Instructions for installing SureStitch on Dual Track Frames

Step 2-1:

  Secure the Display Console to your quilting frame with the included velcro strap.  Place 

the Display Console so that the controls will be easily accessible while you are quilting.

(

NOTE:

 Do not attach all the wires until after Step 5.)

Step 1 - Encoder  Assembly

Step 1-2:

  Attach the Steel Dual Track Bracket to 

each Encoder by sliding the post with the Spring into 

the hole on the Bracket (see Fig. 1-2). Insert the 

Screws and Plastic Washers removed in Step 1-1.

Step 1-1:

  For each Encoder Assembly remove 

the pre-assembled Plastic Bracket in order to 

attach the Steel Dual Track Bracket. This is 

done by first removing the Nut at the bottom of 

the Encoder and removing the Steel Washers, 

Spacer and Bolt once the Nut is removed (see 

Fig. A-1). Then remove the Screws and Plastic 

Washers on the back of the Encoder (they will 

be used in the nest step). 

Be careful not to lose your springs.
