3. Hoop Feed Position

• In order to ease mounting and dismounting of the embroidery hoop, another needle position

can be set as a hoop feed position in the movable area additionally to the current needle
position.

• In order to ease material attachment while operation is suspended, the hoop can be moved

to the feed position at any time by the hoop feed switch.

• The hoop can also be moved to the feed position automatically after embroidering is finished.

Refer to "Hoop Automatic Retract" on Page 89 for details.
