If your Alfa 606 is snapping the thread and not doing even stitching, there are a few things you can try to fix the issue:
Check the thread: Make sure you are using the correct type and weight of thread for your fabric. Check that the thread is not old or brittle, and that it is properly threaded through the machine.
Adjust the tension: Double-check that your tension is set correctly. If the tension is too tight, it can cause the thread to snap. If the tension is too loose, it can cause uneven stitching.
Check the needle: A dull or bent needle can cause the thread to break. Make sure you are using the correct size and type of needle for your fabric.
Clean the machine: Lint and debris can build up in the machine and cause issues. Clean your machine thoroughly, including the bobbin case and feed dogs.
Try a different stitch length: If the longer stitch length is causing issues, try switching back to a shorter stitch length to see if that solves the problem.
If none of these solutions work, it may be time to take your machine in for servicing or to consult with a sewing machine technician.
