  If the thread is breaking on your Melco Sewing Machine, here are some potential solutions: * Replace the needle with a compatible one or a new one. * Ensure the needle is correctly installed. * Use a high-quality thread, or spray silicone on the thread cone. Consider using a Z-twist (left twist) thread. * Make sure you've threaded the machine correctly. Additionally, check the design for short or dense stitches and edit the design to remove them. Loosen the upper/bobbin tension, and tighten the fabric in the hoop, or increase the number of backing pieces. Another reason may be in the rotary hook: clean, oil, or replace it. Also, consider replacing the bobbin, repairing or replacing it, or removing scratches from the thread path with emery cloth.

What causes problems with the wide-angle cap frame on a Melco EMT 10/4T?

  For issues with the wide-angle cap frame on your Melco Sewing Machine, consider the following: * Ensure the cap is hooped properly. * Modify the design. * Check that the tensioner is not installed too tightly. * Check the driver bar cable tension and spindle adjustment. * Ensure the driver was properly adjusted on the peripheral. If the cap frame is loose on the driver, adjust the spindles.
