PamelaG Posted August 2, 2020 Report Posted August 2, 2020 Suddenly my 2017 Millie decided to take multiple stitches when I do a single needle up and down. All is clean, I double checked. This is without Quilt Path on too. I've heard to adjust screw 8, and also to adjust other things. But nothing has changed. SO how do I fix this?
Cagey Posted August 3, 2020 Report Posted August 3, 2020 To trouble shoot, I would test the up/down button on the other set of handles. If the rear up/down button only has the needle do a single movement, then it could be the front switch. Once you have more trouble shooting information, I would give APQS a call. They can direct you to a quick solution. 1-800-426-7233 Best of luck. Cagey
Cagey Posted August 4, 2020 Report Posted August 4, 2020 Then it would appear the needle up/down needs to be adjusted. I believe this video should help you , https://www.apqs.com/needle-adjustment-led-light-machines-video/ If after watching the video you still have questions, I suggest calling APQS to have all your questions answered. Best of luck.
RunningThreads Posted August 4, 2020 Report Posted August 4, 2020 I agree with Cagey. It is not uncommon for this to happen after your machine has broken in. The machine will turn a little quicker now and is spinning past the stop sensor so the motor stays on and tries for the next stop etc. The break-in happens so gradual you would never notice the speed change of the needle positioning. The number 8 screw adjustment is to slow down the positioning speed so you don’t overrun the magnetic stop sensors. Nigel
