Tufting looks uneven on the back

Possible causes:

• the cloth is not streched (it need to be tight like a drum)
• the pressure you apply is to low (Apply force, make sure your yarn guide is not touching the cloth)
• the distance from the canvas spring to the foot is to high (should be 6 or 7 mm, 8 if you use acrylic yarn.

My tufting gun is making holes in the cloth

Possible causes:

• The cloth is not streched (it need to be tight like a drum)
• The position of the foot is incorrect, it should be right below the needle hole (like almost touching the bottom of the needle hole) when  the needle is in the highest position.

My yarn wont stay in the cloth

Possible causes:

• Your needle doesnt reach far enough because yhe position of the foot is incorrect, it should be right below the needle hole (like almost touching the bottom of the needle hole) when  the needle is in the highest position.
