Hi All,
I have a 14.5" x 14.5" large design that I was stitching out on the 20.7 x 16.8
hoop. On the screen, the edges of the design are near (not on top or over) the
edge of the dashed area of the hoop. I did a trace, and also went to
Tools/Hoop Setup.../Trace and received back the message that the "Trace was
Complete, the Design fits in the hoop".
But when I did the trace on the XT, I noticed that the laser trace clearance
was within 1/8" of the front of the hoop and almost 3/4" in the back (16.8"
length). When the #9 needle came near the front right corner of the hoop, I
heard this thump, the machine froze/stopped with the #9 needle screw on top of
the inner hoop. I had to turn the XT off and on. Fortunately, the #9 needle
and pressure foot still work. I don't want to risk that again and damage
something.
Is the clearance in the back of the hoop wider than the front of the hoop to
accommodate the pressure foot, even though the pressure foot is angled? If
not, do I need create a new hoop and re-orient the hoop center to give it more
clearance in the front? The V9 settings for this hoop won't let me edit the X
and Y Hoop offsets.
Or should I not trust V9 and just believe the laser tracing? What are the
inner hoop clearance minimums for the front and the back (wide part)? I think
the maximum sewing field is less than can be stitched for the 20.7" width.
Thanks!
Ed
