Why is my 8mm duo sound projector chewing up the film??

I recently purchased this projector from ebay and is supposed to be in working order so just wondering if there is anything that i am doing wrong? I thread the film like it says, and it comes through to the other spool and runs for about 5 or 10 seconds but then the film snaps which is so frustrating! Please help me

This might help try lowering the speed when starting for a few frames.

All the best

Would really appreciate any help you could give. The box and instruction manual says duo-300 8mm sound projector. Many thanks
