Thread Cutter

The thread cutter serves two purposes:
1. Cut the thread after threading the needle
2. Cut the thread after finishing a seam.
• To cut the thread after completing your work raise the
presser foot.
• Remove the fabric, draw the threads to the left side of
the face cover and cut using the thread cutter.
• The threads are cut at the proper length to start the
next seam.
