Hello, Rod or Sharon has just posted in the Machines & Hardware forum of AmayaUsers Discussion Boards under the title of Amaya XT not trimming 90% of the time. This thread is located at http://www.amayausers.com/discussion/showthread.php?5702-Amaya-XT-not-trimming-90-of-the-time Here is the message that has just been posted: *************** Tricia, The short tail on the bobbin pigtail you mentioned is a direct result of the knife/selector not functioning properly. It is why you must pay very close attention to setting the adjustment of these items. The short bobbin has to do with the selector not picking up the bobbin thread on its firing stroke and retracting empty handed. The knife then fires and cuts the bobbin thread off at the top of the bobbin case.
