Operating Instructions
Kinetic Movement
The windmill spinner is designed to rotate with the wind. Ensure it is placed in an open area where it can catch breezes from various directions. The dual rotors are engineered to spin independently, creating a dynamic visual effect.
Solar LED Light Operation
The integrated LED light is solar-powered. During daylight hours, the solar panel located on the spinner head will charge the internal battery. At dusk, the light will automatically turn on, illuminating the spinner. Ensure the solar panel is clean and receives ample direct sunlight for optimal charging.

Maintenance
- Cleaning: Wipe the spinner with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and dirt. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the finish or solar panel.
- Solar Panel Care: Regularly clean the solar panel to ensure maximum light absorption and efficient charging.
- Stability Check: Periodically check the ground stake and pole connections to ensure they remain secure, especially after strong winds or heavy rain.
- Winter Storage: In areas with harsh winter conditions, it is recommended to store the spinner indoors to protect it from extreme cold and snow, which can affect its longevity.
Troubleshooting
