Mend Singer 196k205 Needle Lower Thread

196k205 bobbin trouble?

My bobbin holder has come out of alignment, resulting in either the needle hitting the case; lower thread not being picked up or entanglement when both threads meet. Help very much needed.. Not sure I have the bobbin holder adjusted correctly. When it first happened the machine felt like it was being restricted. |I| found that the bobbin holder had slipped. Now I have adjusted it it wont seem to catch the thread properly.
