Any suggestions on why machine skip stitches

Gabriel

hi
i have a chenille embroidery machine that is skipping stitches when is in chain stitch mode, in loop stitch mode most of the times is ok, once in a while does it.
any suggestions?

I would say that the hook is out of time or the hook is too far from the needle. You might also look at the thread to see if it wound too tight on the spool. I've run into that before.

I'd say needle/hook clearance or possible timing as the culprit.
