Machine Quilting Tip: Getting started with Manual mode
Set the machine at a medium speed (such as 1000) and begin moving it until you become
accustomed to the resistance. By moving the machine faster, the stitches will begin to
elongate. The stitch speed can either be increased or the machine can be moved slower
to get the stitches at your desired length. By moving the machine slower, the stitches get
shorter and can build up on top of each other, break the thread, or make it extremely
difficult to unpick. The stitching speed can be decreased, while maintaining a constant
motion with the machine to bring the stitches to the desired length.
Stitch Regulation
There are two stitch regulation modes: Cruise and Precision.
To use Cruise stitch regulation
ONLINE: For information about using Cruise stitch regulation, watch the video Using Cruise Stitch
Regulation at: http://www.handiquilter.com/videos/hq-infinity/235/.
• T o u c h t h e Regulated button and then touch the Cruise button.
After you press the Start/Pause button on the handlebars, the machine immediately begins quilting
according to the stitches-per-minute and stitches-per-inch settings. The Start stitching indicator in the
upper-left corner of the screen turns green and the needle begins moving up and down. Similarly, as you
bring your quilting to a stop, the needle will continue stitching at the cruise speed (stitches per minute)
until you press the stop button on the handlebars. The minimum speed of the needle is dependent upon
the stitches-per-minute setting you choose. Handi Quilter recommends beginning with a setting of 200.
Begin moving the machine to avoid stitching in place for too long.
Machine Quilting Tip: When to use Cruise stitch regulation
The constant minimum stitching speed featured in the Cruise stitch regulation is useful for
precise placement of stitching, such as when backtracking along the tops of feathers or
when creating sharp points such as the point of a star or the bottom of a heart.
