You have to take out the plate that the belt goes through and helps support the machine when you raise and lower it into the treadle. I will have to make another plate for my bench to use it in my treadle but it will work beautifully. :D
I removed all of the cords, pedal, the motor but kept the light so if I decide to put a cord on it I can and have a light on my machine. But I know I can not live with the blah grey color it is so I am going to paint it a Candy Brandywine ;)

Glad you are having fun with your 328. I like your idea of painting the ugly grey to a prettier color. You took the motor out?! Wow, that seems like too much work, at least for me it would be. Have fun treadling!
