I don't think you oil a sewing machine motor.

Clean out the area under the presser foot. Sometimes built-up lint can cause the motor to strain as stitching extra heavy fabric.

If the problem continues, the machine needs to be serviced by a pro.

How do you oil it

Check your manual, some machines no longer need oil and you will do harm by using oil.

Hello, I have a Shark euro-pro sewing machine. I am sewing denim on denim using singer needles that were suggested for denim. The numbers on the package are 2020 110/18 808 R 130/705H 05 un I...

The size of needle is fine for sewing on denim so unless the needle is bent (and even so) I doubt that is the problem. Breaking upper thread typically has more to do with the threading, ie wrapped around some place along the way or misthreaded somehow, of even if you somehow got knots or that it has somehow got thread around the spindle for the spool. So first recheck the threading. Best to do by simply totally unthreading it, looking closely at the spool and winding and then rethreading it again. Make sure your upper tension hasn't been accidentally tightened too.

Next check the bobbin and bobbin thread. First pull on the thread. Is it pulling real tightly or does it flow out readily? Take the bobbin out and look at it. Check the tension also. Is it too tight? That too can cause the upper thread to break.

Is the needle penitrating the material smoothly? Again examine the needle closely to see if it's developed a burr. Better yet just swap the needle with a new needle and try it.

The majority of the time it is one of these things that will cause the top thread to break.

I have a Euro- Pro Model 9106 Deluxe Denim and Silk. I have problems with it jamming often and now it is running very rough and not stiching well. I think it needs to be oiled. Do I just remove the bobbin...

My advice would be to NOT use just any oil but only a highly refined clear oil specific to sewing machines and labeled as such. 3 in One oil is good for some other machines but not recommended for electronic machines. I'm also experiencing rough running w/ my model 9106 after sewing heavy denim material. It now jerks from zig zag stitch to straight stitch and will run w/o the foot pedal being pressed. I'll keep looking for answers.
