I wonder if either the 319 or 306 could be treadled? Do they have a slide plate to change the bobbin or does the head have to be tipped back?
Thank you,

The head has to be tipped back; one of the drawbacks to this model. I know for sure a 206 can be treadled, and believe a 306/319 can as well. I think some of the TO people are doing so.
I'm still researching and looking for a machine to put in treadle that uses the 15x1 needles and does some decorative stitches.
