Why is my Brother BM3700 fabric not feeding properly?
If the fabric does not feed through your Brother Sewing Machine, try lengthening the stitch length. Remove the darning plate if it is fitted on the needle plate. Ensure you are using the right combination of fabric, thread, and needle. Remove any tangled thread, cleaning the race if necessary. Attach the correct presser foot for the type of stitch you want to sew.
Why are stitches skipped on my Brother Sewing Machine?
If stitches are skipped on your Brother Sewing Machine, correct the upper threading and use the right combination of fabric, thread, and needle.

Why does the needle keep breaking on my Brother BM3700 Sewing Machine?
If the needle of your Brother Sewing Machine breaks, make sure it is correctly installed and that the needle clamp screw is firmly tightened with the oval screwdriver.

Loosen the upper thread tension, lightly guide the fabric and fit the spool properly. If the area around the needle plate or the bobbin case is scratched, contact your retailer or the nearest authorized service center to replace it. Make sure that you are using a bobbin that has been designed for this machine.
