Free Motion Quilting
With free motion quilting, the feed dogs can be
lowered by pressing
, so that the fabric can be
moved freely in any direction.
In this mode, the presser foot is raised to the
necessary height for free motion sewing.
We recommend attaching the foot controller and
sewing at a consistent speed. You can adjust the
sewing speed with the speed control slide on the
machine.

Memo
• In order to sew with a balanced tension, it
may be necessary to adjust the upper
thread tension (see page S-12). Test with a
sample piece of quilting fabric.
Note
• Make sure that the quilting foot is not
slanted.
CAUTION
• Be sure to securely tighten the screws with the
included screwdriver. Otherwise, the needle
may touch the quilting foot, causing it to bend
or break.
