meg 493 Posted September 9, 2015 Report Share Posted September 9, 2015 If my thread is breaking only in stitch regulation, is adjusting my wheels the first place to start? Lola stitches fine in manual mode, but I have breakage in SR mode only. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Quilting Heidi 1,398 Posted September 9, 2015 Report Share Posted September 9, 2015 Meg you may have to back off your tension just a smidge. I find that my tension is often different in SR mode vs not. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
meg 493 Posted September 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2015 Thanks for responding, Heidi. I've tried adjusting my tension, but it still happens. I also notice some the stitch length is not uniform. Think it's my wheels? I hate to bug Amy, but I may have to. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Quilting Heidi 1,398 Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 Meg it might be the wheel on your SR. Have you cleaned all wheels and checked for any threads? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
meg 493 Posted September 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 Heidi... Yes, I did thoroughly clean everything. And my wheels weren't even that bad...just a little black stuff. I've been going in manual, but will need the SR eventually. I hate making adjustments...such a wimpy girl I am. Quilting Heidi 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jbnt9999 82 Posted September 11, 2015 Report Share Posted September 11, 2015 Have you checked the stitch regulator wheel? Onetime I had to push it closer so it had a better connection. It's the little black wheel on top. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Quilting Heidi 1,398 Posted September 11, 2015 Report Share Posted September 11, 2015 You probably just need to adjust the SR wheel, not hard Quote Link to post Share on other sites
