1/4" [6mm] is a good number to remember when it comes to max. satin stitch 
width. This doesn't mean that at times it won't be necessary to go a bit wider 
but try to keep to 1/4" or less as much as possible.

Creating satin stitches wider than 1/4" will   1) put extra demand on the 
machine while stitching   2) create embroidery which is more susceptable to 
loose stitching / snags   3) often mean more pull on the material.

If satin stitches become too wide, they will be converted to jump stitches by 
the software ... and stitches a series of jump stitch is not a pleasant process 
for a machine.
