I was told that the walking foot is built in, but not sure what to look for on a machine that was given to me and has no instruction manual

Pfaff Hobby 380--

I cannot find any information on the internet about your machine.

Are you thinking your machine has dual feed not really a built-in walking foot?

I did find this web site where it lists a walking foot for models without dual feed:
http://www.thecolorfulworldofsewing.com/Pfaff-Walking-Foot-for-Models-Without-Dual-Feed-IDT.html

If you go to this page and scroll to the bottom, you can call them with specific questions about your machine: http://www.thecolorfulworldofsewing.com/Pfaff-Presser-Feet/

You can probably also ask them about getting a manual for your machine.

OR

Here are some manuals you can download (all for a fee):

The 380 manual is not available but the 350 or 382 are probably similar for basic information: http://s2.vsmgroup.com/VSM/Pfaff/pfaffmanual.nsf
