 CAUTION

• When adjusting the alternate bobbin case, be 

sure to remove the bobbin from the alternate 
bobbin case.

• DO NOT adjust the position of the phillips (+) 

screw on the alternate bobbin case as this may 
result in damage to the bobbin case, rendering 
it unusable.

• If the slotted screw (-) is difficult to turn, do 

not use force. Turning the screw too much or 
providing force in either (rotational) direction 
may cause damage to the bobbin case. Should 
damage occur, the bobbin case may not 
maintain proper tension.
