IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read all instructions before using this machine.
When using this machine, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:
DANGER
— To reduce the risk of electric shock:
• A quilting machine should never be left unattended when plugged in. Always unplug the machine
from the electrical outlet immediately after using and before cleaning.
WARNING
— To reduce the risk of burns, fire, electric shock, or injury to persons:
• The HQ Infinity is heavy. Never attempt to lift it alone. Always use two people when lifting. Always
lift from the throat of the machine, not from the handlebars.
• Always unplug the HQ Infinity from the electrical outlet when performing any maintenance,
changing the needle, removing thread locks, or when left unattended.
• Do not unplug by pulling on cord. To unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.
• Keep fingers away from all moving parts. Use caution around the needle or sharp external
components.
• Change the needle often. Do not use bent or dull needles. “Every quilt deserves a new needle”.
• Switch the machine to the symbol off, or 0, position to turn it off when making any adjustments in
the needle area, such as threading needle, changing needle, threading bobbin, changing hopping
foot, and so forth.
• Never drop or insert foreign objects into any opening.
• The HQ Infinity should only be used indoors away from moisture.
• The HQ Infinity should not be stored or used in extreme temperatures.
• Use the HQ Infinity only for its intended use as described in this manual.
• To disconnect from the wall outlet, push the switch to the off position, then remove the plug from
outlet pulling from the plug, not the cord. Never operate the HQ Infinity if the cord is damaged or
not working correctly. If a mechanical or electrical problem is encountered, return the HQ Infinity
to the nearest authorized service center or the manufacturer for examination, repair, electrical, or
mechanical adjustment.
• It is not recommended that the HQ Infinity quilting machine be used with any machine quilting
frame other than those recommended by Handi Quilter.
