Hello, Mike Garber has just posted in the Machines & Hardware forum of AmayaUsers Discussion Boards under the title of XTS Hats. This thread is located at http://www.amayausers.com/discussion/showthread.php?5705-XTS-Hats Here is the message that has just been posted: *************** We have 2 new XTS machines that are struggling when sewing hats. I am trying to sew a sarif text logo about 3/4 of an inch from the brim. When the machine gets to the bottom of the text closest to the brim we get constant false thread breaks. It is a structured hat with 1pc of 3oz backing. Have tried material thickness of 9-11. We have taken off the wings and adjusted the cap driver several times. We have older red heads (with raised needle plate and wings) that sew the design fine. Anyone have any suggestions?
