glockanator Report post Posted November 8, 2016 I have had my Boss for about year now and I mostly stitch with white 277. Occasionally I need to change to a different color and have a specific bobbin Thathe I only wind half full of of whatever color I need to use. Well yesterday I filled it with black to do a holster and was 75% done with it and I could not get the bobbin to stay in the machine on the down stroke. This is the second or third time his has happened. Anyone else have this problem? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CowboyBob Report post Posted November 8, 2016 Check for lint or thread on the latch(what you push on to get the bobbin out) or the spring on the latch could be broken. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wizcrafts Report post Posted November 9, 2016 Black thread tends to be very twisty due to being double dipped. Try reversing the direction of the bobbin inside the case. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

glockanator Report post Posted November 12, 2016 For those that are interested I sent Tipp Mann an email and they called me later that day. They had me take the bobbin shuttle out of my machine and check the screw that holds the spring in. once that was tight Ben told me to bend the prong back out just a little and bingo bang that worked.
