Fill the Sorter

Adding Rhinestones and crystals to the sorters is very easy. Filling
the sorters to a minimum level is required to ensure proper opera-
tion of the sorting mechanism. See the table below for the proper
amount based on the size of the stones. The following steps and
information will help prepare the sorters for use.
1. Turn the CrystalPress OFF by pressing the power switch on the
back of the Right End Cover to the 'O' position.
2. Empty all undesired stones from the sorter. See the Empty the
Sorter section later in this chapter.
3. Change the Sorter Wheel to match the desired stone size. See the
Install the Sorter Wheel section earlier in this chapter.
4. Ensure you have enough Rhinestones or crystals to properly fill
the bowl for use. The table below provides the recommended
amount.

5. Slowly pour stones into the lower portion of the Sorter Bowl.
Important: DO NOT OVERFILL THE BOWL (see table above).
The stones should not pile higher than the crease inside the
bowl casing as shown below. Too many stones in the Sorter
Bowl cause upsidedown placements.
