Why is my Brother Sewing Machine thread breaking?

  Thread breakage in your Brother Sewing Machine can stem from several issues. Ensure the machine is threaded correctly and the thread tension isn't too high. Check for clogs in the rotary hook assembly and ensure there's thread in the bobbin. Inspect the needle for bends or flaws on the needle plate, rotary hook, or bobbin case that might cut the thread. Verify the needle is installed correctly and the presser foot is in contact with the material. Confirm the thread thickness and needle size are appropriate and that a thread with a left-hand twist is used. Also, check for adhesive on the needle, weak material tension, excessive play between the rotary hooks, smooth outer rotary hook rotation, proper rotary hook stopper clearance, and smooth thread flow from the bobbin case.

  If the needle of your Brother Sewing Machine is breaking, check if the needle is correctly attached (direction, height, etc.) and not bent. Also, verify the rotary hook attachment and timing settings. Look for backlash in the needle bar case and ensure the rotary hook stopper is correctly attached. Confirm that the needle size is correct, the tip is sharp, and the thread passes through the hole center of the presser foot.

  If your Brother Sewing Machine isn't embroidering properly, check if the material edge is caught in the machine and that embroidery hoop and related parts are operating correctly. Ensure the material is stretched properly, thread tension is correct, and the lower thread comes out smoothly.
