Same as any camera. You KNOW it's loaded because the rewind crank will spin 
when you wind. As for actually loading it, LESS IS MORE. Don't try to do 
anything extra. Just drop the film in, place the leader in the claw (DON'T 
wind yet!), replace the bottom and NOW WIND. Again, just watch the rewind 
crank. It should spin within a couple of frames.
