6. The beam makes two moves that clears the top thread (now called the tail) out
of the material.
7. At approximately the same time the threads are being cut and the beam is
moving to clear the tail, the grabber reaches out from behind the needle area
and "grabs" the tail, pulling it up and back into the Velcro wiper strip.
8. When the trim is complete the peripheral begins embroidering again
automatically.
