Using Your Machine

Power Switch

The power switch is at the rear of the machine. Turn it on by toggling the switch from the 0 position to the
1 position.
 IMPORTANT: If you will not be using the machine for more than a day, we recommend you turn off
the machine and unplug the power cord from the power source.
 IMPORTANT: Refer to the safety instructions.

Lighting

The Baby Lock Coronet includes an LED light ring that illuminates the needle and stitching area. The light
automatically comes on when you turn on the machine. Turn off the lights using the Lights button on the
Main Screen. For more information about turning on and off the LED light ring, see Overview of the Main
Screen in the Using the Touch-Screen Display section of this manual.

Machine Needle

Use only the recommended needle system for your Baby Lock Coronet quilting machine. The machine
was timed to use this specific type of needle and it is designed to work with the high quilting speeds and
multidirectional stitching the Baby Lock Coronet offers.
The Baby Lock Coronet uses the 134 needle system. Note that the needle has a round shank rather than a
shank with a flat side like home sewing machines use.
If you use the recommended needle, you will experience:
• Fewer skipped stitches
• Less needle breakage
• Less thread breakage, especially at high speeds
• Less thread splicing or shredding
• Optimum fabric protection
 IMPORTANT: Change the needle regularly. We recommend you use a new needle for each new
quilt loaded on the machine, and any time the needle becomes bent, dull, or burred.
U CAUTION: A damaged needle may result in poor stitching quality or may even damage the machine
or your quilt.
To change the needle
1. Move the needle bar to the up position by pressing the needle up/down control on the handles.
2. Turn off all power to the machine.
