[QUOTE="Monty, post: 96509, member: 2033"] Wolfau You will need a step down transformer, this changes 240V AC to 110V AC, which this machine will operate on. Don't try to plug it into our electricity supply directly - it will blow up!! I have found one at Jaycar for $99, but have not bought one yet. You will also need some polishing/tumbling media. I will be purchasing some crushed walnut shells to use (eBay again). When you have all the above, fill the bowl to say about 1/2 full. Secure the lid and start the motor. You should hear it going (vibrating). Turn the machine off, put some coins in (about 5 maybe a couple more), secure the lid and start the machine. I intend to put it on a timer, so that if I leave it for a while and forget about it, it will automatically turn off. Not sure exactly how long to set the timer for yet, but will try 1/2 hr run time and check the progress of the cleaning. I did see a uTube video on this somewhere, maybe stumbled on a link through this forum, but not really sure. Hope this helps mate. Cheers. Monty. [/QUOTE]
