Your machine looks a great deal like the Singer I learned to sew on which I think was purchased sometime in the 1940s
It was a great machine. Wish I still had it, but I wasn't smart enough to salvage it from the remains of our house that burned.

If that proves to be of little help I will probably have to find someone who speaks and reads German to help me.
Fortunately, the German Air Force has a small base here at Holloman. My husband teaches out there and often has German students.....(hmmmm, now the old cogs are turnin'!)
