5.1 Tobacco Preparation
Proper tobacco preparation is crucial for optimal machine performance and consistent cigarette quality. Use tobacco that is dry and has a consistent cut. Tobacco that is too moist or has excessively long strands can lead to jams and uneven filling. It is often beneficial to air-dry tobacco for a few hours before use to achieve the ideal moisture level.
5.2 Loading the Tobacco Hopper
Open the lid of the tobacco hopper. Fill the hopper with your prepared tobacco. The large hopper is designed to hold enough tobacco for up to 30 cigarettes. Ensure the tobacco is evenly distributed but not overly packed in the hopper. Close the lid after loading.
5.3 Inserting a Cigarette Tube
Slide an empty cigarette tube onto the nozzle located on the side of the machine. Ensure the tube is fully seated against the machine for proper injection. The machine supports both King and 100mm size tubes.
5.4 Selecting Cigarette Density
The Powermatic III+ features a digital display that allows you to select your desired tobacco compression (density). Use the density selection button (typically located near the display) to cycle through available settings. Experiment with different settings to find your preferred cigarette firmness.
5.5 Starting the Injection Process
Once the hopper is loaded and a tube is in place, press the "START" button. The machine will automatically load, compress, and inject tobacco into the tube. The process typically takes a few seconds per cigarette.
5.6 Digital Counters
The digital display includes two counters: a resettable counter for tracking current session production and a lifetime counter for the total number of cigarettes made by the machine. The resettable counter can be reset using its dedicated button.
5.7 Automatic Jam Protection
The Powermatic III+ is equipped with automatic jam protection. If the machine detects a tobacco jam, it will stop operation to prevent damage. Refer to the Troubleshooting section for resolving jams.

This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your Powermatic III+.
| Arazoa | Kausa posiblea | Irtenbidea |
|---|---|---|
| "Hopper" warning light illuminates frequently. | Tobacco is too moist, too long-cut, or not feeding properly. | Ensure tobacco is dry and has a consistent cut. Use the poker stick to gently mix and push tobacco down in the hopper. Open and close the hopper lid to reset the sensor. |
| Cigarettes are too loose or tobacco falls out. | Incorrect density setting, tobacco too dry, or tube not fully seated. | Adjust the density setting to a higher compression. Ensure tobacco is not excessively dry. Make sure the cigarette tube is pushed completely onto the nozzle. Some users find lightly pushing on the filter end of the tube towards the machine during injection helps. |
| Tobacco does not reach the filter end of the tube. | Tube not fully seated, or tobacco consistency. | Ensure the tube is fully on the nozzle. Experiment with tobacco moisture and density settings. Hand-packing the filter end after injection may be necessary for some users. |
| Machine becomes louder over time. | Normal wear, or internal components may require lubrication (not user-serviceable). | This can be a sign of normal operation over extended use. If the noise becomes excessive or is accompanied by other issues, contact customer support. |
| Makina ustekabean gelditu da. | Jam protection activated, or power interruption. | Check for tobacco jams and clear them. Ensure the power cord is securely connected. If the issue persists, unplug and re-plug the machine. |
