Cool Will my buttonholer work on a FW?

I got a Singer buttonholer a couple of years ago at an auction and am wondering if it will work on my featherweight. It's a No. 160506... the one in the green case. I haven't used it yet because I don't want to do something wrong but there is a book with it (copyright 1948) and it looks like a short straight shank. I remember using a buttonholer like this years ago and that one worked great. Have any of you used this model on a FW? Any suggestions on its use? .... things I need to know but don't remember after all these years.

I need to put a couple of buttonholes in the birthday dress I'm making for my great granddaughter and I only brought the FW to the cabin this year. If this doesn't work I'll need to figure out a plan #2.

Thanks all.
