Janome Memory Craft 6500 walking/even feed foot help
Hi everyone! I'm brand new to this site but came for help.
I'm trying to attach my walking foot to my Jamone Memory craft 6500 and it seems that the screw/hole on the presser bar doesn't line up with the middle of the walking foot "U" shaped attachment area. I can't move the foot any lower and it just doesn't line up.
Has anyone else had this issue? If so, how did you resolve it?
( I had tried to attach a photo but it keeps uploading upside down.)

welcome to the board. sorry, can't help with your foot. if you are viewing your picture on a phone or other device that automatically turns your pic right side up, it won't load that way here. either the picture has to be taken with your camera right side up, or you have to edit the picture to the upright position.

Oh! is it the correct foot for your machine? If so, something else is wrong. Have you tried looking on Janome site for your machine. It may show pics of this, i would hope. I have a janome MC4800 and mine fits, has a bar that moves up and down that go onto the screw.

Good luck.

The Janome is a low shank machine and it looks as though your attachment is for a high shank. My Janome book has several walking foot attachments that are marked "excluding MC6500P" so check the Janome website for the correct attachment product number. My walking foot is specifically labelled for low shank and is part no. 214-874-024 but I don't know if this number would be relevant to you as it is about 10 years old and purchased in Australia.
I have never had any issues getting my walking foot on, it is a little bit of a fiddle, but easily done.
