SNO-KONES

The Snokonette Ice shaver Machines are very simple to operate, but in order to get best results, please read these instructions BEFORE you attempt to operate the machine.

The Snokonette machines consist of a motor, shaving unit and dispensing case. The motor has a toggle switch mounted on it. There is a separate switch on the light inside the case.

The standard motor is 110 volt, single phase, 60-cycle A.C. current. Also available are the 12-volt D.C. motor, and the 220-volt, single phase, 50 cycle A.C. current. Plug the power cord in; flip the motor switch to be sure it runs. Next, test the light and if it does not light, check the fluorescent tube, as sometimes this or the starter may become loose in shipment. The tube is a standard 14-watt fluorescent tube, available almost everywhere.

On the end of the motor shaft is mounted the cutterhead, which is inside of the shaver body (gooseneck). Going down into the shaver body is the pusher handle, which presses the ice against the revolving cutterhead, which shaves the ice. The pusher handle is packed in a small separate box, and must be connected to the shaver body.

OPERATING PROCEDURE

Start the motor and fill the gooseneck with ice cubes or block ice broken into pieces 3" to 4" in size. Fill to about an inch or so from the top, the larger the piece of ice the better the snow. Push the pusher handle down to press the ice against the cutterhead. A firm even pressure is all that is required, but sometimes you will find it better to relieve the pressure two or three times on the way down. This lets the ice rearrange itself, and you get a better bite. Do not force the handle too much as motor could be stalled. When too much pressure is necessary, relieve the handle, and then come down again.

DO NOT APLY PRESSURE ON HANDLE UNTIL MOTOR IS UP TO SPEED!!

Too much pressure on the pusher handle will make the ice come out coarse; too little pressure makes the ice mushy. In normal operations the motor gets warm - a surface temperature of 150 is normal.

Do not let any metal get down in the gooseneck, or you will ruin the blades. The blades are tempered steel, and will last a full season without replacing.
