Janome Category C

This category is for the different 'high shank' models where the feet are much taller than usual for strength. Usually models are large quilting machines and are likely to be called 'Memory Craft' or 'Horizon' 
These machines are also usually top loading bobbins but have a higher shank.
Here we can see the difference between the Category B and C machines, On the left we have the usual shank relating to all category A and B machines where the screw is lower down.
We then have the category C foot on the right, a much taller and broader shank with the screw hole being much higher up.

Category C will fit these machines - Atelier 3, MC11000, MC10001, MC10000, MC9700, MC9500, MC9000, MC7700QCP, MC6600P

 Fitting A Janome Even Feed/Walking Foot

This is a very simple task, we often get told by customers they don't use it because they can't fit it; well lets solve this problem.. Now!

Rules,

  • As above get the correct foot for your machine and not a cheap one off eBay etc.
  • Unscrew & Remove your Shank/leg (the bit that attaches your janome presser feet)
  • make sure the arm that makes the foot moves is above your needle bar (the screw that you fasten in your needle)
  • Screw on the walking foot using the same screw you undid before.
  • Start to Quilt ....
