The oil is heated to high temperatures in a kettle provided with electric heating
elements to reach proper popping temperature. An operator is required in the vicinity
of the kettle only when handling corn or dumping popped corn from the kettle.
Neither of these operations requires direct contact with the kettle. Direct contact with
the hot oil, kettle, or heating elements could result in serious burns or scalds. Keep
away from the kettle whenever possible. Use the handle when dumping the kettle,
and use the provided cups when necessary to measure corn, oil and salt.
D.
As the popcorn pops, it will push the lid open and discharge into the cabinet. When the
corn finishes popping, the corn remaining in the kettle can be removed by holding the kettle
handle in your right hand and rotating down in a clockwise direction to dump the kettle.
E.
Your Mach 5 model Cretors popcorn popper is equipped for a pump, which, when properly
adjusted, automatically delivers the proper amount of oil to the popping kettle.
F.
A cornditioner is provided consists of a blower, heating element and thermostat. The
cornditioner circulates hot air through the corn stored in the popcorn case to keep the
product fresh and crisp.
G.
A two-stage filter system traps odor and smoke produced by popping corn. This is replaced
when the Ventless Hood option is supplied. The ventless hood is integrated into the
popping circuit, as such the popper will not operate if the hood is not functioning!
H.
One Pop Option only allows the kettle to pop one batch of corn at a time and then shut
down. The One Pop Option makes it impossible to leave a kettle heat turned on.
I.
With the One Pop Option, the kettle heat switch is turned on; however, the kettle will not
begin to heat until the One Pop button is pressed. When the One Pop button is pressed the
green indicator light will go on, the kettle will begin to heat, and the kettle heat indicator
light will turn on. The kettle will then heat until the temperature control opens at the end of
the popping cycle. When the temperature control opens at the end of the popping cycle
both the green one-pop and amber kettle heat indicators will shut off along with the kettle
heat. The kettle will not begin to heat again until the kettle has cooled and the One Pop
button is pressed.
J.
If the machine is equipped with an oil pump, and the pump switch is turned on, pressing
the One Pop button will begin the pumping cycle, as well as, the heat cycle. (When
cleaning the kettle and oil is not wanted, turn off the oil switch and the oil pump will not
run.)
L.
If the machine is equipped with the Salt/Sugar option, the operator moves the toggle
switch to either the salt or sugar position for desired corn type. The oil volume will be set
to the appropriate amount. In the salt position, the thermostat will turn off at the sugar
temperature but a timer will allow the heat to remain on until the corn has finished
popping.
K.
With the Digital Temperature Control, the operator can adjust the set point of the popping
cycle on the controller. There is no thermostat in side the kettle. Temperature of kettle will
also be displayed. To adjust, see service manual.
