BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Remember you will need a table or surface wide enough to support your machine's new width
2
Old and new machines
Carefully remove all the needles from the needlebed (you will be removing the sponge and they will fall out) Video: How to Remove the Needles
3
Old Machine:
Identify where the pieces join (turn the machine over if you need to make it more clear)
Use a blade to slice the number strip
4
Turn the machine over and remove the 4 screws holding the bracket in place
5
Separate the pieces.
Remove the sponge
6
New Machine:
Repeat the steps above
Remove the sponge and join the old piece to extend the new machine
Repeat for the 2nd extension piece if desired
7
If joining 2 pieces of sponge, align the edges so the needles are on either side of the split and are supported.
