      Several factors can cause threads to break. Make sure the machine is threaded correctly, and check the spool pin and thread holders for any tangles. Adjust the thread tension if it's too tight, and ensure needles are installed correctly. Using the correct needle, such as Schmetz 130/705H, is also important.

      Skipped stitches can occur for several reasons. Ensure that the needle isn't bent or blunt, and if it is, replace it. Install the needle correctly and use the recommended Schmetz 130/705H needle. Also, make sure the machine is threaded correctly and that the presser foot pressure isn't too loose; if it is, turn the pressure adjustment screw clockwise to increase it.
