Low shank: I was just wondering what a low shank machine is?

Hi Donna, Low shank simply means the shank (distance from the bottom of the sewing foot to the screw) is short. Most modern machines are low shank, while some older (pre-1980) and industrial machines are high shank. These machines have a longer distance from the screw to the sewing foot. Hope this helps!

This machine takes low shank feet. Kind of a click and play. I'm in Mexico am In Mexico and I plug into 110 and it runs. Great.

do not deal with PrecisionSewing...get the foot from Janome for your particular machine. The foot I got was for a short shank and is of no use to me.

I'm not sure about this model but mine is a brother 3125. I just took the chance because it says it fits low shanks and the foot is lovely. Works for what I need. I was lucky it fit and glad I took the chance.

I believe Kenmore's are a "low" shank machine so you should look for a low shank foot. I know that isn't a complete answer but you can find this information on the web.

Yor manual should tell you. You could also search the Internet with the model number. Most machines are low shank.

If that machine has a short shank, which I believe it does, the feet and attachments should work nicely.

It is a low shank, snap on foot. Check you machine manual. Hope this helps.

There's a black lever on the side, that moves a metal guide up/down, which is probably your lowest setting. Anything bigger would require one of the attachments, and they're all labeled.

There is a hand crank on the front of the machine. I don't mean to be smart-assed or anything, so please do not take offense, if you have to ask how to raise and lower the blade, you really should read the instructions and thoroughly familiarize yourself with this machine because it could do some serious bodily harm if you don't use it properly. Please read the instructions until you "understand" what you're doing. Make sure you use the riving knife to help prevent kickback (VERY DANGEROUS CONDITION).

It fits any low shank machine. You need to determine if your machine is low shank, high shank or slant shank. It is a well made piece and works well on most of my machines.

I do not have that machine, so I cannot say. However, you should be able to google it and find out if your model fits the shank requirements. Hope this helps.

I'm not sure what you're referring to. I love these mills, and they're very sturdily built. I would definitely buy them again.

I don't know about the machine, but I know it will fit on my short shank machine.

I'm sorry I have no idea whether that will fit or not. My suggestion would be to find out if your machine is high shank or low shank, then determine if the foot is high or low shank. Match low to low and high to high and you should be fine. That seems to be the deciding factor. Good luck.

yes, I believe brother is compatible to the low shank hook-up. Good luck and enjoy.
