Brother Sewing Machine
I have a brother sewing machine. Why does my bobbin thread wrap around the bobbin casing?
I am positive the thread is in the correct position. When I start to sew, the bobbin thread gets bunched up underneath the fabric and in the machine. When I open it up, the thread is wrapped around the bobbin casing several times. I always have to cut it to free it from the machine. Anyone have a clue what is causing this?
Ensure that the upper thread goes from the first thread guide to the tension assembly, then up to the take-up lever, and down to the needle. As your thread goes between the discs of the tension assembly and starts up to the take-up lever, ensure that it has engaged the check-spring. Another point that should be checked is that the flat-spot on the needle is to the right in the case of machines with the hook in a vertical plane, and to the back in the case of machines with a horizontal plane. The only exception to this rule (on current machines) is the Singer Featherweight model 221 or 222 which has the needle flat facing to the left. Also make sure that the needle is threaded from the left to the right.
If you have a top-drop-in bobbin, make sure the bobbin-case is fully inserted into the hook assembly.
I have been repairing sewing machines professionally for over 35 years, am semi-retired, and I enjoy very much helping people with sewing machine related problems at no charge. (Kind of giving back to the world what I have learned)
I can be contacted through the Answers protocol. Have a nice day.
