made in Kaiserlauten.Adler means eagle. You may find some decals of those, Before you do anything else, turn it upside down and see if it uses a wide cleated belt from the top shaft to under the bed.
Those are very hard to find. Don't know the model.

Bobbins may be hard to find also. How does the belt look?

Your a gem, the belt is there but someone put it together with a safety pin lol and there is also a bobbin.
It actually sits in a timber box,like the old portable singer with dome lid,sadly I don’t have the lid.

it is a weird looking belt. Adler's and Pfaffs used similar ones. The length is vital unlike power belts. If it isn't the proper length. the needle will smack bobbin parts.
