This will allow the length regulator (D) to pivot

down (Figure
can be accessed through the link pin hole (F).
Loosen screw (G) to adjust the cam (E) with a
small, standard screwdriver (H)
Note: Hold the reverse lever down for better
access to cam (E)
Turn the slotted cam clockwise to shorten the
forward stitch length and lengthen the reverse
stitch length. Turn the cam counterclockwise to
lengthen the forward stitch length and shorten
the reverse stitch length.
Reassemble the pivot by replacing the link pin
(C) through the length regulator (D) and link (F)
as it was before making the adjustment. The
flat on the link pin shaft should face screw (A).
Retighten all screws.
Note: Do not rotate the balance wheel while
disassembled as it will disrupt the timing of the
machine.
