Using the Optional Cap Frame
By using the optional cap frame, patterns can be embroidered onto caps and hats. The procedures for using the
cap frame are described below.
Cap frame and its accessories
The cap frame driver and the mounting jig are required in order to use the cap frame.
Memo
●
Before installing the cap frame, be sure to adjust the ring of
the cap frame driver and the height of the L-shaped
bracket. (If the same machine is being used, this
adjustment is only required the first time that it is used. In
addition, this adjustment is not necessary if the enclosed
cap frame is installed.)
●
After the ring of the cap frame driver and the height of
the L-shaped bracket have been adjusted, they must be
adjusted again if a different machine is being used. The
height may differ depending on the machine that is
used. For details, contact your sales representative.
