Operating Instructions

Follow these steps to operate your VEVOR Magnetic Tumbler for optimal polishing results.

1. Prepare Items: Clean items to be polished to remove any heavy dirt or grease.
2. Add Media: Place the magnetic pins into the polishing barrel. The quantity of pins should be appropriate for the items being polished, typically covering the bottom of the barrel.
3. Add Solution: Add a small amount of water and a suitable polishing compound or solution to the barrel. The water level should just cover the items and pins.
4. Load Items: Carefully place the items to be polished into the barrel with the magnetic pins and solution. Do not exceed the maximum capacity of 1.76 lbs (800 g).
5. Secure Barrel: Ensure the barrel lid is securely closed and the barrel is properly seated on the machine.
6. Select Rotation Mode:
   • One-Way Rotation: For continuous rotation in a single direction.
   • Two-Way Rotation: For alternating rotation (e.g., 5 minutes forward, 10 seconds stop, 5 minutes reverse). This mode is often preferred for more thorough and even polishing.
7. Set Timer: Rotate the timer knob to set the desired polishing time (0-60 minutes). For initial use, start with a shorter time (e.g., 15-30 minutes) and adjust as needed.
8. Start Operation: Flip the power switch to the "ON" position. The indicator light will illuminate, and the tumbler will begin operation.
9. Monitor Progress: Periodically check the polishing progress. If necessary, stop the machine by flipping the power switch to "OFF" to inspect items.
10. Completion: Once the timer reaches zero, the machine will automatically stop. If you need to stop it manually, turn the power switch to "OFF".
11. Unload Items: Carefully remove the barrel from the machine. Pour out the solution, pins, and polished items into a sieve or container to separate them. Rinse the polished items thoroughly with clean water.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your magnetic tumbler.

• Cleaning the Barrel: After each use, rinse the polishing barrel thoroughly with clean water to remove any residue from the polishing compound and debris. Ensure it is completely dry before storage.
• Cleaning Magnetic Pins: The magnetic pins should also be rinsed and dried after each use. Store them in a dry place to prevent corrosion.
• Cleaning the Main Unit: Wipe the exterior of the main unit with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or immerse the unit in water. Ensure no liquid enters the control panel or ventilation openings.
• Fuse Replacement: If the machine fails to power on, check the fuses. The unit comes with two spare 0.5A fuses. To replace, unplug the machine, locate the fuse holder (usually at the back or side), and carefully replace the old fuse with a new one.
• Storage: When not in use for extended periods, store the magnetic tumbler in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture.
