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 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 risks and the ice shaver’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.
4. If the optional 1078HD Chute is attached to your machine, follow the installation instructions provided
with the 1078HD Chute before operation.
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.
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.
