Even if it's not your model machine, the threading instructions and basic use would be similar.

In the 1960's, Riccar made a heavy duty 777 sewing machine. Riccar made machines into the 1970's. The headquarters appears to have been in Chicago before it moved offshore. Value of the machine? Maybe $100 if it worked. Parts might be found or salvaged from machines used for parts. However, here is a Riccar shop in South Carolina:

I would be doubtful regarding offers of a manual for sale for this online unless at minimum it was attached to a brick and mortar store in business (and even then might query the local Better Business Bureau).

I couldn't find one for your specific model number.
Have a look at a few of the manuals with similar model numbers. Or try to find a manual that most closely resembles your machine.
Usually sewing machines by the same brand are very similar and thread the same way etc.
Hope this helps!
