A Machine With No Manuals.

I got a Bernina machine at an auction and can not get it to start. It is in a cabinet so does it need a foot pedal or does the leg lever inside the cabinet do the job. I think I plugged it in right but there seems to be no response when you touch the leg lever. Is there an off and on button somewhere that should be turned on first?
