Hello,

Rod or Sharon has just posted in the Machines & Hardware forum of AmayaUsers 
Discussion Boards under the title of Thread Breaks( Not sure if this is proper 
term).

This thread is located at 
http://www.amayausers.com/discussion/showthread.php?5642-Thread-Breaks(-Not-sure-if-this-is-proper-term)

Here is the message that has just been posted:

Slimline clamping system....

These can be used to do the sides and/or backs of caps, but the 270 degree cap 
driver should be installed on the machine to do the front areas. There is a 
frame that goes on the cap driver called the "Pocket Clamp" and it can be use 
to do embroidery on various items as well as the front, sides, and back of some 
caps 

As to the thread breakage, the first question I would ask is---how high are you 
running your "presser foot"? I "cog wheel" that adjusts the presser foot up and 
down needs to be turned "counter clockwise" ALL the way to the left and then 
back up maybe one or two clicks. If the presser foot is too high, it will allow 
the material to jump up and down ( called flagging) and will result in thread 
breaks as you described.

What kind of backing are you using, hopefully it is a cut-a-way and not a 
tear-a-way?  But, what material are you trying to sew on?

Under "Tools, Settings, Threadfeed", what is the Auto lower limit set to? This 
should be set to 1 or 2 unless you are do caps of some specialty/custom 
embroidery work.
