How do you get the rollers to spin or rotate?

they turn when you turn the machine on but not all of them rotate. every other one turns.

Sounds like it is broke to me. My rollers works just fine. However, I was very disappointed with the performance. It took longer to cook on the HDG150 then the time to fire up the BBQ and cook then. My hot dog cooker has been used only twice, and may be donated to Goodwill soon.

Once it is plugged in, press the on button. If it does not roll, then you got a broken one. Return it.

Thank you Al, I had the same problem. Use both hands and twist in opposite directions - and keep twisting until it coils right up.

There should be a pin with a screw end to it that goes through the wheel and the base, and then a fastener to attach it to keep it stable when it spins. If not, you'll need to go to a hardware store to buy such. Very simple really.

If you take the rollers out, on one end is a little peg thing. There is a hole on the left side if you're facing it. The peg fits inside there. Then you set the right knob to on and the left one to max to heat the rollers. If it is done correctly, they should turn slowly. If you want them to go slower, change the knob more towards less. I hope this helps. I love using mine. It's great for hotdogs and for the brats sausages, etc.

try twisting any one hose 1/4 turn and repeat until you get the movement you want. it should move in different directions as it cleans

I do not know how to reverse that problem. Do you think you used the roller too hard?

When you first wind it up you can rotate it a full rotation, maybe two, against the spring. When you release it that should make it start spinning nice and fast. What I tell people to do is hold it so the spinner is facing down, and imagine there is a laser pointing straight down from the bottom. Without moving your arm, only your wrist, start slowly drawing circles on the floor with the imaginary laser pointer. You will feel resistance against that motion. Push against that resistance as you rotate your wrist and rotate faster and you will be able to speed up the gyro and get the forearm workout you are looking for.

The wheels dont turn like a cars. To turn you have to either vary the speeds or inverse the rotation on one side. When spinning opposite directions it pivots almost perfects from the middle.

We found that different settings of the wheels/axle resulted in more or less twisting. Generally, the more the robot turns, the more the cord seems to tangle. Try adjusting that, where you start the robot in the pool, or how long it cleans. For our pool (18x36 rectangle), making the wheels turn hardly at all and starting the robot at one end rather than the center kept the cord from tangling but still got our pool clean.

I had the same issue. You just have to twist them pretty hard to the degree you need.

You hold onto the black part (on the inside - its sort of flat). So you are holding the reel with one hand, only touching the black. Then you use your other hand to turn the handle thing. Essentially the orange wheel goes around, but the black part stays still. I think I would up 2 of them before I figured it out. It helps to stick one end of the cord through one of the openings so it stays.

The handles move independently from the roller, so yes they do roll. It might take awhile for them to really loosen up when brand new though.

Make sure you have your handle in tight. I thought both rollers moved. MAKE SURE YOU USE ENOUGH FLOUR TO KEEP FROM STICKING.

I agree with other response. The rollers make it easier to push onto the arms, but it doesn't roll freely.

Mine is doing the exact same thing. Been looking for a solution without any luck.The rollers are turing like they are supposed to, but not scrubbing anything. Just two little tracks where the sponge wheels are.

Have you cleaned everything from the roller? Sometimes debris can get stuck in the corners. Mine did this once and worked fine after I cleaned it out. You can detach the roller and check for anything that is stopping it up. Hope this helps.

There is a black button on the side at level of the top of the wheels. Hit it and pull or push the skate longer or shorter.
