Sounds like your machine is out of time. Take it in for clean, adjust and timing.

It needs serviced.

Take it to the near sewing machine mechanic.

Here are two places you can get one. www.sewingmanuals.com and www.mastersewusa.com I have looked at both and you can download or have one mailed to you. take care and good luck, Andy

the presser foot only holds the fabric against the feed dogs in the needle plate area

check the feed dogs to see if there in the up position

if not there should be a nob in the feed dog area to move them up & down

on some models when you remove the extension table the nob is at the back

readjust the hook to just grab the thread loop as the needle raises it will take a few tries to get the exact setting for the hook (maybe you will see a mark on the hook shaft to show you where the hook's set screw was located before it slipped)

I've had this to happen if I have the bobbin in backwards.
