Safety notes for the for the neodymium magnet of the magnetic M16 head connector by Indigo Individual.

Magnetic connector not screwed into the love doll

Magnets are not toys! Make sure that children don't play with magnets. Magnets could affect the functioning of pacemakers and implanted heart defibrillators. If you wear these devices keep sufficient distance to magnets. Magnets produce a far-reaching, strong magnetic field. They could damage TVs and laptops, computer hard drives, credit and ATM cards, data storage media, mechanical watches, hearing aids, loud speakers, vehicle keys, digital cameras, cell phones and smart phones.

Magnetic connector screwed into the love doll

Make sure that no moisture affects the magnet during washing the love doll. Moisture can cause oxidation and corrosion of the magnet and the connector. Make sure that no powder gets into the lower part of the connector during powdering the neck of the love doll. For preventing it, place a rolled paper towel into the lower part of the connector.

I. General information about the Magnetic M16 head connector by Indigo Individual.

The magnetic M16 head connector is a comfort product and replaces the original M16 connection bolt.

The usage of the magnetic M16 head connector provides you the long missed flexibility and easy handling of the whole love doll.

Because of the easy way you put on and remove the doll head with wig the following comfort effects are now permanent available:

• Dressing and undressing of the love doll becomes easier and enormous shorten in time, because you are able to remove and put on the doll head with wig very easy.
• Removing the head with wig makes the love doll about two kilos lighter and 18 cm shorter. Carrying the love doll through doors and across stairs becomes much easier.
• Without head and wig it is also easier to prepare the positioning of the love doll for photo shooting or for positions having sex. Put on the head with wig after you have done the positioning and place the hair along the love doll.
• It is an advantage to lay down the love doll without head and wig on her back. Therewith the hairs of the wig are not under the love doll. Put on the head with wig after the love doll is layed down and place the hair along the love doll.
• A quick storage of the love doll inside a coffin becomes enormous shorten in time just by removing the head with wig. Because of the weight and lenght reduction of the doll the whole storage process becomes more quick and safe in addition.

With optionally available top part of the connector:

• Swap between different heads with wigs within seconds. If you have a doll head with open eyes and a doll head with closed eyes you are able to change the charisma and impression of the love doll for your desired situation (e.g. day and night).

With optionally available lower part of the connector:

• Place and store the doll head on a DIY head (work) station.

• 2 additional O-rings as spare parts (light braking effect of the head)
• 2 additional sticky felt washers (enhanced braking effect for the head)

Optionally available top part for more doll heads:

• with O-ring (light braking effect of the head)
• additional sticky felt washer (enhanced braking effect for the head)

Optionally available lower part for DIY head (work) station:

IV. Mounting and adjustment of the Magnetic M16 head connector by Indigo Individual.

Before using the magnetic M16 head connector please make sure that

• the threads in the neck and head are free of dust and dirt,
• the top of the neck is cleaned and powdered without powder inside the thread,
• the bottom of the head is cleaned and
• that the measurements of the connector fit with the threads of neck and head of your love doll.

Put on and remove of the doll head.

Do never hold the doll head with both hands left and right at the ears! The power of the magnet is really strong. The ears are very filigree and could be damaged. Additional ear rings could be teared out.
Instead, place one hand beneath the chin and the other hand on the back of the head with wig. Lift the head slowly against the power of the magnet. Inverse the procedure for attaching the head with wig.

Mounting for first adjustment.

Do not use the provided teflon tape for this step.

At first you have to make sure if it is possible to mount both connector parts because of the possible thread tolerance of the doll production.

Screw in the lower part of the connector in the thread of the neck until the blank surface of the lower part of the connector is concise with the top of the thread.
Remove the O-ring of the top part of the connector.

Screw in the top part of the connector in the thread of the head until the blank surface of the top part of the connector is concise with the top of the thread.

Attach the O-ring afterwards.
There is no connection to the magnet in the lower part of the connector if the top part of the connector is screwed in too deep.

Put on the doll head.

The bolt of the top part of the connector fits into the drilling of the lower part of the connector. Now you can feel the contact with the magnet. Try to lift the head a bit against the power of the magnet.

If there is no contact with the magnet, adjust the top part of the connector inside the head again. Because of the possible tolerance of the threads from the doll production, it is possible that the head can wiggle. That will be fixed with the teflon tape later.

Check that the head fits exactly with the material from the neck. Turn the head left and right and check the smooth movement of the head.
In case that there was an adjustment of the top part necessary to make everything fit, keep the position of the top part in mind. Remove both parts from the connector.

We are now going to prepare both connector parts with teflon tape.


Solid screw connection with teflon tape.

Wrap both parts of the connector with teflon tape. It is a right-hand thread. Wrap in direction with the thread.
You have to wrap only 3-4 times if both connector parts were tight during the first adjustment.

Wrap around 6-7 times if there was a tolerance of the thread.

Now screw in the lower part of the connector.

Screw in the top part of the connector as it was with the first adjustment.

Do now the same check as made with the first adjustment.

The magnet has contact, the head fits and can be turned very smooth.

The powdered top of the neck provides the smooth movement of the head and the O-ring between both connector parts provides a light braking effect.


Slight nodding.

It is normal that there is a light nodding. You cannot prevent this. We have the construction concept "bolt within a drilling". There must be a small tolerance.


Enhancing the braking effect of the doll head with felt washer.

Place the felt washer with the sticky side at the bottom of the doll head. From now the felt washer is rubbing on the top of the neck and therewith you are receiving an enhanced braking effect while turning the doll head.
If you like to enhance the braking effect in addition, remove some powder from the top of the neck. Therewith the rubbing effect becomes stronger. You can use this effect for photo shootings.

But for the normal usage of the doll with a lot of movement of the dolls head, please keep powder on the top of the neck.

V. Service and cleaning of the Magnetic M16 Connector by Indigo Individual.

As you know you have to cover the dolls head or the dolls neck with a plastic bag while washing the love doll to prevent, that water gets inside the love doll.

The love doll is not watertight on her neck. And in addition you have to prevent that moisture can affect the magnet.

Please use a rolled paper towel and stick it in the lower part of the connector while washing and / or powdering the love doll. That prevents that powder can reduce the contact of the magnet.
For cleaning the top and lower part of the magnetic M16 head connector please use a dry paper towel. Do only a dry cleaning. Please do never use oil!

Dust and dirt inside the drilling of the lower part of the connector can be removed with a small brush and a vacuum cleaner. Screw out the lower part of the connector if intense cleaning is necessary. Use a pencil and remove the neodymium magnet.

This is a awesome, great instructions! Already ordered my set, one full set and 2 additional head adapters from Booty Call Dolls (Jeff)! Can't wait for them to arrive!

What are realy good product and how to thread...well done all....even Lilith could fit these ....I shall look into getting some me thinks!

Can you order a doll with this connection type pre-configured? I'm a tech savvy, but by no means mechanically inclined. I fear I will screw this all up.

I guess everybody can use the magnetic connector who managed to get the original (threaded) connector working. It get's only a bit complicated if you don't have tools like a wrench, or if your doll's neck thread is corroded (like on my Z-Onedoll).

We can pre-install the connector on all dolls that go through our Berlin office (all EU customers), or that run through a PQC in Chongqing at X/S.

You can check with Jeff from BCD if he offers controlled shipping as well. If he does, he could pre-install the connector as well.
