MACHINE FEET GUIDE
The first question to answer is how old is your machine? Most machines made since 1980 use snap-on feet (Except
Berninas, which have their own style of attaching, and therefore need an adaptor).
Does your machine's foot screw on or snap on? If it doesn't use a screw to attach, then it's a snap-on.
If it screws on it is important to know whether your machine is a low-shank, high-shank, or slant needle machine.
If you are not certain, you can measure using the simple instructions below:
To Measure:
When the presser foot is down, measure the distance from the bottom of the foot to the screw-hole that holds the foot onto the
presser bar.
Singer slant is for slant needle machines only.
A high shank machine measures approximately 1 1/4" from the screw to the bottom of the foot.
A low shank machine measures approximately 3/4" from the screw (small dot in picture above) to the bottom of the
foot.
TIPS
1.) Most machines made since 1980 use snap-on feet. (Except Berninas that have their own style of attaching, and
therefore need an adaptor).
2.) If the foot is not screwed on, it is a snap-on.
3.) All Viking machines are snap-on. Viking (Huskvarna) and Pfaff are European-made.
4.) Most Japanese machines are snap-on (Brother).
5.) All Berninas need Low Shank Adaptor and use generic low-shank feet.
6.) Singer Slant IS FOR SINGER SLANT MACHINES only. (All other Singers have snap-on or screw-on feet.)
7.) All Featherweights use low-shank feet. They are center needle position machines.
8.) For super high-bar lever-style Kenmore, use a High-bar adaptor.
9.) If you are still unsure if this foot fits your sewing machine, then please do more research before purchasing.
