Troubleshooting

Thread breaking during sewing

Check for a sharp edge on the needle plate or bobbin case. Ensure the needle is sharp and correctly inserted. Adjust machine tension if too tight. Use an appropriate needle size for the fabric and thread.

Skipped stitches

Ensure the needle is new and the correct type/size for the fabric. Re-thread the machine and bobbin, ensuring the thread is seated correctly in the tension discs. Check for lint buildup in the bobbin area.

Excessive lint

Although this thread is designed to produce minimal lint, ensure your machine is clean. Check for any fraying on the thread path or tension discs. Use a high-quality sewing machine needle.
