Motor Fails to Run
Corrective Measure
On/Off switch turned off
•
Turn the machine on by using the switch on the back power pod.
Machine not receiving power
•
Check that the power connector is securely plugged into the
back of the machine and the three-prong end is plugged into the
power source.
Uneven Quilt Design
Corrective Measure
Take-up rollers may be bowed or
bent
•
Make certain the fabric is not rolled too tight, causing the poles
to bow. Check that poles are inserted completely together with
the push pin engaged so bowing won’t occur.
Leaders are stretched or worn
•
If fabric is beginning to stretch or fray, contact Handi Quilter to
purchase replacement leaders.
Thread Breaks
Corrective Measure
Thread is poor quality or may have
severe twisting or thread rot
•
Look for severe twisting of threads when approximately 12 to
15 inches has been pulled off, with the ends pinched together.
Cotton threads are particularly susceptible to dry rot or wet rot
which makes thread brittle. Do not use poor quality thread, or
thread that is rotted or brittle.
Top and bobbin tensions not
balanced
•
Check thread tension in top and bobbin for proper balance.
(For more information about adjusting tension, see
Bobbin and
Thread Tension Adjustments.
)
The machine head has been
threaded incorrectly or thread
spools are not positioned correctly
•
Check that the machine is threaded correctly.
•
Inspect for accidental double wrapping of thread on thread
guides.
•
Inspect the thread mast, making sure the eyelets of the mast are
directly over the spools.
•
Inspect the vertical positioning of the thread cones. Tipped
cones can dramatically affect thread tension and can cause
breakage.
Debris in tension discs
•
Inspect for particles and remove any fuzz or debris.
Bobbin rotation is not smooth
•
Change the bobbin. The slightest hesitation of the bobbin
rotation can be the cause of dramatic tension change and
thread breakage.
Needle is burred, bent or dull, or
installed incorrectly
•
Change the needle at least once per quilt. Make sure the needle
is installed to the top of the stop hole in the needle bar.
