Stitch length maxes out too early

[Gregg From Keystone Sewing]

Make sure that the crank clamp with the limit screws is set correctly to give both the possibility of a 4mm SPI in both forward and reverse.  It could be set so that the crank is going to give for example 6mm in one direction and 2mm in the other, if that makes sense.

Gregg,

Thank you for that. When I mentioned above that I could "cheat" my way to longer forward stitches, that's what I was referring to – that I was moving that clamp on purpose to allow more bias to the front stitches. If I balance that area to produce identical forward/reverse stitch lengths, I end up back at 6/spi in both directions.
