I have a twin of your machine [juki tl98q] on my frame. many people either use a stitch regulator or handles [Handi Handles come to mind, but i don't think they're made any longer] with a speed regulator on them. if you don't have one of these, then you will need to use your foot pedal to make the machine run. some setups have a device on the machine platform to push the pedal, some folks use their hands to push the pedal on the platform. the foot pedal does not sit on the floor. i suppose you could do that, but it would limit how far you can move the machine along the frame.
