3 Important Steps when setting up your hoops

[@ssisters4343]

This is the only video that demonstrates what you need to do when using a mighty hoop with your Ricoma and understanding how to install them and how to use the hoop sizing on the machine to match your mighty hoops. It’s a month since I got my machine and until now I’ve not been able to figure out how to work with then. I cannot thank you enough! I told Ricoma they did not do this in their training and I

[@ssisters4343]

I bought my mighty hoops from them so thank you again so much!!!

[@RomeroThreads]

Yes, a very frequently asked question. Thank you for stopping by.

[@ssisters4343]

Thank you Romero. This was very helpful! Thanks for taking the time to thoroughly explain the hooping to the machine by size. Thank you!

[@RickeyDen]

Great tip on putting the brackets on your mighty hoop before you get to the machine. Thanks for sharing these tips with us.

[@RomeroThreads]

Yes, saved me lots of headaches, lol. Thanks.

[@kimberlykaufman]

Very helpful, especially your chart that lists the sizes and the correspondng letter size. Thank you!!!

[@RomeroThreads]

Thanks!!

[@Bonit4299]

You are awesome

[@christinemcqueen2359]

Thank you ! this is a great video very helpful. I am new at this thy of embroidery. Your demos are clear . I just got my might hoop kit about a month ago and decided to use it for the first time today. Your video really help me lose some of that intimidation for using new stuff. LOL again thank you so much!

[@irmaledezma]

Thank you so much for this tutorial video. I learn more from you in this one video than months attending the Ricoma classes thank you again and I am definitely going to subscribe to your channel.

[@RomeroThreads]

Thank you very much!!!

[@sleepygalZz]

Good video thanks

[@hteaser]

Thanks. Can you show for the example of 14"x 21" hoop ?

[@ParkAveLLC]

Do you know why the my pantograph jerks on the RICOMA tc -1501 when i trace designs around 12 in wide?

[@nikkisanchez3833]

Do you by chance have the center dimensions for the 11 x 13 might hoop on a ricoma?

[@TCCustomFit]

What would cause registration error with the Mighty Hoop? When I use the hoops that come with my Ricome MT 1501 my design comes out as it should, but when I use the Mighty Hoop the design comes out incorrect. Spaces where there shouldn't be or stitching to close to other stitching

[@dianarodriguez7208]

It’s the same thing on the Em 1010 at the time you have to set the hoop?

[@RomeroThreads]

Its the same concept. Your letters might be different on certain size hoops.

[@gapeach30316]

Great video. I'm still unclear how to set up the embroidery parameters for the hoops

[@RomeroThreads]

Hello, Ive never changed my parameters. I use the letter that closely matches my hoops. For example my most common mighty hoop is the 5.5x5.5, I'll use letter C which closely matches it. If Im using the 10x10 hoop, I'll use letter E. As long as your design fits in your hoop, you can choose the closest hoop size and trace to verify. Any questions let me know.

[@gapeach30316]

@@RomeroThreads some kind of way my D hoop parameters are not accurate. Whenever I do a trace the design field is way smaller then the hoop and using the E hoop parameters is way bigger. I just need to know what numbers go in the D hoop parameters to make it work again

[@saravasquez77]

Want is the size for the 8x13 mighty hoop for the em1010?

[@heatherrobinson2964]

I have the same machine as yours. If I wanted to use a hoop sized 5” x 10.341” what hoop preset should I use?

[@RomeroThreads]

I would use hoop E, but you have to make sure the design fits the hoop, and you trace 3 times.

[@johndoeee888]

Hey Romero, just got the Mighty Hoops for the EM1010. So for example i use the hoops that came with the machine. And its all centered. And when i use the mighty hoops and i pick the hoop size thats closest to it. But its not centered. Would you suggest changing the X/Y axis for center or just manually center it everytime you use the mighty hoops?

[@RomeroThreads]

The machine probably needs to get centered on the pantograph. If it’s a small difference to the center, I would just manually center it. The hoops are centered so if the machine is center the hoops will be centered.

[@meme9219]

you seem to be the smartest guy on youtube about embriodery so i hope you can answer this issue im having an issue my ricoma mt-1501 machine not holding thread after sewing a color after color change dont know if i acidently touched a setting or if was the software change from wilcom to croma ?

[@RomeroThreads]

Ok very odd situation. What I would check is the entire thread path make sure it isn’t jamming up somewhere (if its happening on one specific needle). And check above the bobbin area, the cutter, make sure its clean, and check picker, that its clean. Other than that, check the tension, make sure it isn’t pulling to tight on the top tensions. It definitely isn’t a digitizing software issue, its a machine set up. Hope this helps a bit.

[@meme9219]

@@RomeroThreads ok i fixed the problem the linkage on the hook that grabs the thread was glitching or hitching but is working properly now ricoma says it happens a lot

[@bestelln]

Completely unrelated, but how did you find your first clientele, and do you still use the same methods to find them?

[@RomeroThreads]

Very good question, thanks. My 1st customers was friends and family, then it shifted to word of mouth. Now, we work w/ certain company's on contract orders, fulfilling their employees orders. So the methods have shifted over the years.

[@jdsan2636]

hello, I have a 5.5 x 5.5 mighty hoop. Do you have a tutorial on how to use the "other" option in the hoop category so I can perfectly match it on the system instead of tapping on hoop C which is a few inches shorter than my mighty hoop. I hope my question make sense lol.

[@RomeroThreads]

What I would do is select hoop D, but you have to be super careful and trace 3 times before stitching. Usually hoop C is pretty close and has always worked for us.

[@nickblumer1553]

How do you change the hoop size in the machine settings? My "C" hoop says 130 x 130 on the machine but on the hoop it's self it says 150 x 150. Will I have to worry about changing the size when using the 5.5" Mighty Hoop? GREAT CONTENT!!

[@RomeroThreads]

I have never changed any of my hoop parameters. You just have to make sure your design fits inside the hoop and trace your design before pushing start. Hoop C with the 5.5 mighty hoop is what I always use. Thanks for the comment.

[@syltoy2745]

YOU SHOWED the measurement of the 13 x 4.25 hoop, but no mention of the hoop choice on the control panel. I have called RICOMA 6 times for what hoop do I select to stitch vertical in this hoop? I have the yoke of a jacket and i'm stitching down the hoop. I have the words on the screen correctly, but no hoop seems to work. I need help, but this video is 2 years old so, i'm probably still out of luck. I'm asking anyway. I have the garment installed in the hoop, but don't know the right hoop.

[@RomeroThreads]

I use hoop F and turn the design 90 degrees.

[@dunia8956]

Hi, the 4x13 fits on ricoma em1010?

[@RomeroThreads]

Hello, yes, I think it should fit. You can call Mighty Hoops to get a confirmation. I don't have the 1010. I will confirm all the sizes compatible w/ the 1010 and list them here in the description, thanks.

[@saravasquez77]

how can you put 5x5 mighty hoop on a em 1010?

[@RomeroThreads]

You can use hoop b or hoop c. Just make sure you always trace your designs.

[@saravasquez77]

@@RomeroThreads l have the em1010 ricoma ....l try to put the mighty hoop 5x5 in, but it is to small ....do l have to adjust the machine arms?

[@RomeroThreads]

I don't have the 1010 but I would think you can just attach them like the other brackets.

[@samota7]

Thank. Very important information. QQ: How can I add a Mighty hoop 8x9 or any other size that is not showing in EM 100 machine?

[@RomeroThreads]

I use the size thats closest to the mighty hoop size. Ive never changed hoop parameters on my flats. I just make sure I trace my designs 3 times.

[@craftyworkingmama]

So when I did the second trace my presser foot hit the hoop and bent a little. Any tips on how to fix it?

[@RomeroThreads]

With some lineman or needle nose pliers, bend/ push the presser foot back into place. Take out the needle so you can get it back centered. Let me know if that helps.

[@meme9219]

tajima mighty hoop same as Ricoma ? in stock number comparison they show same number on ricoma website .

[@RomeroThreads]

Yes they are. If there’s any question about getting the right order you can call them, they’ll confirm. Thanks.

[@nicholasrodriguez-u8l]

Would these dimensions for the hoops work for ricoma em1010?
