If it's an older mechanical machine (not computerized), it very likely needs a thorough cleaning and oiling.
Wheel on right side that controls the needle up and down is very tight...
SOURCE: Sewing machine struggling to run or sewing slowly with no load
sounds like it needs oiled.
Clean thoroughly in the hook and bobbin case area and oil 1-2 drop is all.
Oiling instructions:
You never need a diagram to oil a sewing machine. Turn the hand wheel and look for every area that metal touches metal. 1-2 drops (more Is Not better) of oil everywhere metal rubs metal, use a flashlight and look and oil look and oil until every spot is oiled.
