Default World Rotary Restoration

My DH just picked up my first vintage treadle, a World's Rotary. The serial number is FR 7030586. The guy he got it from says its from 1912. It has been sitting in his shed for about three years, but before that it was very well kept. We are planing to restore it this year. How to you suggest getting the rust off and what's the best type of grease to use? It needs a new belt. It came with at least eight bobbins and an instructions manual, plus many attachments, some of which I don't think even belong to this machine. I'm very excited but almost nervous about restoring it! I've never restored any machines before. I would love any suggestions!
