I see that a couple other reviewers are having trouble with the thread breaking. I am too. Any advice?

I have not had any issues with this so far. I slow my machine down some and that seems to be the trick. Hope that helps!

Sounds like your spool of thread is on backwards or is not threaded properly.

Yes. I really love this machine. Self-threader no longer works, but everything else is working fine.

Did you email the seller? Because this question is going to people who purchased the thread, not to the seller. We can't answer about the return policy, only the seller can do that.

First, contact the manufacturer, and also check the exchange policy. If that fails try WD-40, back-threading and gently re-threading. CJE

Thanks for your post - I just tried it now and it works! I had always thought it would break if I force it up because it seemed to be really stuck. But since you described how to do it I was more confident, and it now works! thanks again

Reinsert your bobbin and make sure you have it caught in the slot on bobbin case.After that hand turn your machine over.Rotate the wheel forward to go down into the bobbin case area.Thread should rotate around and be caught up by the sewing machine hook.Than the bobbin thread should come to the top.If this doesn't happen your timing on your machine might have been push off. Did you try to sew a really heavy fabric or thickness.This can move the timing out of placement.It will require having it checked by a sewing machine repairman.But first recheck that both top and bottom thread are threaded correctly.Also check your needle to see if it is bent or worn.Replacement is the easiest test. Also check to see if there is a lot of lint build up in the bobbin area.It can be cleaned out with canned air. How long have you had your machine and how much have you used it? Without seeing the machine I'm guessing at possible causes of problems with the machine.Did you have any problem with the tension before this problem came up?

I believe they have lock tite on the threads. Warm it up with a heat gun or hair dryer and see if that does it.

I am a new serger user, so all I can do is guess based on problems that I solved on other sewing machines. Check you needles and make sure they are not bent or rubbing. Clean all lint and dust. Rethread using manual as guide. I usually find my problem when I do those three things. Please let us know how the problem is solved when it is. :) Good luck!

Yea. It actually didn't last past two washings. It immediately began to show threads after the first wash. I'd keep looking.

yes,good luck on your project. check your thread, should be good to go. update you may want to use plumbers tape on your threads, and do not over tighten; you will do a good job, just take your time, and check for leaks until they are okay!

My auto-feed wont work either, I tried several times to get it to advance the line, I'm guessing its just broken. I have to stop what I am doing and press the button near the spool every few feet. I'm going to give it a better look tonight but I think I made a mistake with this purchase.

On my unit the 3 screws that hold the blade will not release. I have tried both directions...thinking they may be reverse thread...still no movement.Tried some penetrant...no luck.Any thoughts

Mr. Fix says check with the manufactor for parts. If your handy try retrofitting the parts from a hardware store. How'd that break anyway? Good luck.

Nope, I tried that first and it didn't thread on. So, I bought the ATI one.

I had a problem with the threaded holding pin breaking after a while, normally these are case hardened pins and the first one I've ever had break. I replaced it myself and have had no problems since, maybe just a bad pin or metal?
