Refer to the Bernina 635 manual for adjusting tension.  This could be needle or bobbin tension. The thread tension should be automatic but if the needle thread is pulling the bobbin thread through material an adjustment is obviously needed.  Don't forget to consider both the type of thread and the fabric.
