Tinned tobacco is cheaper, but the pouch is more practical.In theory maps should be included;basically, you'll have to buy those too.
You can find plastic or metal ones, they cost €3-4.
it is made up of two rollers, one of which is mobile and moves by opening the mechanism.Always keep the roller moving in front of you.
Fill the space without pressing the tobacco:the machine will take care of pressing it.
Remove the excess tobacco but leave the fragments that stick out, as they will be rolled up with the rest.
unwinding it would mean, looking at the machine from the side, turning the left roller counterclockwise and the right one clockwise;rewinding it would be the opposite.

Close the moving roller and begin to rotate it up and down gently. You should feel some pressure and see any bits of tobacco sticking out being sucked back in.If the pressure is such that it is difficult to turn the roller, it means that you have put in too much tobacco.You have to remove some of it, but to do this you have to open the mechanism without spilling all the contents.Take this into account when filling the ribbon with tobacco.

Get a map. Locate the side without adhesive and insert it into the machine so that the adhesive strip is facing you.Remember that the machine must be kept closed and you must have the mobile roller in front of you.Attention now:by turning the roller downwards you slide the map into the machine.The roller may struggle to grip the map, in this case help yourself by pushing it a little with your fingers.When the map is almost all the way in, lick the sticker and finish sliding it.Do a couple of extra turns.
If everything went well you should find a cigarette ready.

Advice

This would be point 3.5:if you want the filter, place it on one end of the ribbon together with the tobacco and proceed as described.
An advantage of tinned tobacco is that you can twist the cigarette by holding the machine raised above the open package:some of the tobacco will fall into the box, reducing cleaning time.
To remove the cigarette without crushing it with your fingers, once the mechanism is open, give the roller a half turn:the cigarette will be lifted by the belt and you will be able to grab it without difficulty.

Warnings

Having reached point 7, when you twist the tobacco to shape the cigarette, if you encounter a lot of resistance and use too much force, the mobile roller could come out of the hinges, suddenly opening the machine, shooting the tobacco all around.
Cigarettes are harmful to your health:If you haven't already, you should try quit.
