I have a EMT 10 needle that sewed fine. I moved to the AMAYA and got the Y-tracking error. HOwever, I ruined 3 hats like this becuase I did not know you could to to the maintenance menu and head-up :( My AMAYA was giving me the error at a specific point of a cicular FILL. I found that by changing the fill direction from Vertical to 45 degrees, the Y-error went away. I also broke a needle before that. Also, my problem was on "unconstructed" hats and the Hoop-tec frame. The quality of the resultant sew geometry was so bad that I went BACK to the older 10 needle machine to finish the hats!!!!!!!!!!!! This was really dissapointing. I figure that the AMAYA hoop tecs which have a smaller diameter than the older 10 needle hat frame, creates too much friction between the inside of the hat and the needle plate area. Also, the AMAYA would turn a circle into a bad oval, where as the 10-needle would sew a perfect circle. Very long night for me last night!!!!!!!!!!!!
