Default PROBLEMS with new to me Elna supermatic

Happy New Years greeting to all you great board members...hope you have some advice to help me.
I have a vintage Elna Supermatic that I'm trying to get up and running....absolutely no experience with these machines, but it was my mom's and my sister has asked if it is fixable. It was in a pretty ugly state when I got it...see before and after pictures...my issue is that it "growls" when sewing and seems loud to me. I have no idea what is normal for this machine...I think it is a model 722010?? Have no idea what year it is or where to look on it for this info. She gave me no cams for it, and I'm not sure she has them, but that's to fix later. Has been oiled as much as I can, but don't know if the "inside" is something I should try to get too. AND does anyone know where to get a downloadable free manual???
Thanks for your assistance....
