How can I fix the bobin?

We have a Singer Touch and Sew Machine Model 626. When we try to sew the thread wraps around the outside of the bobin holder. We tried to adjust the tension and other things but cant fix it. The entire bobin case seems a little loose too. Any ideas?

Hello Alison,
The bobbin case should not move at all, there are two screws on the spring clip at the right hand side of the bobbin case, slacken the screws and move the clip towards the bobbin case so there is only enough gap between the bobbin case and the clip for thread to pass through, if the machine sews okay you will need to keep adjusting that clip, if the machine does not sew okay then you may need to retime the machine, I can attach timing instructions if you email me but you will have to get my email address from any answer from page 25 down because this site no longer allows emaiul addresses to be shown.
