OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

The easiest way to make sure you have the right texture sugar with proper flavor and colors is to
use GOLD MEDAL FLOSSUGAR.  FLOSSUGAR gives good, rich colors and flavors, and does
not exceed the color limitations imposed by the Food and Drug Administration.  FLOSSUGAR
comes in sealed, plastic-coated cartons with handy pouring spouts for filling.  If you use your
own flavors in cotton candy, make sure they are not gum or starch based; these items burn on
the ribbons.

Heat Control Setting Test

1. Follow the guidelines described on page 1 for supplying power to machine.

2. With main switch still OFF, fill floss head.  Always fill it 90% full with sugar.  This 90% level is

necessary to obtain a balanced condition in the floss head.  DO NOT OVERFILL!  Excessive
vibration will occur if overfilled.  Before turning the power on, manually turn the head to balance
out the sugar. This will eliminate excessive vibration of the head.
Important:  NEVER  add sugar when motor is running.

3. Turn MAIN SWITCH and HEAT SWITCH  "ON."

4. Turn heat control knob clockwise to maximum setting to initiate the fastest possible warm up.

5. The machine should start making floss in a few seconds. When the unit starts making floss,

you must reduce the heat setting. Turn the heat control knob  counter clockwise to eliminate
smoking.  If you operate the unit at "start up" setting, you will "carbonize" the ribbon.

6. Once you find the ideal setting for the HEAT CONTROL, operate with the setting near this

position each time.

CAUTION

Never operate equipment for a prolonged period of time with the HEAT
CONTROL in a position that causes the sugar to smoke.This will result
in excessive carbonization of the ribbon (heat element). If you smell
burning sugar or see smoke, reduce the heat.

Keep foreign objects out of the head.

Floss head rotates at 3450 RPM.  Operator must keep hands and

face clear of floss head and keep spectators at a reasonable

distance.  For safety, always use a floss bubble.
