Best Answer

Yes, you can take them out of the cabinet by loosening two grub screws that hold the machine on two posts. If the machine has a foot control, you are all ready to use it as a table top model. You can also put it in a Kenmore carrying case. Kenmores are a different size than other machines, so they have to go in a Kenmore carrying case or cabinet. If the machine has a knee control and not a foot control, you would need to buy a foot control to fit it. They are available on many websites and ebay.

We own a Kenmore Model 48 sewing machine which we purchased new from Sears in 1964. Hope this helps. ******************************************** September 30, 2009 My Grandma got her Kenmore 48 for her 20th wedding anniversary in 1961. The owners manual (I have inherited the machine) is dated 1960. For a machine that is almost 50 years old it runs incrediably well. It came new, mounted in a decorative cabinet and even that has withstood the test of time and dozens of kids!! What a great investment my Grandpa made!!! It would be between 1959-62
