that happened to me just now. i'm done working rehabbing my singer 28 hand crank and tried sewing but for some reason the top thread is not catching up the bobbin thread. i check the tension assembly and sewed so many times and my top thread breaks all the time. check the VS bobbin tension and cleaned it. tried it again and thread breaks. finally i checked the needle orientation - and it's on the wrong side. now it's working but i still need to work on the tension as the stitches not good.
