Actually it's teal, white, and chrome, not pink. I found pictures of basically identical looking ones with Belair and Modernage name tags online, but I still wasn't able to find any specific info like a manual or anything.
Also, I was able to get it working; the nob was just stuck because of the old grease and loose springs but idk if the foot is supposed to move for the zigzag stitches or what because it only works with the zigzag set to zero. It definitely needs a thorough clean and re-grease, but it's surprisingly clean tbh, just a little dusty.
I'm using my phone right now, so I don't think it will let me post a picture, but I'll try on my computer when I get a chance. Here's a link to a picture of the Belair one that looks identical (hopefully it will work):

The machine will need a good cleaning and oiling. Sometimes that is all that is needed. It is possible that the machine has the wrong foot on it. How is the knob malfunctioning?
