JUKI Tip: Adjusting Your Ruler Foot

Welcome to another tip with JUKI! Presented by our National Account Trainer Alba, we’re going to talk about quilting and our JUKI Ruler Foot for the TL Series.

In this video, we’re working on the JUKI TL-18QVP Semi-Industrial Sewing Machine and using our optional accessory the Ruler Foot. In this tip, we’re going to show you how to adjust that ruler foot for perfect stitching. You may notice that when you put your ruler foot on your machine it’s really high above your fabric and you never want to do that.

You really want the height of a credit card, a hotel key, or a thin plastic sheet and as you watch the video, you’ll see there’s a lot of height to start us off with, but the ruler foot has a screw on the side that you can turn and that will raise and lower your presser foot. Using your hotel card, or thin plastic sheet, will help you get that height you need and you’ll want to be where that credit card barely skims the bottom of that foot.

What this does is, as the needle goes up and down it prevents the fabric from bouncing and gives you those perfect stitches you want on your free motion quilt projects.
