Your Thread Stand
Your Apprentice Plus comes with a four spool thread stand. This thread stand is connected to the side
of your machine and can hold bobbin thread you are using to wind onto your bobbins and the top thread
you are using to quilt. You can also have a second spool of thread on the stand if you are using two
different threads on your quilt. This 4 spool thread stand has a telescoping thread holder which needs to
be all the way up when you are quilting to help the thread come off the spool evenly and smoothly.
Step 1:
If the telescoping thread tree is not on the thread
stand then you will need to attach it.
Step 2:
Slide the telescoping thread tree into the hole
provided between the tread holders.
Step 3:
Using the supplied screw with washer insert from
the bottom side to secure the telescoping thread tree in
place.
Step 4:
On the left side of your machine ( the left side of
the machine is the side with the motor) you will see two
screws not holding anything on yet.
See figure 15
Step 5:
Loosen these two screws. You don’t need to take
them out but they do need to be loose so that you can
slide the thread stand over them.
Step 6:
On the thread stand you will see two holes on the
underside which can be placed over the two screws and
then drop into place.
See figure 16
Step 7:
Once you have the thread stand in place over the
two screws tighten the screws to hold the thread stand in
place.
See figure 16
Remember to pull the telescoping thread tree to the full up
position to use.

Connecting your Apprentice Plus to your Carriage Assembly
Your Carriage Assembly will need the encoder assemblies attached to the carriage before placing your
machine on the carriage. Using the Apprentice Plus encoder assembly instructions attach your encoder
assembly to the carriage.
Step 1:
Locate the encoders and cables on the carriage. Check them for damage prior to
placing the machine onto the carriage.
See figure 18
Note: If your encoder assemblies are not installed on your carriage, use the Apprentice Plus install
instructions and install the encoder assembly before loading your machine on the carriage.
Step 2:
Place the machine on the upper carriage. Center the machine as much as possible to
get the full range of the quilting area.
Step 3:
Locate the upper carriage encoder cable and connect it to the second connection
point on the side of the power box.
Step 4:
Locate the lower carriage encoder cable and connect it to the third connection point
on the side of the power box.
