1. Load your thread from the spool, all the way through the machine, threading the needle, then through the guide in the presser foot (it's a small slit on the left side of the presser foot), and then wind the thread snugly around the screw above and to the left of the presser foot holder (chuck).
2. Insert your empty bobbin in the bobbin case in the base of the machine. The bobbin case is under a little sliding door with a clear window below the needle. Slide the door towards you to open it.
*N.B., your machine uses special bobbins, that have a cone-shaped metal piece on the top. That little metal cone should be on the top side.
3. The little door has a triangular marker arrow on the left. Match it up with the arrow on the machine (the door will be slightly open). *This is a tricky thing, and may take you a couple of tries to get the arrows aligned correctly. (see below)**
4. Use your foot pedal to make the machine run. (The needle will be moving up and down, so don't worry).
5. Check in your little window on the sliding door to see if the thread is winding on the bobbin. **If not, you do not have the arrows matched up correctly, so try moving the door a little bit in or out, and try again. Make sure you remove any thread from the inside of the bobbin case AND the bobbin before trying again.
