Installation Instructions
Inspection of Shipment:
Unpack all cartons and check thoroughly for any damage that may have occurred during transit.
Damage claims should be filed immediately with the transportation company. Gold Medal is not
responsible for damage that occurs in transit.
Setup:
Your new Midori Sno-King Ice Shaver Machine is assembled and tested at the factory.
Remove all packing material and tape before starting operation.
Electrical Requirements:
The following power supply must be provided:
Model No. 1888W: 120 VAC, 60 Hz. 972 Watts 8.1 Amps
.
Your electrician must furnish sufficient current for proper machine operation. We recommend this ice
shaver machine be on a dedicated and circuit protected line. Failure to wire properly will void the
warranty and can result in damage to the heat elements, light, motor and etc.
It is Gold Medal Products Company’s recommendation that this machine be plugged directly into a
wall outlet. The use of extension cords is not recommended due to safety risks1
and the popper’s performance will be sacrificed/reduced.
Before You Plug In Machine:
1. Make sure that the wall outlet can accept the three (3) prong grounded plug 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.
3. DO NOT use a three (3) prong grounded to two (2) prong un-grounded adapter.

2. Raise hopper lid.
3. Fill hopper with Ice.
4. Close lid.
5. Press momentary switch to shave.
NOTE:
Never allow any foreign or metallic objects around the shaver area of the Sno-King. Ice picks,

Harder ice will result in finer snow, while soft ice will result in coarser snow.
