Stitch Regulator Noise

[Gina]

Hi All,

With Connie saving the day as usual, I finally figured out (sort of) my SR. My next question is, is it normal for the SR to sort of "chug" as you're pushing it around? And when you're doing a panto and hesitate a little as you're turning a corner or whatever, is it ok if it sounds like it's almost stopping? I mean, I know the SR is still on when that happens, but is the noisiness normal? Being up near Boston, I'm terrified I'm going to kill my Liberty and have no "techies" out here.

Thanks, Gina

Hi Gina,

I think what you are describing is normal. Remember, when you slow down to go around a corner or a point, the machine will slow down with you. So it will hesitate or almost stop, if you are doing the same thing with your movement. If your SR isn't working properly, you would see large stitches or it will look like skipped stitches. So you can check for those things, but I think you are fine.

Take care,
