embroidery with stretch fabrics, thin

• Objects are placed near the arm or
embroidery hoop.
– If the embroidery arm or embroidery
hoop bumps into objects, the designs
will be distoreted. Do not place
objects within the range of any
embroidery hoop motion.
• Material coming out of the embroidery
hoop is causing problems.
– Stretch the fabric on the hoop once
again so that the material coming out
of the embroidery hoop does not
cause problems, rotate the design
and embroider.
• Heavy fabric is being embroidered,
and the fabric is hanging off the table.
– If embroidery is done with the fabric
hanging off the table, the embroidery
module movement will be affected.
Support the fabric while embroider-
ing.
• The fabric is being caught. It gets
jammed.
– Stop the sewing machine and arrange
the fabric correctly.
• The arm was moved while the embroi-
dery hoop was being removed or
attached during embroidery.
– If the arm is moved during the pro-
cess, the design may be distorted.
Be careful when removing or attach-
ing the embroidery hoop.
