However, when it arrived, the stitch length dial was not working and I'll need to have it serviced. Being the DIY girl that I am, I wanted to see if I could figure out the problem myself, but I can't for the life of me find a manual for this machine. That's when I found out about "badged" machines from Japan. I was wondering if anyone could help me ID this machine to see what it was modeled after. It's an Emdeko Mark IV...

Handsome retro guy, n'est ce pas?
Looks like 1980s to me. I don't know of any manuals. Your problem with the dial may be dried up oil somewhere in the system. You will need to oil inside the machine. Anyplace that moves will need some oil.
