread goes under the spring when properly threaded) .. .. tighten that screw a little to increase bottom tension .. you can pull thread thru the bobin case to get a feel for how much tension you have ... you dont have to turn the screw very far to make a significant difference .. try just 1/4 of a turn at a time .. remember where it was originally set so you can put it back when you are finished with your present project .. the greater the bottom tension the less bobin thread will show at the top ... if you get the tension too high then you might see some puckering as you sew ..

Problem with spool Thread, please suggest a solution!

This is a tension problem.
In addition to the top thread having a tension adjustment there is the facility to adjust the tension of the bottom(bobbin) thread.
Both these tensions need to be correct to get a balanced stitch and to stop the loose threads underneath the cloth.
It is almost impossible to explain how to adjust the bottom tension you need to be shown.
Somewhere in your manual it should explain how to do this.

My machine is locking and apparently tangling up inside of the bobin case

You also need to adjust the pressure foot on the top of the machine. This regulates how much pressure is put on the fabric and the feed. Sounds like it is wrong somehow-maybe you need more pressure. Check the pressure adjustment is screwed in properly if it is this type which unscrews.The pressure adjuster Im reffering to is generally a silver colour and looks a bit like a basic tyre pressure guage or pressure cooker valve-it just got a cuple of lines on it and sits on the top left of the machine above the needle bar. The other thing which could cause problems is the bobbin tension-make sure it is running thru smoothly but not too loose.
