  The upper thread may break on your Silver Sewing Machine due to several reasons: * The machine might not be threaded correctly, so rethread it. * The thread tension may be too tight; reduce it. * The thread could be too thick for the needle; select a larger needle. * The needle might not be inserted correctly; remove and reinsert it with the flat side towards the back. * The thread may be wound around the spool holder pin; remove the reel and wind the thread onto it. * The needle could be damaged; replace it.
