How to thread singer sewing machine 5810
First, raise the needle (and the thread-take up lever) with the hand wheel; always turn this wheel towards you. If the needle doesn't go up, your machine may be in bobbin winding mode. Press the hand wheel disc on the side opposite the indent. Raise the pressure foot using the lifter behind the needle and pressure foot.
Now place the spool on the spool pin and add the spool pin cap. Now you work the thread from right to left and go down, up and down again. Lead the thread to the thread guide at the back of the machine and snap the thread into the guide. Bring the thread forward and with one hand bring the thread under the guide and through the slot. Bring the thread down and around the tension. Hold the spool lightly and pull up the thread to lift the spring. That will let the thread go under the thread guard. Guide the thread into the take-up lever by placing the thread over the top of the lever and sliding it up into the notch. Bring the thread down through the next two thread guides; the last one is at the needle clamp. Then thread the needle from front to back.
Most Singer manuals are available here:

I hope this helps. Earlier pages in the manual cover winding and inserting the bobbin.
