THANK YOU, Wayne! I bought one of these today at a yard sale and it didn’t work - found your video and now it works perfectly. Thank you for sharing 🙏🏼
Sarah, Thank you for the comment and we are glad our video helped.. Thank you for visiting and have a great day.
Great demo Wayne!! I just bought three shufflers. If they cause me problems, thanks to you, I can fix it!
Thanks for the video...I had the problem with the left side not pulling in the cards because the housing was separating..just hot glued it and working good as new!!
Glad it helped. Also try running the cards face up. Ours run better that way. Thank you for visiting and have a great day.
Fixed mine exactly like this video and running smoothly with no problems so far, thanks
Thanks. Very practical. My wife s got a small one not working and a larger one like the three you have shown. If the big one stops, I have the glue and toothpicks but I ll prbly try first to find a piece of thin metal. Appreciate the explanation.
You are very welcome and thank you for visiting, have a great day.
Thank you Wayne for making this video! Our card shuffler stopped working and my little kids were so bummed. I’m so glad I decided to google how to fix it before purchasing another! Such a quick fix :) I used part of a Bobby pin. Works great! Thank you again, you saved the day!
Thanks- it worked! You explained everything so well. Are/were you a teacher?
Thank you for the kind comment and no, I was never a teacher. Thank you for visiting, have a great day.
you are a lifesaver. i bought 3. one for myself and two for christmas gifts. the one i started after one day, melted half way. i just reinforced all three with a cut paper clip and hopefully they last a little longer
@@DIYwithWayne most definitely
The best solution to the factory switch is to solder a wire across the switch so that the wire is hot all the time then add a rocker switch to the body of the shuffler. Works great and keeps both hands available to assist feeding cards.
Thank you for your suggestion and for visiting our channel. We hope you have a great day.
I couldn't see any reason for having those protruding tooth wheels at the back (on both sides of the tray); they serve no function, so I opened up the machine and took them both out (and I'm glad that I did). The machine now runs much smoother, cards don't get jammed, it's far less noisy, and the cards don't jump around and fly off the tray (this is all because of those stupid wheels at the back). The initial reason for taking those wheels out is because they may damage the cards in time with those teeth. And while I had the machine opened, I fixed the lever that starts the device; the contact plates were not touching when the lever was pressed down, so I put a piece of plastic underneath the bottom contact plate to raise it up a little.
Thank you for your suggestion and for visiting our channel. We hope you have a great day.
Muy buen video, compre una nueva y no funcionaba, la desarme y acomode el contacto, quedó perfecta, acabo de repararla.
Muchas gracias!!!!
You're very welcome. Glad you found it helpful. Thank you for visiting and have a great day.
Some people complain about the noise these machines make. That's caused by the speed the machine is running at. The noise level can be reduced by simply pressing the button about halfway down and running it at a lower speed; it will still shuffle the cards.
Thank you for your suggestion and for visiting our channel. We hope you have a great day.
These shufflers are junk... bought one and right out of the box it had both problems you showed. I fixed the switch and made a adjustment to the feed but it's still not very good at feeding and the same rate. Found your video but you don't cover have to fix the feeding issue.. Any solution to the feeding problem?
Hello Automag, YES they are junk! The problem is that a good shuffler can cost you $800 to $1000 or more. I'm glad my video helped repair part of your shuffler. As for the problem with feeding, most of the time I don't see this problem often on the 4 deck units. I have had the problem and it was because the housing around the gears came unglued. I glued it back and fixed that problem.
Just an FYI the 6 deck shufflers do have a better switch mechanism. The most common problem I see with them is the feed rollers wear out and won't feed. At this point, I don't have a fix for that.

What was the fix for the cards not shuffling ? Mentioned at 1:07
The likely cause is one of 2 things. First is, the cards are not good and flat. To fix this, turn the cards over and run them face up. Second is the rollers are slipping and this can be caused by the gears not aligned. You can try pushing them back in place and this may work. If not it could be a broken housing that holds the gears. You could try gluing it back but the easy fix is to purchase a new shuffler. Thank you for visiting and have a great day.
Hi Wayne. I have the other issue that you described, it is feeding fast from the right, but very slowly from the left. ...any ideas on how I could go about fixing that? Thanks for the video
It could be a problem with the gears. Sometimes they will get misaligned or the housing will spread a little so they don't line up well. Good luck and thank you for visiting.
I have the exact same one, what about cards shuffling onto the table in reverse instead of shuffling into the case????
Batteries are backwards.
Mines brand new but doesn't work, would that still be the same problem. It's wirring but doesn't move the cards
If it is running but not feeding the cards, that is a different problem. It could be the cards. We have had better luck with new cards. Thank you for visiting and have a great day.
Should you ever lubricate the gears? If so, with what?
Probably tri-flow. Just my two cents since no-one replied within months
If both sides don't work same solution
Could you supply some more information. Does it not work at all? If you provide more information, I might can give you a suggestion. Thank you for visiting and have a great day.
Can you put things like Pokémon and yugioh in there to shuffle?
I believe those types of cards are thicker than regular playing cards, so I'm not sure it would be able to shuffle them. Thank you for visiting and have a great day.
What about the one that only pulls from one side?
That is usually caused by a problem with the gears not meshing or out of alignment. Thank you for visiting and nave a great day.
Hi Dwayne, have you worked on the ARRCO battery operated card shuffler? I got one on ebay but it does not work well.
Thanks
No but if it's old, the problem is likely the rubber rollers that feed the cards are dried out and hard. Thank you for visiting and have a great day.
Thank you for your reply.
Thank you for your reply.
Thank you for your reply.
Thank you for your reply.
I am having an issue where the motors spin the wrong way and spit cards off the sides of the shuffler into the middle. How do I fix that?
This will happen if the batteries are in wrong. If the positive and negative are reversed the motors will run backwards. I hope this helps correct your problem. Good luck with your project and have a great day.
That's the trouble when buying Chinese shit!
You are correct. Thank you for visiting and have a great day.
I have one and when i press the button ,only the left one moves the cards ,i dissasemble IT ,the both dc motors are working but only the mecanism from the left is spinning,the other one not.
Yes,fixed ,i put them together ,works. But sometimes when i shuffle the cards ,on that side it jumps down from the gearbox , how shoud i apply superglue ,before and after the little gearbox from the motor ?? I m afraid If after appying glue IT would stop spinning .
one wheel is running slow how i fix it?
Most likely is a problem with the gears. Sometimes one will slip to the side and not mesh well. If this is the problem, you should be able to slide it back. Good luck with your project and have a great day.

Buy a mouse from the pet shop and put him inside the machine to spin the gears up!
