3. Setup and Preparation
- Familiarization: Before first use, it is highly recommended to watch any available instructional videos and practice using the tool on an easily accessible window from the inside. This will help you understand its operation and magnetic strength.
- Adjust Magnetic Force: The tool features a 6-gear adjustable magnetic force dial. Rotate the dial to select the appropriate magnetic strength for your window thickness.
- Gear 1: Weakest magnetic force, suitable for thinner single-glazed windows.
- Gear 6: Strongest magnetic force, suitable for thicker double-glazed windows.
- The tool is designed for window thicknesses between 0.2''-1.4'' (5-35mm).

- Attach Safety Rope: Securely attach the 118-inch (3-meter) safety wire rope to the exterior half of the cleaner. Loop the other end of the rope around your wrist or a secure fixture inside the room to prevent the exterior half from falling.
- Prepare Cleaning Solution: Apply your preferred window cleaning solution or water to the sponge pads on both halves of the cleaner. Ensure the pads are adequately moist to facilitate smooth gliding and effective cleaning.
4. Operating Instructions
- Separate the Halves: Use the provided window cleaner opener tool to carefully separate the two magnetic halves. When separated, the magnetic force automatically returns to Gear 1 (weakest) to prevent accidental pinching.
- Position the Cleaner: Place one half of the cleaner on the inside surface of the window and the other half on the corresponding outside surface. The magnets will attract and hold the two halves together through the glass.
- Begin Cleaning: Hold the interior half of the cleaner firmly by its handle. Move the cleaner across the window surface in a consistent pattern (e.g., S-shape or horizontal/vertical strokes). The exterior half will mirror your movements, cleaning the outside simultaneously.
- Ensure Continuous Moisture: The large sponge pads are designed to hold sufficient water. Reapply cleaning solution to the pads as needed to maintain moisture and prevent streaks.
- Corner Cleaning: The triangular design of the cleaner helps reach corners more effectively. Adjust your movements to ensure thorough cleaning of all window areas.
- Finishing: Once cleaning is complete, carefully separate the two halves. The magnetic force will reduce to Gear 1 upon separation.

5. Maintenance
- Cleaning Pads: The sponge cleaning pads are replaceable. When they become worn or excessively dirty, remove them and replace with new ones from the extra sets provided.
- Rubber Blades: The rubber squeegee blades can also be replaced if they show signs of wear or damage, which can affect cleaning performance. Two extra rubber blades are included.
- Tool Cleaning: After each use, rinse the magnetic cleaner tool thoroughly with clean water to remove any residual cleaning solution or dirt. Allow it to air dry completely before storing.
- Storage: Store the two halves of the cleaner separated, ideally with the plastic divider in place, to prevent them from sticking together at full magnetic force and to protect your fingers.

6. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Cleaner halves are difficult to separate. | Magnetic force set too high, or no opener used. | Ensure the magnetic force dial is set to Gear 1 (weakest) before attempting to separate. Use the provided window cleaner opener tool. |
| Cleaner does not stay attached to the window. | Magnetic force set too low for window thickness. | Increase the magnetic force setting using the dial until the cleaner securely attaches to both sides of the window. Refer to the window thickness guidelines in Section 3. |
| Leaves streaks or does not clean effectively. | Sponge pads are dry, dirty, or rubber blades are worn. | Ensure sponge pads are adequately moist with cleaning solution. Replace dirty sponge pads or worn rubber blades. |
| Difficulty maneuvering the cleaner. | Lack of familiarity with the tool. | Practice on an easily accessible window. Watch instructional videos for technique guidance. |
