Installation Instructions

Inspection of Shipment:

Claims should be filed immediately with the transportation company. The warranty also
does not cover damage that occurs in transit or damage caused by abuse or
consequential damage due to the operation of this machine, since it is beyond our control.

Your Floss Machine warranty is described on the back page of this manual. This does
NOT cover the motor bearings, since they can be damaged by the operator.

Electrical Requirements:
The following power supply must be provided:

15 amp, 60 Hz, 120VAC

After unpacking, check thoroughly for any damage which may have occurred in transit.

Before You Plug In Machine:

1. Make sure the wall outlet can accept the grounded plugs (where applicable) on the power
supply cord.

2. The wall outlet must have the proper polarity. If in doubt, have a competent electrician
inspect the outlet and correct if necessary.

Controls and Their Functions

Power Switch – Supplies power to the machine without turning on any components. Also acts

as a “Master” on/off switch. Turning the power switch off will turn motor and
heat off. (Power Switch is located on the side of the machine)

Candy Switch – Turns motor and heat cycle on. Turning this switch “off” when finished making
cotton candy allows the machine to start it’s cooling cycle. Note: Motor will
continue turning during the cooling cycle, and will stop turning after 45-60
seconds. (Candy Switch is located on the front of the machine)

Operating Instruction

1. With the CANDY SWITCH “off”, turn the POWER SWITCH “on”. The spinner head will
not start to rotate.

2. With the spinner head stopped, pour sugar into the spinner head. Fill to about the 90%
level, DO NOT over-fill.

3. Turn the CANDY SWITCH to “on”. The spinner head will rotate and heat, after about 45
seconds the machine will start to make cotton candy.

4. When the spinner head is empty, or to stop making cotton candy, turn the CANDY

SWITCH “off”. The cooling cycle will start. When the cooling cycle completes, the spinner
head will stop rotating. When the spinner head is stopped; re-fill with sugar, turn the
CANDY SWITCH “on”, and continue to make cotton candy.

Sugar for Your Cotton Candy

Our ready to use FLOSSUGAR is the preferred sugar for your new cotton candy machine. Our
FLOSSUGAR gives you good rich colors, and great flavors, too. It is packed in handy half-gallon sealed
cartons, with E-Z pour spout for filling your machine. FLOSSUGAR comes in 12 flavors, and you can
easily change colors for greatest variety, and best sales.

Today 99% of the sugar manufactured is “Extra Fine Granulated” which does have some small particles
that can slip through the slots in the spinner head without being melted. You can use plain white cane or
beet sugar. If this becomes objectionable, you can seek out Medium Coarse, or sanding sugars. The
larger crystal size will require a little more heat to melt. Read the label on the bag of sugar—today we see
some “Free Flowing” sugar for restaurants, and it contains cornstarch, which will burn onto your spinner
head, clogging it rapidly. We have also seen some cheap off-brand “sugar” which is a blend of sugar and
dextrose or corn syrup. This product makes very poor cotton candy. Please make sure you get good
sugar for your cotton candy machine.

Making Floss

Pick a cone; if it sticks in the stack of cones, twist it off the stack.
Hold an inch or two of the pointed end of the cone between two fingers and a thumb.

With a light flicking action, roll cone in the web of floss building up in the pan. Lift the
cone up with the ring of floss attached and rotate the cone to wrap the floss. DO NOT
roll floss while the cone is inside the pan. This will pack the floss too tightly.

If the floss fails to stick to the cone, pass the cone near the spinner head to pick up a
“starter” of melted sugar. Lift the cone out of the pan and wrap the floss with a "figure
eight" movement of the hand. This leaves giant pockets and makes the final product
appear larger. Make sure room humidity is not too high, or product will be "heavy".
