To quilt in the regulated precise quilting mode, take the following steps:
1.
Confirm that the
stitch length
, measured in stitches per inch, is the desired length. Note: This
can be changed to stitches per centimeter in the Settings menu (see page 27).
• Press to reduce the number of stitches per inch and increase stitch length.
• Press to increase the number of stitches per inch, which decreases stitch length.
2. Check the stitch button icon. When stitching is inactive, pressing this button or the stitch
button on the handlebars will create a single stitch, or toggle the needle to the up or down
position, depending on settings. To switch the type of stitch created, go to the Settings menu
(see page 27).
3. Position the quilting machine over the quilt. If needed, use the needle jog buttons to move the
needle closer or further from the fabric in small increments to help place your first stitch.
• Press to move the needle up or down in small increments.
The machine defaults to the regulated precise quilting mode when turned on. In this regulated
quilting mode, the machine maintains the length of the stitch despite the speed and direction of the
quilter’s movements. If the quilter stops moving, the machine stops stitching.
To switch to a different quilting mode, press the next quilting mode button.
