Be sure presser foot (embroidery foot) is fully lowered or tension discs will not fully mate. There should be notable difference in tension with foot up verses foot down as you pull on top thread?
Machines vary on how the bobbin is installed. A lot of Singers have a drop-in bobbin, but others actually have a removable bobbin case. Just search until you find one that is similar to yours.
but you may need to check the machine info panel near the power inlet and see if there is a model number, "Serenade" doesn't bring up anything and neither does 30.
You may need to increase the foot pressure to cope with the heavy denim material. Look carefully at the material as the machine tries to stitch ... if the foot is not keeping the material firmly on the stitch plate, it might be riding up on the needle (denim tends to be rather 'grippy') which will prevent the thread loop being formed correctly below the stitch-plate and therefore not getting picked-up by the CB hook. Changing to a bigger diameter needle might actually make the situation worse in this case ... go back to an 80 and try again.
the reason it may skip stitches on leather is because it cannot form a loop for the hook to pick up because of the closeness of the material, you must use a proper leather needle
put the tension to about 4 and make sure it is threaded in a N shape and remember the thread catcher above the needle from the bobbin to left down round tension up to arm down the side.
Your top tensioner is too loose.make sure the thread runs through all the relevant eyes and then tighten the top tension little by little as you do a sample few stitches.
