Default help!!!!! Automatic thread cutter

I bought a Janome 8900 last August. I used this machine very little due to physical illness. I started to piece together a table topper last week. I saw that when I use the automatic thread cutter and start a new seam the thread is catching in the new seam. This is causing problem with the seam lying straight due the bunch of thread in the seam line. I went to the dealer and showed some sample of what it was doing. It is worse when I am using the 1/4 inch seam. The machine in the store also did this but not as bad as mine. I want to know if anybody else has this problem with the automatic thread cutter. I was told to not use the thread cutter if it was causing me problems.. Well one of the reason I BOUGHT THIS MACHINE WAS FOR THE CUTTER. I tried to take a picture but couldn't get a good shot.
