Sewing-Machine Troubleshooting Tips
While it’s a good idea to take your machine to a dealer regularly for a tune-up, here are a few fixes for common problems.
Bad stitch quality. Before making any other adjustment, lift the machine’s presser foot and rethread the machine.

Thread breaking. If you’re using old thread, try a new spool; old thread can become brittle and lose elasticity.
