X-rack Installation
1. Remove the blue 12-foot rack
(Page 3.3, A)
and
the HQ Pro-Stitcher carriage
(E)
from the box.
Cut the cable ties from the front of the carriage
(
Figure 3.2
)
.
2. Starting at one end of the table, begin mounting
the blue rack to the table. Peel back just a few
inches of the protective layer of the tape. Position
the blue rack using the wooden alignment block
(M)
as a guide. The wood block should be laid flat
on the black plastic table top, butted against the
inside edge of the front aluminium track extru-
sion
(see
Figure 3.3
)
. The blue rack then butts against
the opposite side of the block so the blue rack is
mounted 2” away from the front track. The block
should be flat on the table and not on top of the
blue rack or the aluminium extrusion. Press
down on the blue rack to stick it firmly to the
table. Pull the pink protective layer from the back
side of the rack while shifting the block down the
length of the table until about two feet of the rack
have been mounted.
3. Place the HQ Pro-Stitcher carriage on the frame
