    SVAL,

    All FWs are low shank machines, so the low shank rufflers should work. Some of the ones I have sit a bit crooked so it might look tilted. But if it is tilted for sure and not bent then it's for a slant shank machine.

    You may want to try reducing the picture size to something like 640x480 or so.
    Most modern digital cameras (and phones) produce pictures that are larger than the site allows.

    Just make sure the presser foot shaft is all the way down and then give it another go.

    Just for the fun of it I took a pic with three rufflers lined up so you can see the difference in the mounting brackets.

    Joe, my ruffles that came with my new to me Whaite Rotary has a different kind of mounting bracket. What do they call this type of mounting bracket?
