Sounds like you have a countermache. I have been around looms a long time and have never seen a "combination" countermarche/jack. some looms have the capability to be set up for either, but your description is that of a countermarche. There are good directions on the Schacht website for setting up the Cranbrook looms (they build them), try that. Even if it is adifferent make, they are pretty standard.
Good luck,
