feet, later on, or they might be numbers original to 401s or other
slants. The parts

OTHER 301 ATTACHMENTS and FEET:

There is also a 161226 Tucker for the 301.

This is different from the Automatic Zigzagger in that there are no cams, it simply moves the fabric back and forth to create a simple zigzag.
This list does not claim to be exhaustive. If you have an unusual foot or attachment that is clearly marked for Class 301 machines, please write and tell me about it!
