Make sure you follow the instructions 
carefully. If you do not cut the excess 
thread completely before winding the 
bobbin, when the thread runs low it may 
tangle around the bobbin and cause the 
needle to break.

Not winding the bobbin properly may 
cause the thread tension to loosen, and 
may break the needle.

Wound evenly
