Hi Andreas
I'm not gonna be much help, but here is an older discussion about that machine:
Need an owners manual for a Dial 'n Sew Mdl 516 or similar

Maybe one of them found a manual and can help

Also, Victorian Sweatshop is a good resource - this forum is all about vintage machines and vintage enthusiasts (not all old people) - maybe someone there can help?

welcome!

Welcome to the forum from Texas.

The only thing I could find was an instruction manual for a Dial N Sew Centennial Model. Don't know if that is what you have but you might find some info here that will help you. It's a free download & you can also flip through the pages on the site. Generally, it's the bobbin that is underneath & it needs to be filled with thread before you can start to sew.

maybe this will help?
not sure if it's close enough to your machine or not, but you can flip through the pages & find threading instructions & bobbin filling & installation
