Special Note for Janome MB4 Users

Quick-Snap –

Depending on the size of your design, you may need to override the hoop designation when you are ready to sew using the Quick-Snap Hoops.  If the machine is defaulting to the small (or medium) hoop, and you cannot relocate your design to the proper place on the Quick-Snap frame, then you must override the default hoop with a larger hoop. 

To override the hoop designation on the MB4, complete the following steps: 

1. With the design up on the screen, select the MENU option on the LCD screen.
2. Then select the grid to open the editing window.
3. Then select the hoop selection option.
4. Override the M3 hoop with a larger hoop, such as M1.
5. Then relocate your design to the appropriate area where you want to stitch it.  ALWAYS trace the design to make sure it clears the hoop and is in the proper location for stitching.
