Operating and Maintenance Manual 

All ROLLSIZER.COM products are covered by patents across 48 Countries. 

PLEASE READ THIS MANUAL BEFORE YOU CALL ASKING FOR 

TECHNICAL SUPPORT.  

We at rollsizer.com are always happy to help if you have any questions, 

but it is nice to know you have read this first.  
Please only use clean cases in the rollsizer. The use of dirty cases in the 

rollsizer will wear out the base and disc and is not a warranty claim. We 

recommend wet cleaning as dry cleaning can leave dry / dusty residue on 

cases which can lead to wear. 
The rollsizer and parts are shipped with a Lanolin based coating to 

prevent surface rust, yes it looks horrible, but it is the best we have found 

to date, clean it off with degreaser or alcohol-based wipes before use. 
Please run your DC rollsizer for a minimum of 2 Hours unloaded to bed in 

the brushes and gearbox before rollsizing cases. If your rollsizer stalls 

when rolling cases, run the rollsizer unloaded overnight. Occasional / 

Intermittent stalling WILL occur at first, this is a protection device to 

ensure the machine is protected whilst running in. 
Yes, the rollsizer will get warm especially when new / running in, this is 

normal. Please check your cases are not plated steel, they are  hard to 

spot. Check with a magnet.
