Default Re: Vintage sewing machine suppressor help!

Thank you for your response.
Last time I used the foot it worked on the 99k, however I have not used it since a new wall plug was added to it.
This is something I can double check in the morning, no worries.
If suppression happens in the foot for the 99k, could this likely work for the 401 too? Or could it be possible that the modern day foot has caused this to blow?
Is it likely I am risking anything (safety wise) by using a modern day foot on the 99k? The machine had terrible control with a knee bar. I have an RCD in use also. I have used a modern day foot on an old Packard machine with no issues as of yet, however it is still early days.
I will see if I can find someone locally that deals with repairing vintage machines and see what they might say on the subject too.
Thank you
