Needle thread tension is
too high.
Needle comes in contact
with the blade point of
hook.
Clearance of inner hook
guide is too large.
Amount of oil in the hook
is insufficient.
Needle thread tension is
too low.
Thread take-up spring
works excessively or the
stroke of the spring is too
small.

Corrective measures
Remove the sharp edges or burrs
on the blade point of hook using

Adjust the needle thread tension.
Refer to "(7) Needle-to-hook
timing"
Decrease the clearance. Refer to
"(6) Adjusting the inner hook
guide".
Adjust the amount of oil in the
hook. Refer to "(21) Lubrication".
Adjust the needle thread tension.
(This trouble occurs a lot when
using synthetic threads.
Decrease the tension of of the
t h r e a d t a k e - u p s p r i n g a n d
increase the stroke of the spring.
Refer to "(9) Feed cam timing".
Refer to "(7) Needle-to-hook
timing".
