from the sorters with the following process:

2. Rotate the Wiper Arm all the way up until it stops.
3. Loosen the Sorter Wheel Thumbscrew and remove it.
4. Slowly pull the Sorter Wheel up off the Sorter Bowl shaft. Tilt the
Sorter Wheel once it clears the shaft, allowing the stones to fall
into the empty Sorter Bowl. Once all the stones are off the Sorter
Wheel, remove it and set aside.

Note
If the design requires more colors
or sizes than the CrystalPress
has Sorter Bowls, you will have
to change Sorter Wheels in the
middle of printing the motif. Do
NOT turn OFF power during
the switch so that the current
printing location is preserved and
the motif continues from where
it left off.
Caution
Make sure every stone is
removed from the Sorter
Bowl, especially small sizes.
Stones caught under the Sorter
Wheel can cause the C-Stick to
malfunction and drastically lower
throughput.
