DOUBLE-BAG KIEF COLLECTION SYSTEM

Kief is becoming wildly popular due to the rise of extractions. Unfortunately, machines that require
sprays can contaminate and destroy your Kief, therefore making it virtually useless.

Thankfully, CenturionPro uses a non-stick Quantanium coating on the tumblers. This means no spray is
needed so your Kief remains 100% pure and usable. To further benefit growers, we developed a new
double-bag filtration system. This system will assist with Kief collection, separating it from your trim. This
allows you to safely and easily collect the precious trichomes for further processing and profits.

With your machine, you will see that you have a black mesh bag and a white nylon bag. The black bag is
the new inner bag and the white bag is your new outer bag.

HOW IT WORKS

The green leafy trim will collect in the new
inner black bag.

Only the Kief makes it through the black bag
and collects in the outer mesh bag.

Outer cloth bag catches any Kief that may
pass through the micron white bag.

Turn off the machine and remove the inner
bag and then extract Kief. ENJOY!

The bags are easy to wash with a pressure washer using cold water. The bags can also be put through
the washing machine, but it is recommended to be run through on a cold delicate cycle only.

MACHINE MAINTENANCE

The Mini is a precision machine. It is essential that it is operated and maintained with this in mind.
The machine has been adjusted and tested by the manufacturer prior to shipping to ensure optimal
performance. However, it is important to inspect the machine at initial start-up and after each use to
ensure that no damage or plant material build-up has occurred and that the blades spin freely.

In addition, it is highly recommended to clean the machine at the end of every use. This ensures that the
blades are kept lubricated and that resin does not build-up and affect performance. This is especially
important if the machine has been stored for an extended period of time.

Due to the Quantanium coating on the tumbler, The Mini does not require any lubricants or sprays.
The application of which will only damage or alter the final product and will not assist with the cutting
process. In fact, it may hinder it. Cold water is recommended to spray on blades during harvest.

We recommend taking one or two links out of the belt after 50 hours of use. If you notice the tumbler
rotation slowing down, then this is a sign of the belt becoming loose. Once you notice this happening,
please remove a link or two until it is tight again.

QUANTANIUM COATED NON-STICK TUMBLER

WHAT IS QUANTANIUM?

Quantanium is a multi-coat non-stick
coating that incorporates a unique
mix of titanium particles. These
particles are blended into the coating
that stands up to almost anything
and makes the tumbler resistant to
scratching. The outstanding release is
provided by silicone, not PTFE. All of
our Quantanium coated tumblers are
made without PTFE/PFOA.

WHY DO WE USE QUANTANIUM?

Higher Potency Harvest

The non-stick properties of the Quantanium tumbler prevents precious trichomes from adhering the tumbler
surface without the need for sprays. This results in the end product having a better visual appearance while
maintaining its strong natural aroma and flavors. Overall, this results in a better-quality end product as the
natural properties are preserved during the harvesting and trimming processes.

Save Time = Save Money

Another benefit of the Quantanium tumbler is that it speeds up the harvesting process since no downtime
is required to stop and clean the tumblers throughout the day. A simple whip down with a cloth and warm
water will remove the small amount of residue that may be present.

HOW TO CLEAN THE QUANTANIUM TUMBLER

When cleaning the Quantanium tumbler, we recommend that you DO NOT pressure wash it. This will
cause the coating to flake and come off. Treat the tumbler the same way you would treat a non-stick pan at
home by letting it soak in warm, soapy water. After letting it soak, rinse the tumbler and then wipe it with a
soft, clean cloth.

In extreme cases, residue can be removed by a thorough cleaning with 3 TBSP of vinegar, 1 TBSP liquid dish
detergent and 1 cup of water. Apply with sponge or plastic scrubbing pad, then completely rinse with warm
water.

DO NOT use automotive degreasers.

While the Quantanium surface is designed to stand up to rough treatment, non-stick surfaces last longer if
you are careful not to rub or touch them with metal surfaces or sharp objects. Remember that sensible care
of your Quantanium tumbler will ensure it lasts for many years.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

HOW EASY IS IT TO CLEAN?

Our machines can be taken apart and cleaned within 10-15 minutes. There are four screws to remove the top cover, pressure
wash the machine and then you’re good to go. Our Quantanium coating is similar to a Teflon pan you would have at home
which is even easier to clean. Just submerge in warm water, let soak and then wipe with a soft cloth. We recommend to clean
every 4-6 hours of use, but it depends on your strain. We know the importance of down time during a harvest so we wanted
to make this process extremely quick and easy.

WHAT IS THE MAINTENANCE LIKE?

We have 15 video tutorials on our website with how to fully service your machine. These step by step videos make it very
easy to do everything that will be necessary to maintaining your machine. All parts can be ordered right through the website

and will be delivered to you within days.

DO YOUR MACHINES TRIM WET OR DRY?

Our trimmers have the capability of doing both. We offer wet tumblers for wet trimming and dry tumblers for dry trimming.
This is a major benefit because you can purchase one machine, with an additional tumbler and now you have the capabil­ity to trim wet or dry flowers. Our dry tumblers have a smaller cutting surface than the wet. If you were to run dry product
through a wet tumbler, you would have excess loss of flowers. Keeping the yield high is the biggest advantage to having a

specific tumbler for both methods of harvesting, wet or dry.

ARE YOUR MACHINES BUILT TO AN INDUSTRIAL STANDARD?

We do not compromise quality for cost savings. All CenturionPro Solutions machines are composed of the highest quality
materials available in North America and each machine is put through a comprehensive quality control inspection. We only
use brand name components in the build out of our machines which enables us to have the comfort in giving you a 10 year

warranty. With proper maintenance these machines will last you well over a decade.

WHAT IS THE OPTIMAL ROOM TEMPERATURE TO TRIM?

Use your CenturtionPro machine in 50-60 °F (10- 15 °C) room to get the best performance. Cooler temperatures prevent
excessive sticking to machine components.

MY MACHINE IS NOT WORKING LIKE IT DID WHEN IT WAS NEW, WHY?

Make sure to fully clean the machine and blades. If the machine is clean, the blade is adjusted properly and the leaf collector
has full suction, then you machine should trim exactly like it was new.

MY PRODUCT IS NOT MOVING THROUGH THE TUMBLER, WHY?

You need to consistently feed the tumbler so it is about 50%-60% full at all times. If the product won’t pass through, try tak­ing the plastic top cover off and you should instantly see it begin exiting the tumbler. You can also prop the back wheels up a
bit to increase the angle the machine is on. Some strains are heavier and will need more of an angle to exit.

WHY IS PRODUCT IS STICKING INSIDE OF THE TUMBLER?

If you find that product is sticking inside the tumbler, first clean the tumbler. When you reassemble it, make sure the top
brush bristles are poking through 1/4" into the tumbler.

HOW MUCH PRODUCT SHOULD BE IN THE TUMBLER AT ONE TIME?

The tumbler should be 50-60% full when trimming.
