Introduction
Use this guide to replace a cracked or defective bobbin on your Brother CE8080 portable sewing machine. A bobbin in a sewing machine is a small and cylindrical shape metal or plastic component that holds the thread coming from the base of the machine. A sewing machine has thread coming from the top and base to create a stitch. A damaged bobbin will cause major malfunction to the sewing machine.
Your bobbin may need to be replaced if it has a crack or is damaged in some way because it affects the performance of the machine. It will also cause a loose lower stitch.
In Step 6 of this guide, you will need to use a pair fabric scissors. Fabric scissors tend to be sharper than normal ones and are uniquely designed for sewing. Additionally, make sure to unplug your portable sewing machine before following this guide.
What you need
-
-
Make sure that the presser foot (the part that holds fabric in place) is in the raised position before removing the bobbin cover.
-
Lift the bobbin cover case found beneath the needle.

I found your guide straightforward to read and understand, and it is typically adequate. In my opinion, the presence of clear images and the marker you used in the first picture will help and enable readers to repair their sewing machine easily. Well done!
Excellent illustration!!!
