JANOME 603DC

Horizontal rotary hook

The hook rotates in a full circle rather than oscillating, so the machine does not vibrate even at high speed and runs much more quietly. Through the clear window you can always see how much thread is left on the bobbin, and threading the hook is simple.

SFS+ fabric feed

Wide, closely spaced feed dogs (SFS+ system) feed many types of fabric well.

Walking foot and presser foot pressure adjustment

The walking foot (top feed) is included as standard. It is useful when sewing fabrics that are harder to handle – the layers do not shift against each other.

Presser foot pressure can be adjusted in 6 steps.

Automatic buttonholes

7 types of buttonhole. Place the button in the special buttonhole foot and the machine sews as many buttonholes of the same size as you need.

Lock stitch button

Press this button while sewing a pattern and the machine continues until the pattern is complete.

LCD display, needle position and speed control

The display shows the current operation, stitch length and width (the machine sets them automatically for each operation) and the recommended presser foot.

The needle position button stops the needle up or down without turning the handwheel. The speed slider on the body limits the maximum speed regardless of the foot pedal – handy for careful work or thick items.

Accessory compartment in the removable platform

The removable free arm platform has a handy compartment for storing presser feet and accessories. A generous set of standard accessories is included.

Long free arm

The extra-long free arm makes it easy to sew sleeves and carry out complex operations in hard-to-reach places.

START/STOP button

You can sew without the foot pedal. A foot pedal is also included as standard.

Needle threader

The threading mechanism helps you thread the needle quickly and easily.
