Juki HZL-F500 Quilt & Pro Sewing Machine

Apart from its 157 stitch patterns with 3 font styles using 10 memory folders and an array of 16 buttonhole types, imitation hand-quilting stitch and scallop elongation function, the F500 Quilt Pro Special by Juki sewing machines is a complete workstation for the quilting enthusiast.

It is fully computerised and designed to make every stitch perfect, its enjoyable to use thanks to the high quality feel the HZL-F500 has. But what is the advantages of a computeried sewing machine? For sure it's well-designed, and each stitch is pre-set to provide the best settings for each one of the 157 stitches. It has a very green footprint with a recycling ratio of about 87%. The modified pulse motor and improved smoother power supply reduce power consumption in standby mode by about 37% and power consumption during basic machine operation has been reduced by about 17%, as compared with the conventional model. A huge amount of thinking has gone into producing this superb sewing machine.

Sew industrial quality buttonholes. Using a unique sensor method, the F500 sews beautiful buttonholes regardless of the type of material and overlapped sections. You can also adjust the width of your buttonhole to accommodate deeper buttons. The sleek design and easy to use features make it a pleasure to work with.

Hands-free Thread Trimming 

Like its sister HZL models, the F500 uses the heel press action on the foot control to trim off both top and bobbin threads, it has the knee lifter, start and stop button that I know many of our customers like to use once they have mastered it.

Threading is quick thanks to the well-thought-out needle threader. Once threaded in the simple 1 to 8 steps (even step 8 is a thread end cutter, it trims the bobbin thread to the correct start-to-sew length, a push-down on the needle threader is all that's required, and the needle is threaded.

Winding thread on to an empty bobbin can be done while operating the machine, it has its own bobbin winding motor and again a cutter to cut off excess thread.

Once the bobbin is full it is inserted into the bobbin holder you guide the thread and follow the arrows, the last guide will cut the thread end off, again to the correct length ready to start sewing. No need to get your scissors out. Clever!

No need to adjust the thread tension, the Juki HZX-F500 will take care of that... Remember, it's a full-power computer sewing machine!

Drop the feed dogs and go!, with a flip of the switch, you can be creating free-motion quilting stitches or free-hand embroidery with ease.

Clever, industrial style knee-lifting lever, the presser foot can be raised and lowered by the knee-lifting lever. Presser foot lift is up to 12 mm when the lever is used to its fullest position.
