Treadle operated machines are 100% human powered. Machine does not require power to run and cannot be converted to electric. A treadle operated sewing table (not included) is required to run this machine.
Like the foot-operated machines of yesteryear, Janome has brought the best of treadle and electric machines together in the impressive, fun, and easy-to-use Janome 712T. Useful for sewists living off the grid or just those who enjoy a true DIY sewing experience, the 712T offers some modern features in a more traditional type of machine.
Economically priced, the Janome 712T is a sturdy foot-powered machine that operates when installed in a treadle operated sewing table which is not included. It has an aluminum die-cast frame. With its flatbed design, this compact machine can be easily inserted into existing cabinetry for comfortable use.
The Janome 712T offers 10 standard built-in stitches plus one 4-step buttonhole stitch to cover all the necessary basics for simple, yet quality sewing. It includes adjustable stitch width and length, easy stitch selector dials, and makes clean, quality stitches. It will easily sew through thick fabric or multiple layers.
Other features of the 712T include a 5-piece feed dog with drop feed capability, snap-on presser feet, extra-high presser foot lift, a top-loading full rotary hook bobbin, and a simple push-pull bobbin winder. It functions the same as any other basic electric model.
The machine comes with universal, hemmer, blind hem, overedge, zipper, and zigzag feet, a sliding buttonhole foot, a specialized bobbin for this machine, and more. The included bonus bundle adds a ¼” seam foot for quilting, a supply of Janome bobbins and size 14 needles.
The standard warranty that applies to the 712T is 25 years on mechanical parts, 5 years on electrical parts, and 1 year on labor.

Lots of fun great exercise!
You must have a treadle cabinet, I wish new ones were available. I only had to bend one tab on the cabinet I had to install. Should include instructions on properly tensioning the belt, we of a middle age and younger generation have no clue. I am on my third attempt to get it right, however the belt is tight enough to use, just not ideal. Machine has a great stitch. If you have never done it a treadle machine sews more slowly than most electric machines and will wear you out filling the large bobbin, however it is great exercise. My only negative is that I can not adjust the needle to the right of center for a quarter inch stitch, so I am glad the quarter inch foot was included in the bonus package. Overall a great machine that I love sewing on!

It works great.
I built my own Treadle sewing machine. Bought a Treadle sewing machine at auction. Replaced the machine head with the Janome 712T. Sewed patches on 4 different Motorcycle vests. It works great.
