I have the same Juki and I use a Grace sure stitch regulator on it. I've never used the foot pedal. This would be your besr option as the regulator can be mounted wherever you need it to be. Once turned on you have to push the button to stop.

Until recently I could put the pedal on the ground and quilt my layers to my satisfaction, but now I can't even do that. Does anyone know if there is an inexpensive aid to help me? Or, if there is anyone out there able to quilt in a different way without the use of your feet?
