1 Small or medium embroidery frame
2 Extra-large or large embroidery frame
3 Screw

Place the stabilizer and fabric with right side up on top
of the outer frame.

Either side can be used as the front.
c
Press the inner frame into the outer frame.

is hooped in the embroidery frame.
d
Lightly tighten the screw.
• Align the inner and outer frames so that their tops are
even.
e
Securely tighten the screw, and then check to make
sure that the fabric is taut.
• Use the 3-way screwdriver to tighten the screw
securely.
• After securing the fabric, lightly tapping it should
produce a drum-like sound.
• Firmly clamp together the inner and outer frames so
that their tops are even.
■ Using the embroidery sheet
In order to hoop the fabric so that the pattern will be
embroidered in the correct position, use the guidelines on
the embroidery sheet to accurately align the fabric in the
frame.
a
With a fabric marker, mark the area of the fabric you
want to embroider.
CAUTION
• Use the four included frames or recommended
optional frames.
• If the size of the embroidery frame is wrong,
the embroidery frame may hit the presser foot
and damage the machine or cause injury to the
user. (For details on embroidery frames, refer
to page 68.)
Note
• The embroidery frame indicators show all
embroidery frame sizes in which the embroidery
pattern can be embroidered. Be sure to use an
embroidery frame of the most suitable size. If an
embroidery frame that is too large is used, the
pattern may be misaligned or the fabric may
pucker. (page 67)
