  • Let go single-stitch button
  • PRO - Put dial to B1; FQE – Move rear slide fully to your left

  • Move machine as process continues (useful for basting) – avoids pile-up of stitches
  • When complete, turn machine off then on again in normal mode

IS-98/IS-98 – Manual power increase/decrease

After warm-up, have thread anchored in selvedge area. Tension of thread is a factor:

  • Turn off machine

To Decrease activity and/or bring end-postion of take-up lever back to top quarter of slot:

  • IS-2KN: turn Down light on (D for Down), IS-98: put slide to Reg (R for Reduce)
  • To increase activity and/or promote end-postion of take-up lever to top quarter of slot, do the opposite – ie IS-2KN – down light off; IS-98 - slide to Free
  • Push and hold red single-stitch button and click with black start button
  • Beep indicates a new setting has happened. Let go single-stitch button
  • Move the machine as process continues (useful for basting) – avoids pile-up of stitches
  • Recycle instructions from coloured line down until desired result is achieved
  • When complete, turn machine off then on again in normal mode – test performance.


Auto-adjust – no problem. Do it at start of day or whenever you’re starting a new quilt (senses resistance to needle – adjusts for conditions and/or work in hand. Especially do it if you’re getting needle over-run or for differing ambient temperatures.

Manual-adjust - may be best to alter things just one or two steps at a time before test-sewing. Just sneak up on settings that suit the present conditions. Should take only 10 seconds once you’ve got the hang of it and will make sewing more enjoyable for you.
