I think the "press thing on the side" that you are talking about is a knee control. In some ways they are easier than a foot pedal.....you don't have to keep hunting for it with your foot. Just lean your leg sideways.

My 128 has a Bentwood case and has a knee bar that is stored in the case when not in use. You attach it into a hole on the front of the machine and press your knee against it to operate the machine. Is this what yours is like?
This one doesn't have a pedal and it's listed as a 128. Could there be 2 different types of the 128? Or does yours have the lil thing on the side that makes it go instead of the foot pedal too? I'm new to all of this. I just put in the serial # and that's what it shows. Looking it up on the website it's inbetween the numbers and that's what is listed.

The pedal is probably mounted inside of the cabinet and the side bar presses against it to make it go. I have a 15-99 like that in cabinet and I really like it. Are you a lucky girl or what with all those machines? LOL
