1. Place cap stretcher securely
on a sturdy work bench.
2. As shown in Fig. 5, hold cap
frame with both hands and
place on cap stretcher. By
pushing locking levers at 2
places with fingers, place cap
frame so that center guide of
cap stretcher fits in concave
area of cap frame.
Confirm that the cap frame is securely
placed on cap stretcher.
3. As shown in Fig. 6, open clamp and
keep open to the right.
4. Take the front half of the sweatband out
of the cap and cover the cap stretcher
with the sweatband.
Cover the cap stretcher with the sweat-
band so that the edge of the sweatband
contacts the flange of the cap frame.
Please place one or two sheets of non-
woven fabric (backing) of standard thick-
ness under unstructured caps.
5. As shown in Fig. 7, pull back part of cap
and hook it temporarily on the hook and
smooth out wrinkles on cap.
At this time, align the center of the cap
to the center mark on the cap frame so
that notched portion of the clamp fits
into the seam of the visor of the cap.
6. Latch the hook, taking care not to
cause wrinkles in the cap.
If you can't get rid of wrinkles on the cap,
adjust the cap frame again according to
"Adjustment" of the previous page.
