  If the upper thread of your VERITAS Sewing Machine breaks, consider these potential causes: * The machine might not be threaded correctly, so rethread it. * The thread tension could be too tight; reduce it. * The thread may 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 could be wound around the spool holder pin; remove the spool holder and unwind the thread. * The needle may be damaged; replace it.
