If your machine is like the first photo Janey linked to, then yes it's a Japanese 15 class clone. So let me first apologize to you for the answer I posted on the Yahoo Vintage Japanese group. I had skimmed this thread and only saw the pics Macybaby posted. The manual Janey linked to, or several at the yahoo group, will work for your machine.
A vs machine has a long bobbin "vibrating shuttle".
Most all of the knee lever controllers are just a foot controller placed up inside the cabinet with an extra "arm" on the controller to push with your knee. So the wiring is the same as a normal foot controller.
