Yeah, its frustrating having all those pullouts. I really don't notice them too bad anymore which means either I don't run the machines enough or my ties fixed the problems. I was having pullouts on my EMT's not too long ago and after returning to work one Monday my dad did the maintenance on the EMT's and they stopped pulling so proper maintenance also is good to not only trim right but to keep the machines nice and healthy and running good so another reminder to keep up one oiling and maintenance.

Right off hand I can't remember which files are doing this, but I will now be able to keep an eye on the situation and see which ones are causing me problems and take care of it then!!

On all my Melco fonts I took out the factory ties and then add my own every time. THis prevents having 2 tie ins or outs and ensures using ones I know work well. Uncer Trim/Lock I use Tie In and Tie Off, Only when necessary. Tie In Type 3 with Num Stitches 4, Tie Out I use style 5 with Num Stitches 4 and I use a .25" for the trim setting. These trim setting also are used for anything I digitize. Now if you are having problems on designs you had digitized and you can't make adjustments cause they are dst files then your digitizer needs to work with you to find settings that work. I rarely have this problem with digitized designs and the ones I setup I rarely have the pullouts anymore either. The above settings for tie's were given to me from a Melco tech who tested diffent ones and found them to work best for him. This is not the only cause of this problem but this seemed to help my machines quite a bit. If your cutting knife is out of adjustment that could cause it also. Other cause would probably be best for a tech to jump in.

It appears as though the trim isn't completing before the tension on the thread increases causing the thread to pop out of the needle when it finally breaks from the last stitch. Most annoying!

DLCompton@xxxxxxx wrote: Is it coming out after the trim or when it starts to stitch again? If it's the latter, check your inching stitch count (look under Settings, Machine); you may want to increase it (e.g. if on 3, set to 5 or 7; if 5 change to 9).
