You better post pictures of your machine or a video. Reg. short stitch - any chance the reverse lever is stuck in a certain position?

Hello Constabulary,

                                Thanks for your reply, i did try with the reverse lever all the down,stitch look good then i try to run the machine when lever all the way up stitch was very nice and leather feed through,now i know some settings are off on reverse feed lever,if you have any better idea to fix it please let me know.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           Thanks
