I have a small Brother machine and I bought the foot separately so there's no info in the manual.
Thanks.
I have used my walking foot for all kinds of stiches. I have never had a problem. The store where I purchased my machine said I shouldn't do it, but I do! It turns out great; even the zig zag stich. I have a Baby Lock Allure. Maybe it is the machine. I do recommend that you try the stitch first to make sure it does not hit anywhere.
