4.7.3 Oil Stitcher Routine<br />
Quilting the Quilt - Which CS Feature To use<br />
Utility Functions<br />
Oil Stitcher Routine<br />
This is a special routine that can be part of the weekly cleaning and maintenance. It<br />
runs the sewing head motor at varying speeds backwards so the oil has a chance to<br />
penetrate some places that are otherwise hard to reach. New machines and certain<br />
climates may require this to be done more frequently.<br />
The process will take about 7 minutes to complete.<br />
4.7.4 Calibrate Stitcher Motor<br />
Calibrating the stitcher motors guarantees stitching accuracy. This doesn’t need to<br />
be done often but can be performed as needed. It should always be done after<br />
loading new software versions or performing any significant maintenance.<br />
1. Click on Tools<br />
2. Click on Calibrate Stitcher Motor<br />
3. Move the machine head off of the quilt, remove thread and bobbin case as<br />
prompted. Click OK when done. The needle will move as if it were stitching. When<br />
done, a dialog box appears with New Z-Counts. The value given will depend on the<br />
controller model being used.<br />
4. Click OK to end this procedure and continue stitching.<br />
