I don't know if that's causing the issue but I'm willing to try.
for those chips that may be fraying the thread......go to local hardware store and ask for a sheet of crocus cloth-it is a sandpaper but more flexible.....you can tear or cut a skinny strip and rub that onto where the rough part is and see if that removes it. I know it works on metal, so probably will work on plastic.....I have a longarm and have used that on knicks or rough spots.........
