I'm not sure what you mean by "a manual for all these parts" as the manual found at
https://ismacs.net/singer_sewing_mac...al-rotated.pdf will give you threading instructions. As for the stitch length regulator my best guess is the knob turns to lengthen and shorten the stitch length and the lever is for reversing the direction of the stitches which would be locked to the length set by the knob. Unfortunately the OP that has this machine has not been on QB for over five years.
There is a Morse and an Admiral that have this stitch length regulator, but the upper tension is in a different position than the Mercury.
