Using Your Machine

Power Switch

The power switch is at the rear of the machine. Turn it on by toggling the switch from the 0 position to the

1 position.

IMPORTANT

: If you will not be using the machine for more than a day, we recommend you turn off

the machine and unplug the power cord from the power source.

IMPORTANT

: Refer to the safety instructions.

Lighting

The Platinum Q|165 includes an LED light ring that illuminates the needle and stitching area. The light

automatically comes on when you turn on the machine. Turn off the lights using the Lights button on the

Main Screen. For more information about turning on and off the LED light ring, see

Overview of the Main

Screen

in the

Using the Touch-Screen Display

section of this manual.

Machine Needle

Use only the recommended needle system for your Platinum Q|165 quilting machine. The machine was

timed to use this specific type of needle and it is designed to work with the high quilting speeds and

multidirectional stitching the Platinum Q|165 offers.

The Platinum Q|165 uses the 134 needle system. Note that the needle has a round shank rather than a

shank with a flat side like home sewing machines use.

If you use the recommended needle, you will experience:

•

Fewer skipped stitches

•

Less needle breakage

•

Less thread breakage, especially at high speeds

•

Less thread splicing or shredding

•

Optimum fabric protection

IMPORTANT

: Change the needle regularly. We recommend you use a new needle for each new quilt

loaded on the machine, and any time the needle becomes bent, dull, or burred.

CAUTION

: A damaged needle may result in poor stitch quality or may even damage the machine or

your quilt.

To change the needle

Move the needle bar to the highest position by turning the rear hand wheel or pressing the needle

up/down control on the handles. Then turn off the power.
