applying force to one grip at a time.

■ Attaching the cap frame to the embroidery
machine
The cap frame driver is required in order to
attach the cap frame to the embroidery machine.
Before attaching the cap frame to the machine,
attach the cap frame driver to the carriage.
1 Attach the cap frame to the cap frame
driver.
As shown, turn the embroidering area to the
side when inserting the cap frame so the brim
of the cap does not hit the embroidery
machine.
• Be careful that the cap frame does not hit
any nearby parts, such as the presser foot.
After turning the cap frame so that the
embroidering area faces upward, align the
ring of the cap frame driver with the ring of
the cap frame. While sliding the cap frame to
the left and right, align the notch in the cap
frame with the guiding plate on the cap frame
driver, and grab the grips on both sides of the
cap frame, then push in the frame until it
snaps into place.
1 Guiding plate on the cap frame driver
2 Notch in the cap frame
3 Grip
The cap frame is secured with three
holders. This completes the installation of
the cap frame.
2 Attach the brim protector to the cap brim.
Position the three retainers (center, left and
right) of the brim protector under the cap
brim, and perfectly align the brim protector
with the upper frame.
1 Retainers on brim protector
• Attaching the brim protector prevents the
cap brim from rubbing against the machine
and becoming damaged during sewing.
• If there is enough space between the cap
brim and the machine, it may be possible
to sew without the brim protector.
