Hello Mel,
Thread the top of the machine up as usual all the way to through needle, make sure the presser foot is up,
select straight stitch, open the slide plate, push the little catch to the right so it raises the winder, take the thread from the needle and wind it round the screw that holds the presser foot on a few times, press on the foot control slowly and wind the bobbin
and don't go past the last red mark or mark on the bobbin.
When it is full close the slide plate to drop the winder down, pull the thread to the back of the machine and you are ready to sew.
