Hello all,
After reading various threads regarding "not trimming" and speaking with many a 
service tech at Melco, I'm reaching out to the group. (I can not get my local 
tech to come look at my machine, it's not his full-time job).  I
've done the following checks....removed needle plate, and checked housing, 
knife carrier, removed extrusion cover and checked push/pull cables, oiled 
trimmer.  Removed back plate, adjusted the selector and knife positioning 
according to photos in manual.  Looks good.....except, my cables are bent to 
attach to the eccentric.  Emailed photo to a tech, he said to replace cables, 
however, the way they attach, the cables would have to bend.  My machine does 
not look like the machine in the manual photo.  Was there a design change at 
some point?  The trimming is just so dang unpredictable!  Also, if it does 
trim, it leaves a short stub of thread coming from the bobbin pig tail and then 
doesn't pick it up so then is miss-starts.  I have the tail length set to 
"Long".  Thanks in advance, welcome any thoughts.  Photo attached, home 
position pictured.

Almont, Mich
