Hi, I've not used my machine for quite sometime, so today I thought i'd use it. the tension is fine, I 've cleaned the machine of lint yet whatever setting I turn the dial to, the stitch length remains very small. I've tried testing different types of fabric, needle, threads but nothing seems to make any difference. Can you suggest anything?
