Post-bed, Bottom-feed Lockstitch Machine
PLH-981
(1-needle)
PLH-982

With JUKI's unique slide thread take-up lever, feed mechanism, and
vertical-axis hook, the machine provides well-tensed, neatly finished
seams every time.
The stitch length can easily be adjusted with the stitch dial.
Reverse-feed stitching is actuated by a simple press of the lever.
The machine incorporates a large pulley that can be turned smoothly
by hand.
The face plate is designed to provide a clear view of the needle entry
area and enable smooth thread feeding.
