Increase the Motor Torque Limit to lessen the motor sensitivity or decrease the Motor Torque Limit
to increase the motor sensitivity. Select the number box and enter the value. Typically entering 55
or 60 is sufficient to eliminate the error message except when there is a significant obstruction.
U
CAUTION
: Increasing the Motor Torque Limit means that the Pro-Stitcher motors will be less
responsive to obstructions and may continue running, potentially causing damage to the quilt.
Decreasing the Motor Torque Limit means that the Pro-Stitcher motors will stop more easily when
there is resistance.
Â
IMPORTANT
: Do not increase the Motor Torque Limit above 100 or decrease it below 40.
