Step 10- Rail Assembly; Step 11- Rail To Frame Assembly - Bernina Quilting Frame Assembly Instruction Manual

Step 10: Rail Assembly
Parts Needed:
8- Rail Segments
4- Rail Couplers
Note: Skip this step if setting up in Crib size.
10-1: Take (1) Rail and slide a Coupler inside the Rail until the center plastic ring on the Coupler
meets the end of the Rail, as shown in Fig. 10-1.
10-2: Slide another Rail on the open end of the Coupler until it meets the other Rail and the plastic
ring.
10-3: Turn the Rails in the opposite direction, as shown in Fig. 10-2, until you can't turn them
anymore.
10-4: Follow Step 10-1 through 10-3 for the other (3) rails.
Step 11: Rail to Frame Assembly
Parts Needed:
4- Rail Assembly
Note: Complete each rail separately.
11-1: Take the Ratchet Housing Top off by
squeezing the Push Tabs in on each side of the
Ratchet and slide off the top. Set the Ratchet
Housing Top aside.
11-2: Follow Step 11-1 for the opposite side of the frame.
Note: Don't install a rail into the Take Up Rail Housing until the
Step Placing Your Sewing Machine.
11-3: Place the Rails into the attached bottom Ratchet Housing
section and then return the top of the ratchet to its place. (Make
sure you put the Top Housing you took off on the exact same Bottom
Housing from which it was removed.)
11-4: Follow Step 11-1 through 11-3 for the other Rails, with the
(2) rails that are installed from the below, it may be necessary to enlist
the help of a second person. While both ends of the rail are being held
up into the housing, slide the Ratchet Housing Top back into the bottom
section.
Tip: Unscrew the end of Coupler
partly if Coupler doesn't fit in Rail.
