    Default Singer 201 bobbin winder problem

    I have a 201-2 and when I wind a bobbin it starts rather slow and picks up speed as the bobbin fills and when it is full it speed up and when it trips the motor races. When I take off the bobbin the bobbin holder rod is very hot as well as is the motor on the back of the machine. What do I need to do to fix this problem?

    We found the problem. My husband loosened the top screw that holds the bobbin winder on and now it works just fine.
