Could you please clarify your question about the margins around the design?
That may help solve this problem.
If the design is inside the dotted line shown on the screen when you hit the
<start> button it should sew out without hitting the hoop. If the hoop limits
are correct and enabled the machine will stop before the needle or pressor foot
hit anything.
There are several things you can do to make sure the hoop limits are correct
for the hoop you are using. First, install the hoop with some scrap cloth,
select the hoop and hit the "center hoop" toolbar button. Turn on the laser and
mark the position of the dot with a Sharpie. Using a ruler, measure to make
sure the mark is at the physical center of the hoop. Next move the rack using
the arrow keys, the rack will not move past the hoop limits. Make sure the
laser does not get closer than about 3/8" to the hoop. If it does you run the
danger of hitting the hoop.
What exactly happened when you traced the design? It sounds like there was a
problem. Did you get an error?
Also could be some other mechanical interference with the hoop that is causing
the problem.
Always, before sewing a design for the first time, do a trace and make sure it
completes with no errors and that the laser spot does not get too close to the
hoop.
