Machine Skips A Stictch

[FHL FERG]

Hello all,

I have a "new to me" cobra class 4. It is amazing to work with! I have been adjusting things and trying to get it all dialed in. I have noticed it occasionally skips a stitch. Since I am new to machine sewing I'm not sure whats wrong. Is it me trying to move too fast? Does the machine need a timing adjustment? or maybe the thread needs a tension adjustment?

Was it sewing fine before you started adjusting ? I would check and make sure it's threaded right and that the bobbin is in right. Then put a new needle in and see what happens.

It was disassembled to be moved. I reassembled and started sewing. When I said "adjusting" things it should have been assembling and threading. It is threaded correctly according to steve's video that came with it and the bobbin is correct. I was thinking it may be the needle or a thread tension adjustment.
