Abstract

During the service of a workstation of a textile machine, a thread, presented to a spool apparatus, is captured by a capture mechanism coordinated with the spool apparatus and conducted to a thread cutting device to be cut through. The thread cutting device is coordinated with a cleaning apparatus, with the help of which the thread cutting device at specified intervals, and/or in dependency of the carrying out of assigned work phases is subjected to cleaning.
