Riccar made some of the very best sewing machines ever. I cried when my trusty Riccar died and still can find no replacement for her on Ebay or any of the online places. Paid $800 in 1974 and she even had 32 stitches built in. Doubt you will find a manual, but since its a Clone you can get one of those manuals easy. Good Luck with your Riccar!
