Speed 350 and manual acti-feed at 35. This is not allowing the thread to be held tightly enough against that "silver tube" , the thread break sensor. The sensor works because of a static electric charge being generated from the thread rotating back and forth across the surface of it. If the thread becomes "loose", and the contact of thread to tube becomes broken, a false thread or bobbin break will occur. Bobbin tension too loose, can also cause this problem.....
