Installation and Setup
Carriage
You should have already set up the HQ Studio2 Frame™. Refer to the frame manual for detailed instructions
about setting up the frame.
Â
IMPORTANT: Make sure the frame is set up for a 20-inch machine, not an 18-inch machine.
To install the carriage and machine on the frame
1. Place the carriage on the table rails, ensuring
that the stitch regulator faces the back of
the frame.
2. Place the machine on the carriage.
U
CAUTION: The HQ Amara 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, needle bar area or needle bar.
3. From the back of the machine, plug the carriage
stitch regulator cable into the top round jack on
the left hand side of the machine.
Â
IMPORTANT: If you ever need to remove the machine from the carriage, disconnect the stitch
regulator cable from the machine. Failure to unplug the cable when removing the machine from
the carriage could result in damage to the cable, encoders, and carriage.
