I dealt with this same problem and found out my machine seems to only do well with Signature brand machine quilting thread. I do like my machine though I wish I had a deeper throat. But for the price it is a good machine.

I really appreciate all the hints... I just got my machine and table, purchased (my friend pretty much blessed me with this set up... I am so grateful)... I go about five inches and the thread breaks...very frustrating and horrible issue to rethread on the frame as I have a very small room... so.. just wanted to take breath... and say thank you... now going to go back and check the bobbin... Do you all put the feeddog plate on the machine when on the frame? I didn't see where to lower the feed dogs... Also... oil... specific kind? I have a Viking Rose and oil is not necessary.. so this is new to me... Thank you in advance...

I'm sorry you are having problems. Here's a yahoo group that may help. I justed posted this info for someone having problems with their Viking Megaquilter: PfaffHobbyGrandQuilter. It's not as busy as the yahoo homequiltingsystem group but there might be some good info there, too. It's described as " for those who either own or are interested in the 9" Pfaff Hobby Grand Quilter, 9" Viking Mega Quilter, Janome 1600P, Pfaff Grand Quilter 18.8, Viking Mega Quilter 18x8, Inspira frame(original), Next Generation frame, Imperial frame by Inspira and QBot(frame mounted computer robot)."
