SECURING FABRIC IN EMBROIDERY
HOOP
For the best embroidery results, place a layer of stabilizer
beneath the fabric. When hooping stabilizer and fabric make
sure that they are smooth and securely hooped.
1. Open the Quick Release Lever on the outer hoop and
remove the inner hoop.
2. Place the outer hoop on a rm at surface with the screw
on the lower right. There is a small arrow in the center of
the left edge of the outer hoop which will line up with a
small arrow on the inner hoop.
3. Place stabilizer and the fabric, with the right sides facing
up, on top of the outer hoop.

4. Place the inner hoop on top of the fabric with the small
arrow at the left edge and push rmly into the outer hoop.
5. Close the Quick Release Lever. Don’t force the Quick
Release Lever. If it seems as though it doesn’t want close,
loosen the retaining screw rst and then try closing the
Quick Release Lever again.
6. Adjust the pressure of the outer hoop by turning the
retaining screw. The fabric should be taut in the hoop for
the best results.
NOTE:
When embroidering additional designs on the same fabric, open
the Quick Release Lever, move the hoop to the new position
on the fabric and close the quick release lever. When changing
type of fabric, you might need to adjust the pressure using the
retaining screw. Do not force the Quick Release Lever.
