120 VOLT MACHINES

Machines with nameplate stamped 120V,
are equipped for operation on 120 Volt, 2
wire, 60 Cycle AC single phase service
and must be connected to a separate 15
Amp circuit with a 3 wire grounded,
polarized receptacle.

GENERAL OPERATING

INSTRUCTIONS

THOUROUGHLY INSPECT YOUR

MACHINE ON ARRIVAL

We do everything in our power to insure
delivery of your machine in perfect
condition. However there are instances in
which the unit may be damaged in transit.
In the event your unit is damaged in
transit, have the transportation company
make the necessary notations on your
freight bill or delivery receipt. Immediately
report this damage to the dealer from
whom you purchased the machine. The
dealer will advise proper handling
instructions. If damage is not discovered
until after delivery has been made, notify
the transportation company immediately.
However, in each instance, request an
inspection report to cover whatever damage
has occured in transit.

INSTALLATION

Each machine has been properly wired
and inspected at the Factory for operation
on the Voltage and type of Current
specified on the nameplate.

CAUTION

Do not connect to any other type of

current or the machine will be seriously

damaged.

We strongly recommend installation by a
Licensed Electrician. The guarantee of this
machine as covered by the Warranty Card
does not apply if an improper installation
has been made.

CAUTION

The motor air intake and exhaust holes
located on top of the machine must be
clear of any obstruction.

DO NOT COVER THESE AIR VENT HOLES
as serious motor damage will result.

Check to insure the installation of the
Corn Drawer before the Popping cycle is
started.

With all switches in the "OFF" position,
proceed in the following sequence to Pop
Corn:

1.) Turn "ON" the Corn Warming switch.

This switch controls the Bottom heating
element, the Top heating lamp and the
Sign diplay lamps of the Sign Lighted

models.

2.) Turn "ON" the Kettle switch. This

switch controls the Kettle heating
element. The Red pilot light is provided to
indicate when the Kettle switch is "ON".
Allow six to seven minutes to pre-heat the
Kettle. The Kettle heating element is
thermostatically controlled. Thermostat
adjustments should not be necessary as it
has been preset at the factory for the
correct popping temperature.

3.) Turn "ON" the Agitator Motor switch.

The Motor should always be running
when there is corn in the Kettle. This will
prevent scorching or burning of corn.

GENERAL OPERATING

INSTRUCTIONS - continued

4.) A Corn and Seasoning measuring cup

is supplied with your machine. Pour a
level measuring cup of Oil (2 ounces) in
Kettle. Add a leveled measuring cup of raw
corn (6 ounces) and 1/2 Teaspoon of
Popcorn Salt. Vary the amount of salt and
oil to suit taste. If desired, salt may be
added adfter the Corn is popped.

5.) When the Corn stops popping, dump

the Kettle immediately by turning the
handle clockwise approximately 90
degrees to release latch. Recharge as
quickly as possible. Screen out unpopped
kernels over the perforated section of the
Corn pan.

6.) Turn the Kettle "OFF" when the

desired amount of popping is completed.

WARNING

Do not leave the Kettle and Motor switch
"ON" when the machine is not in use. Do
not immerse the Kettle in water or allow
water to come in contact with the Heating
element.
Popping Corn in dry kettle is not
recommended.
Do not connect machine to Direct Current,
as this unit is designed to operate on
Alternating Current only!

MAINTENANCE

Keep The Popping Unit Clean

After each popping period, wipe clean the
Kettle inside and out while it is warm.
This is important because if seasoning
and salt are not thoroughly removed, a
carbonized material will form. This
condition not only lowers popping
efficiency and causes excessive smoking,
but could damage the unit. For retaining
the high lustre on the stainless steel
Kettle shell and lids, use a non-abrasive
standard stainless steel cleaner when the
Kettle is cold. Use a damp cloth and a
warm mild soap solution to clean the glass
and clear plastic surfaces.

To remove Kettle:

Turn "OFF" the Kettle motor switches.
Disconnect the Twist Lock Cap at the end
of the Kettle conduit, turn Kettle handle
clockwise 90 degrees to unlatch the
Kettle, hold the Kettle and pull out the
hinge pin. The Kettle can now be removed
from unit. Use asbestos gloves to remove a
hot Kettle. DO NOT PLACE THE KETTLE
IN WATER, as this will damage the
electrical assembly.

To change Sign Display Lamps (on Sign
Lighted Models):

Turn "OFF" all switches. Unscrew 2 sheet
metal screws on the Rear side top (holding
switch and pilot light panel) and 4 screws
on the top. Cautiously take the top off.
Cahnge bulb(s) and reassemble the top
onto the frame. Tighten all six screws
securely. WARNING! Use only inside
Frosted Bulb. Wattage per label on the
surface of the Top Liner. By Authorized
Personnel Only.

MAINTENANCE and REPAIRS

Contact the Factory or one of its
representatives or a local Service
Company for Service or Maintenance
required.
