Here is a thought for you: try calling Cobra Steve and the gang at Leather Machine Company. Couple of times I ran into a glitch with my Cobra Class 4 there was always someone happy to walk me through it to a happy solution.

I would loosen the front 2 screws of the race ring very slightly to see if this stops the thread from jamming.

Another thought.  Check the tension disc on the bobbin.

If you have it tightened down, you should feel pressure on teh thread just pulling it with your fingers, without even putting it in the machine.  If you don't, or if tightening it doesn't make the tension greater, then you may have "sprung" the tension spring (on the bobbin assembly).  Simple fix -- Bob (link below) able to cure that for me quickly.

IF what you do is something that ANYBODY can do, then don't be surprised when ANYBODY does.
