Default Savic HH how to use tube blockers and is sand safe?

Hi guys just bought the Hamster Heaven Metro and it came with sand for the wee toilet? is this gravel/sand safe to put in?

Also it came with tube blockers but I'm yet to figure out how to clip it on, i get my little friend saturday and have been advised to block of the tubes to begin with as they tend to hide and make taming hard at first?

The yellow plates kind of hook onto the bars rather than clicking on, they are a bit fiddly. I'd advise putting the connector and the clear blocker on (they just click together but they can be tight sometimes) before you attach it to the cage, I pushed too hard and cracked one of mine!

The toilet litter is fine, I used mine when I ran out of sand. I don't think I'd buy it myself though, I prefer using chinchilla sand.

You do have to just fiddle a bit to get those blockers on but I don't think I can explain it any better.
The litter you get is fine but I find chinchilla sand a lot better, it's easier to clean, a lot cheaper in the long run & the hams seem to prefer it.
