Global was probably the seller / distributor of this machine but not the manufacturer. They also sell used machines. I would assume a Minerva 72401, 72405 or something in between.

EDIT:

kinda like this one (scroll down):

I am back again!

In the picture, there is an Allen key on the machine. By turning this key you change the stitch length. Now as you use the machine, this knob is slowly turning to max size. Is there a way to tighten somehow the knob movement? The manual  CowboyBob suggests have a different mechanism for stitch control

I'd first tighten the 3 screws on the round plate. If that makes no difference, or they're already tight, remove them and see if there is another screw under the cover to lock down the adjuster screw.

The 3 screws are already tightened.

I would tilt back the machine and check what the allen key is doing...

 

EDIT:

You can download parts lists here. Maybe they help you to figure the function.

see above post, I just edited it.

Maybe the parts lists help to figure the function. Or maybe the REXEL Co. can provide a manual. I´d check with them.

This is from a list I downloaded

I found something:

You have to loosen Screw D before you adjust the stitch length and tighten again when done.

Thanks!!! I think we never loosed the middle screw to change the stitch so i guess the screw is worn out and requires a new one!
