Janome CoverPro 2000CPX: finish hems on your handmade garments
The Janome CoverPro 2000CPX makes cover hems and chain stitches. Use it for T-shirt hems, sleeves and other garment finishes. Two or three needles create parallel rows of straight stitching on top, with looper thread covering the underside.
Choose a narrow or wide cover hem, or use one needle for chain stitching. Differential feed, adjustable foot pressure and manual tension controls help you set the finish for your fabric. The free arm gives you easier access to tubular pieces such as sleeves and trouser legs.
Choose from four stitch setups
Use two needles for a 3 mm narrow cover stitch or a 6 mm wide cover stitch. Three needles make a 6 mm triple cover stitch, with three evenly spaced rows across the top. Each setup uses one looper thread underneath.
For chain stitch, use one needle and two threads. This gives you another seam or decorative stitching option. Follow the instruction book for the needle positions, threading and settings for each stitch.
Fine-tune the seam for your fabric
Tension Lever Control (TLC) lets you soften the looper tension when changing between heavier and lighter fabrics. The machine also includes Janome’s Seam Tightening System (STS). Use the manual’s recommended settings as a starting point, then test the finish on your project fabric.
Differential feed adjusts from 0.5 to 2.25. It helps control stretched or puckered edges. Stitch length adjusts from 1 to 4 mm, and the presser-foot pressure can be adjusted for the fabric you are sewing.
Reach sleeves, cuffs and larger pieces
Slide off the detachable sewing table to expose the free arm. It helps you work around sleeves, cuffs and other tubular sections. The workspace to the right of the needle measures 143 mm wide by 100 mm high.
The LED light illuminates the sewing area. A carry handle helps with moving the 8.6 kg machine, and a soft dust cover protects it between projects.
Follow the guides for threading
The colour-coded paths and quick reference chart guide you through threading. Open the looper area for access, thread the looper in its released position and return it to the sewing position as directed in the manual.
Lift the presser foot to release the thread tensions. A handheld needle threader is included. Use ELx705 needles, set the required tensions and sew a sample before starting your garment. The foot control operates the machine at speeds up to 1,000 stitches per minute.

Frequently asked questions
What can I sew with the CoverPro 2000CPX?
Use it for cover hems on T-shirts, sleeves and other garments, or for chain stitching. Its feed and tension controls help you adjust the finish for different fabrics. Test the stitch on a sample with the same fabric and layers as your project.
Does it replace an overlocker?
No. It makes coverstitch and chain stitch without trimming the fabric edge. An overlocker joins and finishes raw edges with overlocking stitches. The two machines serve different purposes and work well alongside a regular sewing machine.
Does it make a top cover stitch?
No. The 2000CPX makes parallel straight stitches on top and a looper finish underneath. If you want a decorative thread covering the top as well, ask our team about a machine with a top cover stitch function.
What helps when sewing stretchy fabric?
Adjust the differential feed to help the fabric lie flat. Use the recommended needles, threading and tension settings, then test the seam. Avoid pulling the fabric as it feeds through the machine.
How does the 2000CPX differ from the 1000CPX?
Both offer chain stitch, narrow and wide double cover stitch, and triple cover stitch. The 2000CPX adds Tension Lever Control for adjusting looper tension between fabric types. Ask our friendly team to help you compare the models and packages available.
Are a binder and extension table included?
No. They are optional accessories sold separately. The standard package includes the fitted foot, threading tools, needles, attachment screws, accessory box, foot control, instruction book and soft dust cover listed above.
Where can I find the machine details and threading instructions?
Read Janome’s CoverPro 2000CPX brochure. The supplied instruction book covers threading, stitch setup and care. Follow its needle positions and threading sequence for the stitch you choose.
