The present invention comprises an air cylinder which is driven by compressed air. When sewing with a spreader thread, the air cylinder drives a movable catcher and a fixed cutter to cut off a spreader thread, which is then clamped by a spring plate to facilitate the next sewing operation. When sewing without a spreader thread, compressed air is used through an air passage to blow the free end of the needle thread cut off by an under trimming mechanism away from the underside of the presser foot after the presser foot is lifted at the end of a sewing operation to facilitate the next sewing operation. The air cylinder in the present invention may also be replaced by an electromagnetic relay, which, when powered up, stretches and retracts the central shaft to drive a movable catcher and a fixed cutter and thereby cut off the spreader thread.
