To update everyone techsew graciously sent me a speed reducer with belts free of charge.

 

Now I am trying to figure out why my middle pressure foot doesn't walk properly.Here's a vid explaining what I mean

Your inner and outer foot lift are out of sync with each other. 

 

Watch Uwe's vid from this point here:

It's a different machine but the adjustment is very similar. Your foot height is fine, you just need to loosen and reset the foot lift crank screw. You want the outer and inner foot to have roughly equal lift. See page 50 of the Sailrite guidebook I linked to, it will show you which screws (marked "B") to loosen.
