Replacing The Embroidery Foot - Brother 888-P20 Operation Manual

■ Correct thread tension
Upper thread slightly appears on the wrong side (bottom)
of fabric.
■ Bobbin thread is too loose
Bobbin thread appears slightly on the right side (top) of
fabric.
If this occurs, turn the slotted-head screw (-) clockwise,
being careful not to over-tighten the screw, approximately
30-45 degrees to increase bobbin tension.
■ Bobbin thread is too tight
Upper thread on the right side (top) of fabric seems to be
lifting/looping and bobbin thread is not seen on the wrong
side (bottom) of fabric.
If this occurs, turn the slotted-head screw (-)
counterclockwise, being careful not to over-loosen the
screw, approximately 30-45 degrees to decrease bobbin
tension.
IMPORTANT
• When adjusting the bobbin case, be sure to
remove the bobbin from the bobbin case.
• DO NOT adjust the position of the phillips (+)
screw on the bobbin case as this may result in
damage to the bobbin case, rendering it
unusable.
• If the slotted-head 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.
