**<span class="search_hit">Tumbler</span>**

<div class="level3" id="bkmrk-do-not-store-the-tum">- <div class="li">Do not store the <span class="search_hit">tumbler</span> canister on the <span class="search_hit">tumbler</span>. This causes the steel burnishing shot to become highly magnetized and not work as well. Please store it on the table!</div>
- <div class="li">Always store the canister with the lid on and shot fully immersed, otherwise the steel shot will rust.</div>

</div>It rotates in one direction for about 15 minutes, and then automatically rotates to the opposite direction for 15 minutes. We suggest a two-way rotation, which is more efficient.

After selecting the direction you want, press the button in the center, then <span class="search_hit">tumbler</span> started to work.

You can choose a specific time by turning the time control button.

Tum <span class="search_hit">Tumbler</span> has self-protection function. When it works for a long time, it will stop and rest. When the motor is cooled down, it will continue to work.

**Pickle Pot**

<div class="level3" id="bkmrk-only-use-copper-tong">- <div class="li">Only use copper tongs in pickle solution, never steel!</div>
- <div class="li">Neutralize pickle solution in the sink by pouring it into a bowl of 1/4 baking soda and 3/4 water mixture.</div>
- <div class="li">Unplug before leaving the studio!</div>
- <div class="li">Silver work should not be used in a pickle pot where copper/bronze/brass work is pickled, otherwise it will become copper plated. Neutralize and make fresh pickle if this is the case.</div>

</div>**Buffs** Buffs should not be gummed up with polishing compound! Use compound sparingly so the buffs stay fluffy.
