I think the only hint or tip I got when I got the machine was "machine fast, hands slow" keep machine going as fast as you can and move fabric slow. SO far I have not broken any, but then again I have only used it a few times to try it.

Best defense against broken needles is to keep those needles moving very quickly as you work. Give it a try. Needles break when we move our project while a needle is still embedded in the work. When you step on the pedal, the needles move so quickly that it isn't a problem.
I too am a new needle feller, I joined in the hope that I would learn lots of hints and tips,
I have played quite a bit with my machine but have broken quite a lot of needles. Hopefully I will ease up on the the needle breaking and start enjoying the machine( I have got a little nervous of it).
I love looking at crafts on the Internet so many new ideas .
