I do my settings a bit differently tho. My Auto-Actifeed is set to a 7 or an 8 minumum, depends on the cap and amount of backing. My presser foot is up 3-4 clicks from the bottom, still want it to do it's job. You also need to keep an eye on your needles. I have a repeat job on some wool blend OTTO caps that will eat the tip off a needle in about 20K stitches.
