Memo:
• With the Section Size (for Hoop Size)
setting, the width and height of the sections
are 10mm smaller than the actual hoop size
in order to provide space for fine positioning
adjustments with adjustment sections. The
10mm is for overlapping.
• It is not necessary for the Section Size (for
Hoop Size) to match the Design Page size.
Select the hoop size to be used for sewing.
