Spin rotators will be used to create the longitudinal beam polarization at a location of the EIC experimental detector. Helical spin rotators utilized for polarized proton operation in present RHIC will be reused in the EIC Hadron Storage Ring. However, due to a significant difference of EIC and RHIC interaction region layouts, the EIC spin rotator arrangement has several challenges. Turning on the EIC spin rotators may lead to a significant spin tune shift. To prevent beam depolarization during the spin rotator turn-on, Siberian Snakes have to be tuned simultaneously with rotators. The EIC spin rotators must be able to operate in a wide energy range for polarized protons and polarized 3He ions. The paper presents the challenges of spin rotator usage in the EIC and remedies assuring the successful operation with the rotators.
