OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1. Make sure the machine is installed on a sturdy, level and waterproof surface.

2. Do not use the ice block directly from the freezer; the shaved ice will not be fluffy and can
cause excessive wear to your blade. Allow ice to soften ½ hour prior to shaving.

3. Pull and turn the main shaft locking knob so that you can raise the main shaft by turning the
handwheel. Once the ice block holder is raised upward, return the locking knob to the "LOCK"
position.

4. Open the front shield by releasing the safety latch and pulling forward.

5. Place a square or cylindrical ice block on the shaving platter, centering the block.

6. Place the locking knob to the free position and lower the main shaft by turning the hand wheel
until the spikes are imbedded in the ice.

7. Close the front shield (make sure the main power switch is turned "OFF") and reattach the
safety latch, locking the front and rear shields together.

8. Turn the Shaving Pressure Knob clockwise until it comes to a stop.

9. Turn "ON" the main power switch. The motor will not run if the front shield is open or not
properly closed.

10. Slowly turn the knob, located below the shaving platter, until you get the fineness of shaved
ice you desire.

SHAVING PRESSURE KNOB (located on front of machine)

1. This knob adjusts the amount of pressure which is applied downward onto the block of ice.

Turning the knob clockwise will increase the amount of shaved ice produced and will vary
the texture from very fine to coarse as the pressure is being applied.

2. When you need to raise and lower the main shaft, release the pressure by turning the

knob counterclockwise.

SHAVING TEXTURE KNOB (located on the underside of the blade platter)

1. Lower the shaver blade before adding the block of ice to the shaving platter. If the blade is

too high it could accidentally release the block out of the holder.

2. For coarse shaved ice, turn the knob clockwise. For finer shaved ice, turn the knob

counterclockwise.

ICE BLOCK FREEZING SUGGESTIONS

1. Use Gold Medal's plastic Ice Mold with Lid (Part No. 1085) to freeze blocks of ice.

2. Fill the container with cool tap water to a ½" from the top rim of the container.

3. Firmly press the lid onto the container until the lid snaps shut.

4. Set your frezer to a temperature range of 10-15º F. Fill your freezer with as many ice

molds as possible by stacking one on another. This will slow down the freezing process
and prevent cracking.

5. Let the water freeze completely for approximately 24-30 hours for best shaving results.

6. After the water has frozen, remove the block from the plastic container and place it into

Gold Medal clear bags (Part No. 3064) so you can use the ice mold container to freeze
more ice.

CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS

Wipe the exterior of the machine with a soft cloth that has been dipped into a mixture of mild dish
detergent and warm water. Remove excess water or soap spots with a soft cloth.

CLEANING THE INTERIOR OF THE SHAVING CHAMBER

1. Open the front shield of the shaving chamber and remove the shield by lifting it upward.

2. Raise the main shaft by rotating the handwheel. Turn and pull the locking knob until the main

shaft is held in the raised position.

3. Remove the (2) wing bolts on the underside of the shaving platter. Raise the shaving platter

and remove it from its holder.

4. Dismantle the blade assembly by unscrewing the (2) blade fastening screws which will

allow you to remove the blade and blade holder.

5. Remove the shaving texture knob from the threaded shaft.

6. Unscrew the (2) screws fastening the blade assembly to the shaving platter and remove the

remaining parts.

7. Dismantle all of the blade assembly parts. Wash the parts in a mild detergent and water

solution. Towel dry all of the items after rinsing off the soap.

8. Reassemble the unit in reverse order.

MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

THE FOLLOWING SECTIONS OF THIS MANUAL ARE IN­TENDED ONLY FOR QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL WHO
ARE FAMILIAR WITH ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT. THESE ARE
NOT INTENDED FOR THE OPERATOR.

Adequate eye protection must be used when servicing this
equipment to prevent the possibility of injury.

Do NOT immerse the equipment in water.
Unplug your machine before servicing.

OILING THE MAIN DRIVE SHAFT AND CRANK

1. The main shaft must be kept lubricated at all times with Gold Medal food approved Gear

Lube (Part No. 1110). Do NOT use vegetable oil for lubrication; as the oil hardens, it will
prevent the main shaft from rotating.

2. Completely raise the main shaft and apply the supplied tube of food approved gear lube to

the teeth of the shaft. Apply oil to the center of the shaft with one small pass.

3. To oil the crank, remove the plastic dome and oil through the two small oiling holes located

on the top section of the casting. This will allow the handwheel shaft to rotate easily.

REPLACING WORN SHAVER BLADE

1. Remove the (2) wing bolts fastening the shaving platter to the mount casting. Remove the

platter from the mount casting and place it on a clean, level surface, flat side down.

2. Loosen the two screws fastening the shaver blade to the blade holder until the blade slips

out; remove the blade.

3. Turn the blade height adjustment knob so that the blade holder is in the lowest position.

Turn the knob back one full turn so the blade will go below the surface when completely
lowered.

4. Install new or re-sharpened blade exactly the same direction it was removed.

5. Blade should be installed with an even amount of space between the blade and groove.

6. Firmly tighten the two screws holding the clamp to the blade.

7. Place the blade platter back on the mount casting with the blade facing frontward.

8. Replace the (2) wing bolts, tighten firmly.

the Shaving Platter, make sure that the gap between the blade and rectangular slot in the
Platter is approximately 1/8” the entire length of the blade.

8. Firmly tighten the (2) screws for the shaving Base.

9. Before you tighten the Blade Clamp screws, make sure that the Blade is touching the table

top and is straight in the rectangular slot. Tighten the (2) screws with your screw driver.
