Frister + Rossmann 45 repairs?

Hi. I have inherited this machine from my Mother. Unfortunately, although the machine's motor functions, I cannot get the needle assembly to operate. Is there maybe a sort of clutch assembly that needs to engage for this to happen?

On the right hand side where the balance wheel is there is a smaller wheel called a stop motion, turn the wheel so it is fairly tight clockwise and this should engage the topshaft to move the needle

This might help.

There's probably other sources as well,. Plus sewing machine forums and the like.
