• It is the standard that the center of the bobbin is as high as the center of thread tension disk .
• Adjust the position of thread tension disk to the direction of E when the winding amount of the bobbin
thread on the lower part of the bobbin is excessive and to the direction F when the winding amount of
the bobbin thread on the upper part of the bobbin is excessive.
After the adjustment, tighten screw .
7) To adjust the tension of the bobbin winder, turn the thread tension nut .
1. When winding the bobbin thread, start the winding in the state that the thread between the
bobbin and thread tension disk is tense.
2. When winding the bobbin thread in the state that sewing is not performed, remove the
needle thread from the thread path of thread take-up and remove the bobbin from the hook.
3. There is the possibility that the thread pulled out from the thread stand is loosened due to
the inuence (direction) of the wind and may be entangled in the handwheel. Be careful of
the direction of the wind.

* Standard state of the thread take-up spring
The engraved marker line on the machine arm is almost aligned with the top of thread take-up spring. (It is
necessary to adjust in accordance with materials and processes.)
To check how the thread take-up spring works, draw out the needle thread in direction F after
having adjusted the thread take-up spring pressure to check whether the thread take-up spring exerts force to the thread up to the last moment (state G) just before the thread comes out from E. If the spring fails to exert force to the spring until the last moment (state H), decrease
the thread take-up spring pressure. In addition, the stroke of the thread take-up spring is
excessively small, the spring does not work properly. For the general fabrics, a stroke of 10 to
13 mm is proper.
(3) Adjusting the thread take-up stroke
1) When sewing heavy-weight materials, move thread guide to the left (in direction C) to increase the
length of thread pulled out by the thread take-up.
2) When sewing light-weight materials, move thread guide to the right (in direction D) to decrease the
length of thread pulled out by the thread take-up.
* Standard state of the thread guide
• DDL-9000C-SMS : Marker line on the thread guide aligns with the center of the setscrew.
• DDL-9000C-SSH : Marker line on the thread guide aligns with the center of the marker line on the ma-
chine arm.
