QUILT MAKER PRO 20
Reset-bobbin: The number on this button shows an estimate of how much
thread remains on the bobbin. This number updates as you quilt. As the number
gets closer to zero, the bobbin is running out of thread. Press the reset button
after a bobbin change if you are using the low-bobbin alarm. This resets the
low-bobbin reading to indicate you are using a full bobbin. For more information
about the low-bobbin settings, see To add a new bobbin configuration and
record bobbin capacity in the Toolbar Options section of this manual.
Â
IMPORTANT: Touch this button only to reset the bobbin capacity to
indicate a full bobbin. If you want to open the Low Bobbin Alarm screen,
select the Machine Settings toolbar button and then select the
Low Bobbin Alarm screen.
To use the on-screen hand wheel
The on-screen hand wheel enables you to rotate the hand wheel from the Main
screen rather than reaching around the machine to do it manually.
Drag your finger down from the top of the on-screen hand wheel (in the
direction of the arrows) to cycle the needle bar and the presser bar.
NOTE: You can, if necessary, move your finger in an upward motion to
turn the hand wheel in the opposite direction. You’ll typically do this only
when you need to break a thread lock.
Stitching Modes
The QMP 20 enables you to choose between two modes of stitch regulation Cruise or Precision; or to
choose manual stitching. It also includes a basting mode.
Manual Stitching Mode
When using the manual stitching mode, the length of the stitch is determined by how quickly or slowly
you move the machine, in combination with the number of stitches per minute (up to 2500) that you
have selected. For a consistent stitch length, you will need to move the machine at a consistent speed.
Experiment with different combinations of quilting speed and stitches per minute to find what optimally
works for you.
