I solved the thread cutter use unthreading the needle by not threading the three hole bar at the top of the machine. I use the second hole as a thread guide. When I did take it in to get the reverse lever repaired, the guy adjusted the thread cutter to leave a longer tail. Said it was easy to do. Do not use a bobbin with holes in the rim. I jammed my Brother twice with a loud grinding noice before I found out not use other bobbins because they were the same size. Use the no hole rim ones that came with the machine. The holes in the bobbin really does a number when the thread cutter happens to find the opening. A Juki tech told me about the bobbins. I haven't had it jam up again. I have since bought a Juki, love the Brother and Juki.
