Hi guys. I am new here. I am looking for a solution. I have adler 069. When I use two different colours of threads, the bottom thread is seen on the top stitch. After I searched on the internet, I noticed that the problem causes because of the balance of feeding system. So is there anyone who can help me to adjust the presser foot and upper foot ?
Thank you

Would that be a thread tension issue? loosen the top tension or tighten the bottom

Tom is giving you good advice. The bottom tension needs to be tightened up.

Yes it does look like the top thread may be to tight , I would double check the way the machine is threaded first then if you can't get it loose enough on the top tension start tightening the bottom thread tension

I agree it is clearly visable that the thread tension is off.

Yeah 100% thats a thread tension issue. Presser feet adjustment wouldn't effect this.

This videos shows you how to adjust thread tension.
