Default Vintage Adjustable Hemmer

Hi all, I'm playing around with my adjustable hemmer on Gertie (my 99K). I can get it to hem, but the stitches come out tiny and uneven. When I run the material through (not trying to hem) the stitches come out larger and even (photo attached). I am still kind of learning what Gertie can do. This is the first machine that has the knee control. She can sew just as fast as Mabel. Could the issue be speed or just lack of experience with the hemmer. I have a non quilting related project that I want to use the hemmer for.

Thanks,
Shari
