Sukie,

That's the same pasta machine that I have. They're all about the same.
Don't be nervous about making pasta.
The most you'll invest is 3 or 4 cups of pasta and a few eggs.
At the worst, you can throw the dough out and start again (but that worst will not happen)
There are only 2 (and an occasional 3rd) ingredients in pasta dough.
Flour (all-purpose) and eggs (large) and an occasional few drops of water.
You can mix it on the board (as shown on the website you posted) or in a mixing bowl, a food processor or a stand mixer.
I strongly suggest a food processor because in this machine, it happens fast and you can see it happening and make adjustments (water) if needed.
If you want detailed instructions, let me know.
But don't be nervous!
