EMBROIDERY

Machine Side
Embroidering Continues when Thread is Tangled
If the thread remains tangled, the fabric may pucker and
ruin the nished embroidery. Stop embroidering, remove
the hoop and untangle the thread.
Top Thread Tension is Too Tight
This can cause the material to pucker and result in uneven
feeding, so reduce the thread tension (see page 17).
Needle Tip is Broken or Needle is Too Thick.
Select a correct needle (see page 18).
Thread is tangled somewhere along the thread path.
If the thread is tangled on the spool pin or somewhere
along the thread path, it will increase the thread tension
and cause the material to pucker, so check the thread (see
page 11-16).

Hoop Side
No Stabilizer Attached when
using Light or Stretch Fabric
Always use stabilizer together with the fabric in the hoop.
Material has not been Tightly Hooped
Tighten the material in the hoop so that it makes a sound
like a drum when the tightened surface is tapped with a
nger ( see page 43).
Embroidery Hoop is not Correctly Attached.
Attach the hoop securely to the hoop bracket with the hoop
attachment screws (see page 44).
Hoop is Obstructed Against Free Motion.
Check around the hoop and remove things which cause
obstruction.
