Basting Stitches
There are four basting stitch settings, controlled by the stitches per inch function. Ensure the Fusion is in
stitch-regulation mode. After the SPI reaches its lowest stitch setting of 4 stitches per inch, continue to
press the
– (minus) button see the basting settings:
•
0.5-inch baste (one stitch every half-inch movement of the machine)
•
1-inch baste (one stitch every one inch movement of the machine)
•
2-inch baste (one stitch every two inches of movement of the machine)
•
4-inch baste (one stitch every four inches of movement of the machine)
After selecting the basting stitch setting, begin quilting by pressing the Start button on the handlebars. As
you move the machine across the quilt, it will perform a stitch (needle down and then needle up) every
half inch, one inch, two inches, or four inches according to your choice. The basting stitch options are
available only in stitch regulation mode.
NOTE: You can use the Plus and Minus handlebar buttons to change the length of the basting
stitch or the number of stitches per inch while quilting. However, to switch between basting and
quilting stitches per inch, you must first stop the machine.
