Ice Shaver

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Make sure the hopper is clear of obstructions, then secure a supply of ice (either blocks, cubes
or rough crushed ice) and fill the hopper. Ice chunks should be no larger than a baseball for
maximum capacity (large ice chunks take more time to shave).

1. Move the toggle power switch into the “ON” position to illuminate the lights.

2. Fill the hopper with ice. Be careful not to overfill.

3. Close the hopper lid. The unit will not operate if the lid is not completely closed.

4. Push the momentary motor switch.

CAUTION

Metal or foreign objects will ruin the shaving blades instantly.
Make sure that both the hopper and ice supply are free of debris
including: Ice picks, scoops, nails, nuts, bolts, etc.

Safety Cut-Off Switch

Your Shavatron is equipped with a safety cut-off switch. With the momentary motor switch
pressed on, the machine will not operate with the hopper lid open. This is to prevent accidental
injury while loading or cleaning the hopper. Be careful not to overfill the hopper to the extent
that the hopper lid stays open. The lid must be closed and you must press the momentary motor
switch in order for the machine to operate.

Never put your fingers or any object into the shaver body while the unit
is running. Since you can be seriously hurt by not following these
instructions, Gold Medal does not assume any liability for injury due to
careless handling or operation of this unit.
