PamelaG Posted August 2, 2020 Report Share 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 Share 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PamelaG Posted August 3, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2020 Happens with the rear buttons too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cagey Posted August 4, 2020 Report Share 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RunningThreads Posted August 4, 2020 Report Share 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
