It is recommended to use embroidery needles in the size range of 70 to 90 for optimal stitching and to prevent damage to the thread or fabric.
While designed for machine embroidery, its strength and properties might lend themselves to some hand embroidery techniques, though results may vary and it's primarily optimized for machine use.

Ensure you are using the recommended needle size (70-90). Check for any burrs on the needle or machine's thread path. Adjust tension settings if necessary.
Verify that the correct needle is installed and that it is not bent or dull. Ensure the thread is feeding smoothly from the spool and not snagging. Re-thread the machine.
Confirm that the correct side of the trilobal thread is facing outwards during embroidery. Ensure the machine's tension is properly balanced to allow the thread structure to reflect light effectively.
Use a suitable stabilizer for your fabric. Check that the thread is not overwound on the bobbin or spool, which can cause tension issues.
