Frequently Asked Questions

What is included in the Janome HP Plate and Foot Set?

This set includes two items: the Professional Grade Presser Foot HP and the Professional Grade Needle Plate HP. They are designed to be used together as a matched pair for compatible Janome Continental series machines.

Which Janome machines is this HP Plate and Foot Set compatible with?

This set is compatible with the Janome Continental M6, Continental M7 Professional, Continental M8 Professional, Continental M17, and the M7 Quilter's Collector Series. It is designed for Janome's 9mm stitch-width Continental platform machines.

How does the sensor technology on the HP needle plate work?

The HP needle plate contains a sensor on its underside. When you attach the plate to your compatible Continental series machine, the machine automatically detects it and updates the stitch display to show only the stitches that are safe and compatible with the HP foot. This removes guesswork and helps prevent accidental needle strikes.

Why is the needle position fixed at 0.5 when the HP plate is in use?

Fixing the needle position at 0.5 is a safety feature built into the HP system. Because the HP needle plate has a narrower needle opening designed for the slim HP foot, locking the needle position ensures it always enters the plate at the correct location, preventing damage to the foot, plate, or needle.
