Quilters call our service department and comment that their machine is "dead" and won't turn on!

Learn how to adjust your needle up/down speed on APQS machines with LED lights. This adjustment ensures that the machine cycles the needle to the up or down position correctly.

While APQS quilting machines rarely require timing, if a needle jam occurs you may need to give some TLC to your hook assembly and re-set it. This introduction will help you locate the best tools for the task, making the timing process simple and straight forward. Be sure to watch the entire timing series on the APQS Quilting Channel, along with other great videos to build your knowledge and expertise.

Prospective customers often ask us what to expect for typical problems or repairs to their APQS longarm machine. As much as we’d like to think that everything will stay the same forever and nothing will ever go wrong, they are, after all, still machines.
