Although not quite a leather sewing machine, does anybody know how to regulate/change the stitch length on 5100 series Union Specials?

I'd look under the left side of the bed, right about in the middle of the machine. I think there's a stitch regulator adjustment under there. 

Just a vague memory from a machine I remember looking at some time in the last few years. 

One of the big dogs will no doubt know right off the top of their head.

From this user/parts manual on page 17 I see part labeled #9 that has numbers on it like a stitch regulator dial.

friquant. Like a frequent, piquant flyer.
