I tried to unjam the stitch regulator and with force  managed to wreck the plunger...undid the screws ...now it is still jammed  because I think I

did not put it together the way it was......it is a bit like trying to put a combination back together. I tried to find a service manual...no luck and I 

probably will never find the broken  part that is  likely the problem.

My advice is if nothing works in a jam dont ever use force as a last resort.

Jammed stitch regulator...

tried the following:

forced the wheel backwards hard....broke the plunger

fixed the plunger......heated the stitch regulator 3 times to loosen

did not loosen...

tried liquid wrench to loosen....several times .....nothing

checked the horizontal shafts that control the dog ...ok...all good

timed the machine....all good makes a long stitch....( stuck there) in

long stitch mode......sews well.

I think I will need to take the stitch regulator apart to find jam....

I have not been able to find a diagram showing the detail of the 

stitch regulator parts. I know it must be like a car cam shaft...but 

how does it work in this machine.....?

I suspect that it might be debris  blocking a cam.

Any suggestions ?

Tried everything.....I guess that a perhaps a small metal debris is blocking

the movement of one of the cams.....puzzled but machine is stuck in long

stitch and works well for leather crafting.

Some day  I may solve the problem by taking the stitch regulator apart but

for now it will be happy for long stitch.

Thanks for taking  the time to send me suggestions.

Does anyone know if the stitching regulator contains bearings?  

i.e. needle bearings.....none of my manuals describe the internal parts

of the stitching regulator.....would be good to know before resorting to a 

tear down.

Are you pushing the plunger all the way down?

Perhaps the repaired plunger is short....you may have the solution...

I am waiting for a new plunger then I will know.

thanks for the tip

Yes....I can push the plunger all the way down with the new plunger.

I am in long stitch now, but I got there by removing the two screws on the gear nearest the hand wheel, 

lifting the little spring off of the ratchet and turning the ratchet by hand to get the long stitch. I originally

was   in point zero when the stitch regulator jam occurred.
