Could you explain what you mean by bypassing the three hole bar and use the first one? I can't figure out what you are referring to.
TIA,

On the 1500s Brother, there is a little metal "bar" in the path of where you thread the machine, located at the top front of the machine, there are three holes located in a row on the bar, you can run your thread through as many holes and around the side of the bar as you need to help adjust the tension. I have tried the thread cutter and quite often it causes the bobbin thread to disappear down in the machine and I have to fuss with pulling it out again.
