Why does the floss maker not spin?

I'm not sure what you are talking about. The floss head, where it heats up in the center, does spin, and then the heated sugar comes out in tiny threads.

In my experience, sometimes the machine walks around sometimes it doesn't. It doesn't matter what I am putting in it. It may have something to do with pulp displacement.

Funny you should ask. I just encountered the same problem when I had to change my batteries for the first time day before yesterday. I ended up using a pair of pliers (it turns really hard) and discovered also that I had been turning the dial the wrong direction (my brain is old, you see...lol), I was turning right instead of left. I thoroughly dusted all the powdery substance the grater had accumulated and it went back together smoothly. Working like a charm again. Good luck!

The knob on front is the drag tension. Tighten it and the spool wont spin unless too much pressure is applied when a monster size fish gets on the hook.

Thanks for all the answers - I have determined that my table's spinning is not normal behavior nor does it work as intended.

It spins but it's not supposed to....basically the top sets onto the pole. If you push down hard enough the top won't rotate unless you try to make it do so. If you set it onto the pole and grab the edge and turn, it will rotate. Also, no way to lock the top on, so if you pick the table up, the top can literally pop off the pole and base. Lastly, don't expect the black coloring to last, the veneer marks easily under light to moderate usage.

there is no trick I am so upset with this item I just want to chuck it in trash but my sister bought one first and hers is on steriodes or something and she has no problems and if we put both machines side by side there is only one diffrence hers works and mine does not. The cotton candy machine does not work either. Sorry your luck is as bad as mine. Janet

When you loosen the main jaws, they are then able to rotate. There is a little marking band for accurate angle settings. I personally wish there was a way to loosen the jaws without it rotating. Gets a little tricky with heavier items.

What I have found is that the rotadent brush heads cannot receive pressure while brushing. It's imperative to NOT use this device as one would either a traditional handheld brush or a less expensive version of a mechanical brush. The brush head must be allowed to turn freely, especially in those hard to reach areas between molars and the gums. I believe there are tiny gears in the brush head and if they are not allowed to turn freely then they will strip - thus causing the brush head to stop working. I think I destroyed 4-5 (@$19 a piece) before I got the hang of it.

Mine rotates as well. Reading that some of them do not, I wonder if we have defective X-Grips.

I think you have to twist and pull at the same time. I can't remember which way you are supposed to twist, so try both ways. If it doesn't move after that I think yours is defective. Mine adjusted without any trouble.

It requires one to get the hang of it to attach the waterfloss. A few weeks ago, I took it with me at the Crowne Plaza hotel and I was able to use it with their faucet. Please, watch the video from this link: http://www.pro-floss.com/profloss-water-flosser. I love this flosser even though I still use a water pik. I hope you will be able to resolve your issue.

Try the straw in different positions. Mine works best straight up and down. It often doesn't work when fully back.

Try to lightly hold the handle but allow it to spin with the mop instead of holding the handle still. Should help with that.

I let my machine warm up for 10 minutes.Try using a little less sugar in the bin OR try using a different brand of sugar. As stated below, try to get it in there evenly. You will always have a little bit of sugar that sticks to the sides of the spinner, but I just keep letting it spin until most of it comes out. We use the "Magic Floss" brand of cotton candy mix.

I tried to replicate this issue with both of mine and could not. Sometimes if you do not have the prongs lined up correctly with the center piece the lid will not advance correctly but it will not keep spinning around. I think you may have a defective one. A return would be my suggestion.

If you mean the spinning part, mine only moves when I move it. If you mean it slips on where you have it positioned, Maybe put it on a non slip pad or surface. If it spins like a top(very loose), I would believe it may be defective
