how to use mighty hoop fixtures (arm type) on the stations
FIXTURE WITH FREESTYLE ARM
Each Mighty Hoop Fixture is shipped together with it's FreeStyle arm. The FreeStyle arm is used to attach the fixture to the FreeStyle Mounting Base.
(The only exception is the 4.375" round hoop fixture. It ships without the arm as it is designed to work without it.)
Separating the fixture from the FreeStyle arm
Two pins on the back of this fixture are used to attached the fixture to the FreeStyle arm. They simply pull apart.
It is necessary to remove the FreeStyle arm when you want to mount the fixture on a HoopMaster Station.
Option 1: Mounting on a station
The two pins on the back of this fixture are designed for easy mounting on the HoopMaster Station. Select any set of holes to give you left, right or central positioning.
The FreeStyle Arm is not used when mounting the fixture on the stations.
Option 2: Mounting on FreeStyle Mounting Base
Slide the FreeStyle Arm over the screw on the base and tighten the black wingnut. The arm should also clip over the metal pin in the middle of the base, which will prevent sideways movement.
It is not necessary to separate the fixture from the arm to perform this step.
Hoop Specific
The Hoopmaster Fixtures are each designed for a specific hoop size. Select the fixture for the hoop size that you want to use.
The hoop brackets have no impact on the fixture. That means, the fixtures will work with brackets of any machine brand, as along as it is a Mighty Hoop of the same size as the fixture.
Stabilizer clamps
Place your stabilizer over the bottom ring and use the black tabs to firmly clamp down on the stabilizer. This will prevent your stabilizer from moving out of position while hooping your item.
Hooping
Once your item to be hooped is positioned over the bottom ring, place the top ring with brackets on the arms of the fixture.
Press down on the top hoop and let the magnets do the work. Your item will be instantly hooped between the two magnetic rings!
