Exclamation Need Help With SWF Machine

Help! I have a 3 year old SWF 15 needle machine. When I embroider a design or just a name, the bobbin thread is being pulled to the top of the design. The top or colored thread is being pulled down so you can not see it. I hope someone is able to understand what I am describing and can help me to fix it. UGH! Thank you!

But I do not know how to fix it. Do you know what I need to change on my machine by any chance?

Slide a business card under the flap on your bobbin case to remove debris. Debris will make the bobbin thread come to the top.

Pollchaps is correct. You need to adjust your tension. Try this SWF Tension
