re-thread the machine.
Make sure the thread is
correctly positioned in the
needle bar thread guide.
Make sure thread passes
completely under upper and
middle thread guide.
Remove any knots or tangles.

evenly wound. If the bobbin is
not correctly wound, replace
the bobbin with one that is
correctly wound or rewind the
bobbin.
Use the correct bobbin.
