Likely uneven feed (top thread snagging on spool). This machine has a horizontal spool so be sure the the spool cap is larger than the spool and double check with the manual on which way the thread is supposed to come off the spool... I believe it should fall forward, so if not then flip the spool.
Could also be top tension is extremely high.
Or possibly the bobbin thread has no tension... be sure to hold the bobbin spool with right index finger while you guide bobbin thread into slit. You should feel the bobbin thread slide underneath the bobbin case tension spring. See machine instructions.
