Singer 14U 34B 234B Operator Manual

Possibly a bent needle. Needles should be changed every 8 hours of use.

Probably due to incorrect threading or else one of the needles are bent. I had the same problem and it was the threading and the tension.frustrating as all get out.

HI,
check the link

10 Singer 14u Overlock Needles 2054 42 Size 70 10

Serger thread breaks

1. Is the serger threaded correctly?

2. Is the needles inserted correctly?

3. Is one of the needles bent or damaged?

4. Is the tension adjusted too tightly?

5. Is the tension adjusted to accommodate thickness of thread being used?

6. Are you using inferior quality thread?

7. Is the thread feeding off the cone/spool freely?

8. Is the needle size correct for the type of fabric being used?

9. Are the needles being used the correct one for the serger?

10. If all of the above suggestions don't help then the serger needs to be checked for a timing problem at a sewing machine repair shop.

Sergers thread upper looper first, lower looper second, right needle third and left needle last in that order. If your thread breaks, CUT ALL THREADS and start from scratch or you will not get a good stitch or your machine may jam. It's probably just a "user error."
Good luck.

I found a free pdf manual for my 20 year old White serger at singerco.com. Hopefully you can find yours too.
