OK I purchased the Singer 211 a1xxxk version for $650 with stand and new servo motor. Sews great but there is loose stitch on the top meaning I have to tighten thread coming out of bobbin. How do I do that for the top loading bigsize 1" bobbin. Are there any instructions on how to do it.

Could also mean that you have the top tension too high.

Machines wot I have - Singer 51W59; Singer 331K4; Seiko STH-8BLD; Pfaff 335; CB4500.

Chinese shoe patcher; Singer 201K (old hand crank)

It only works when the top tension is very high otherwise I get birds nest at the bottom. I am using thread size 138 both in top and bottom. It also varies what I am stitching, two layers vs 5 layers. Any advice how to easily increase bobbin tension... any articles.
