I assume you haven´t yet looked into the manual, right?

Hello all, having trouble with my LU2-410 machine breaking the thread. Couldn't get much help from the manual. I have finished the back seat of my car, but now working on the front seat can't seem to go even 1 inch without it breaking. Have tried a different spool of thread, adjusting tension all over the board with no help. Can anyone offer any help please. Thanks, Bob

Threading industrial sewing machines is basically the same. If your manual is bad look for a manual for similar machines with a similar thread tension unit. It´s not crazy different - really. Once you understood the threading you basically can thread all machines.

The problem also could be the needle hook timing.

Thanks Constabulary, I will look into a better manual if I can find one. Don't know anything about needle hook timing. I'll have to see if I can find out something about that. I appreciate the response. Bob

Here are a couple of excellent videos on timing in general:

The mitsubishi manual I see at https://www.manualslib.com/download/2159136/Mitsubishi-Lu2-410.html does show a threading diagram, but the image quality is poor. Here is a screenshot of the Juki LU-1560N threading diagram that may be more useful:

friquant. Like a frequent, piquant flyer.
