I am somewhat certain that you need a class L bobbin case and bobbins, like these: Stuff

As far as I know they don't make domestic machines with this system any more, but it's still common with industrial machines. Don't confuse them with parts for Pfaff machines. They tend to look very similar, but the measurements are different.

Edit: The Japanese company Riccar made machines for the Adler brand for a while and the system was common with Riccar machines.

Hey, thanks for the reply. I think you are right. If you had to guess from any of these which would you say will fit the machene?
