What causes incorrect thread trimming (upper or lower thread not being trimmed) on my Brother S-7220B?
Incorrect thread trimming, where the upper or lower thread is not being trimmed on your Brother Sewing Machine, can occur if the needle is not properly installed; if it is incorrect, install the needle correctly. Also, the fixed knife or movable knife might be blunt; in this case, replace the fixed knife or the movable knife.
Why are the upper and lower threads breaking on my Brother S-7220B?
Thread breakage on your Brother Sewing Machine can stem from several issues. A bent or broken needle should be replaced. Ensure the needle is correctly installed and the machine is properly threaded. Insufficient lubrication of the rotary hook requires adding oil until the oil gauge reaches the appropriate level. Adjust the upper or lower thread tension if it's too weak or too strong. If the thread take-up spring operating range is too small, adjust its position. Damaged parts like the rotary hook or feed dog should be smoothed or replaced. Lastly, a damaged thread path should be smoothed or the damaged part replaced.
What to do if my Brother S-7220B Sewing Machine needles keep breaking?
If the needles on your Brother Sewing Machine are breaking, consider these factors: Avoid pushing or pulling the material with excessive force during sewing. Ensure the needle is correctly installed. Replace the needle if it is bent, the tip is broken, or the needle hole is blocked. Also, verify that the needle and rotary hook timing are correct by adjusting the height of the needle bar and the clearance between the needle and the tip of the rotary hook. Finally, ensure that the needle and feed mechanism timing is correct by adjusting to the standard timing.
What to do if my Brother S-7220B doesn't operate when the power is on and the treadle is pressed?
If your Brother Sewing Machine does not operate when the power is turned on and the treadle is pressed, check if the power supply connector is disconnected from the control box. If it is, insert the connector securely.
What should I do if the oil gauge is not visible in the oil gauge window of my Brother S-7220B Sewing Machine?

Why is there puckering (excess tension) when I sew with my Brother S-7220B Sewing Machine?
Puckering, or excess tension, during sewing with your Brother Sewing Machine can be due to several factors. Make the upper and lower thread tension as weak as possible. Replace the needle if it is blunt, and use as thin a needle as possible. Reduce the thread take-up spring tensions and lower the position of the thread take-up spring to as low a position as possible. Adjust the presser foot pressure. Reduce the sewing speed using the sewing speed control keys. Finally, tilt the front of the feed dog down slightly to ensure the angle of the feed dog is correct.
What does it mean when “GrEASEUP” or “GU” flashes on my Brother S-7220B Sewing Machine display?

How to fix skipped stitches at the start of sewing with my Brother Sewing Machine?
To resolve skipped stitches at the start of sewing with your Brother Sewing Machine, consider the following: Reduce the tension of the thread take-up spring if it's too strong. Lower the position of the thread take-up spring if its operating range is too large. Adjust the pretension if the trailing lengths of the upper threads are too short after thread trimming. Sharpen the fixed knives, or replace them if the threads aren't being trimmed cleanly. Try using a needle with a count that is one lower if the needle is too wide. If the length of thread trailing out from the bobbin case after thread trimming is too short, replace the anti-spin spring in the bobbin case if the bobbin is spinning loosely. Use the slow start feature if the sewing speed is too fast at the sewing start. Adjust the ne...
Why are there loops in the seam of my Brother S-7220B?
Loops appearing in the seam of your Brother Sewing Machine may be due to a thread path that is not smooth enough; use a file with a fine grain or sandpaper to polish smooth the thread path.
