Marciaa Posted December 24, 2021 Report Share Posted December 24, 2021 Is it OK for me to raise the back legs of the quilting machine frame? I would like to do this in order to see better the area where I'm quilting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RunningThreads Posted December 24, 2021 Report Share Posted December 24, 2021 If you raise the back of the table you will be pushing the machine uphill and pulling it downhill. I think you would find it very hard to control the machine. You are told to level the machine when you first set it up so it requires equal effort to move in all four directions.

Nigel That makes very good sense. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SueD Posted December 24, 2021 Report Share Posted December 24, 2021 Have you considered raising the whole table a bit? This would give you a better viewing angle of the quilting area. You still want your hands in a comfortable position so it helps if your handles are adjustable. My older Lenni had the fixed vertical handles but I upgraded to the curved adjustable ones and I’m glad I did. Sue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimerickson Posted December 28, 2021 Report Share Posted December 28, 2021 I agree with Sue. Try changing the table height. Maybe up, maybe down. It might be easier to tell which direction to go my raising or lowering yourself LOL. Good luck. Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
