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 j ig 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 included cap frame is
installed.)

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 authorized dealer.
