I just unboxed a King Quilter and this Handi Quilter video was INVALUABLE in getting set up. 🥰 Thank you so much! 🥰 I've had more questions answered from this video than anything I have received from my King Quilter folk. (Yes, I'm worried about that 😬! )
@@HandiQuilter Hi!! How can one RAISE their longarm w/frame...once it is all together?? I know what needs to be done to do it, but how can one lift the frame without hurting anything? Heavy!! TIA!
Thank you for the video. I do have a question tho. What is the 2 short pieces of Velcro for, the ones attached on the outside of the machine where the bungees are.
One thing that I was hoping to see was how to adjust the height of the frame. Reading the instructions and viewing this video, it looks like I will have to almost completely disassemble the frame to get to a point where I can increase the height of the frame.
And they tell you to set it at the LOWEST height when putting it together. So I thought they’d eventually tell how to set to the correct height, but they never did.
You are very welcome. We know it's hard to be on your own. Our videos are filmed with the intention of helping quilters have the best quilting experience possible. Enjoy your "new-to-you" machine.
Should be noted that the assembly video does not include any information on connecting front pole bracket to rear pole bracket. Just spent two hours trying to figure it out. Otherwise the video is awesome. Needs to be updated for syre
In my attempts to square up/replace leaders, I discovered that my take up and dead bars measure higher off the top of the table (where rails for machine) higher on one end than the other end and seem to sag in the middle. On the end where the bars are higher, the table top measures lower from the floor than opposite end. Could the problem be that my frame has become unlevel? Could leveling solve the problem with the bars not measuring same from table top?
I have a studio frame; every time I hit the slots on my table my machine “races” and my stitches go crazy; I’m assuming my tracks aren’t aligned? It happens at both slots (I have a 12 ft table). What do I do? Thanks.
HELP PLEASE~ How do you take one down a 12ft longarm, that your deceased husband put together for a long move? Is there any videos on taking down? Luckily we kept all boxes, but no one came to put ours together, it was my husband who put it altogether within 1 hour and 45 minutes. HELP please!
I aligned my velcro on top of the buttons that hold the poles together, since they are in a straight line it was easy to make sure I was going straight.
To get a smooth connection between the sections you will want to loosen the screws attaching the track the wheels glide on. Slide the carriage across to position the track, then tighten the screws.

Thank heaven for instruction videos. So much better than reading the manual.
Glad it was helpful!

@@jo-vb6gpI have the same question. Only I don’t know how to do it. Looking for a video bc mine is too low and it’s hurting my back. A lot.
Thank you for these instructions, i purchased the frame used and was able to set it back up following the video step by step.
This was great to have this video! Thank you!

Thank you for this. It is so concise and clear.

There are no screws to loosen to remove the tracks. How do I get them off? They don't slide either!

I wondered the same thing.
Is this the same frame as the HQ studio 2 frame that I will be getting with the Amara, do you have a video to set up this frame?
This is not the same frame that you will be getting with the Amara. There are instructions in the manual for setting up this frame.
Curious as to how these ladies ensured that the leader velcro is straight without marking a line the length of the pole
I aligned my velcro on top of the buttons that hold the poles together, since they are in a straight line it was easy to make sure I was going straight.
I have the studio frame and where the 2 ft section meet My machine will not glide smoothly. What can I go to correct it?
To get a smooth connection between the sections you will want to loosen the screws attaching the track the wheels glide on. Slide the carriage across to position the track, then tighten the screws.
Where can I buy this frame
Joyce Weaver Amazon has the 12 ft frame for $2400.
