Any ideas of what the lever above the stitch width adjuster does?
That is the needle L-R-C selector. It also gives it some different stitches in the Left and Right position when using ZZ. The little knobs next to the width control are adjustable to regulate widths. There is also a release for those little stops on the knobs themselves. Cool design. Be careful of the feed dog drop. if it is frozen don't force it. It is under the length control. If you have trouble with that message me.
The slide plate, HA!!! you have to wonder why they bothered. It is a 90 degree turn and doesn't allow you to access to the bobbin.

Here is a picture of what I am talking about.
