Stadler Report post Posted February 19, 2015 Hello. I am hoping someone can help me. I have a Juki 562 or 563. (Not sure) there are no tags attached. But it does not have a reverse bar. Is there any way to reverse stitch without it? Thanks for your time in advance Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ENC Report post Posted February 19, 2015 Could have been set up to have a reverse peddle. Is there a shaft coming out the side under the hand crank wheel? Or underneath... maybe an arm with a hole that could have had a chain attached? Ray Picts. might help. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stadler Report post Posted February 19, 2015 Hi Ray, Thanks for the response. I will post pics when I get home tonight. Yes there is a hole where it should be. Not certain about the rest you mentioned. Hopefully the pics you need will assist. If it were set up for one, is there a way to add the lever? Thanks again Stan Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ENC Report post Posted February 20, 2015 This is a different type of machine but its is the same idea. The smaller pedal is attached by a chain to lift the presser foot or stop one of the needle stops in a double needle machine, so you can turn a corner. The same set up can be used to pull the reverse. I had this type of set up on my gathering machine. Unfortunately I laid the head back without disconnecting the chain first and broke the pedal in half. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
