  1. Thanks for that! That's the detail I need to understand the mechanics and settings of how these things work.
  2. I've just purchased the Cowboy 6900, (4800?) the first electric machine ive ever used. Been quite the learning curve! Mainly teaching my left foot... Had an Outlaw for several years but found its limits with bag making and thinner leathers. I have made 3 or 4 bags quite successfully and am loving it so far. So much easier and more accurate with 2 hands holding the work Problem is I had a jam that tripped the clutch. Mistake learned! Reset it but now the stitch length is way too short for the dial numbers and it's not walking the material thru properly. Looks like the dog is sitting too high and maybe not timed right, seems to grab the material and pull it back to the front. It stitches okay so hook timing is good, but a 6 on the dial is only about 2 or 3mm on the leather now. Something has shifted. Watched and read everything I can, but not sure what, where and how to adjust to make it right. Help please?
