swf 6 head embroidery machine thread keeps breaking

If the thread gets too much slack in it, it can simply jump off the wheel and just needs re-wrapped.

If you're getting false breaks, make sure the thread is wrapped around the wheel. If the wheel is not spinning, it assumes the thread has broken. The machine monitors whether this wheel is spinning while sewing. The top thread has to wrap around this wheel, and when the machine sews, it spins the wheel. If the problem persists, or is occurring on more than one needle, you may have a different problem and need to contact technical service. You can also try loosening the check spring slightly. Clean the spring and the post to be sure it can make good electrical contact. If the machine consistently is not recognizing thread breaks on a particular needle, look at the check spring area.

If the check spring is sitting against its post, then the machine assumes the thread is broken. If you're unsure of what type of thread break detection your machine has, please contact technical service.

Newer Barudan machines use a Rotary Thread Break Wheel for each needle.Īnd some Barudan machines use a combination of both. Older Barudan machines use the Check Spring.

There are 2 types of thread break detectors used on Barudan machines.
