OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
CONTROLS AND THEIR FUNCTIONS
LIGHT SWITCH
Flipping this lever to the “ON” position lights all the lights on your popper.
WARMER SWITCH
Flipping the lever of this switch to the “ON” position energizes the blower, which will freshen any prepopped
corn you may have left over.
KETTLE HEAT SWITCH
Moving the lever of this switch to the “ON” position starts the exhaust blower and the agitator in the kettle.
The purpose of this agitator is to keep the raw kernels on the bottom of the kettle and to prevent the popped
corn from jamming.
FUSES
The ASTRO POP is equipped with two 20-amp fuses. These protect the entire machine. If a fuse blows out
continually, check for loose wires, short circuits, etc.
NOTE: THE FOLLOWING CONTROLS ARE ON FLOOR MODEL ASTRO POP POPPERS ONLY FOR
SPECIAL COUNTER MODEL POPPERS EQUIPPED WITH THE BUCKET SEASONING PUMP.
OIL SYSTEM MASTER SWITCH
Moving the lever of this switch to the “ON” position energizes the electrical circuit of the bucket-seasoning
pump. It also supplies the heat element of the pump with 40 watts of electrical power. This “LOW HEAT”
will usually keep the oil liquid at average room temperatures. When this switch is in the “ON” position, the red
pilot light next to it will be on.
OIL PUMP BUTTON
After the oil has melted, pressing the red “OIL PUMP BUTTON” for a few seconds will start an automatic
pumping cycle, which delivers the proper amount of oil to the kettle. The oil pump pilot light will come on, and
remain on while the automatic pumping cycle takes place. When the pilot light comes on, you may release
the “OIL PUMP BUTTON”.
TIMER SWITCH
This switch on the bucket seasoning pump control box determines the length of time the heat element of the
bucket pump is at “HIGH HEAT”. This “HIGH HEAT” is produced by 500 watts of electrical power. Its
purpose is to melt the oil quickly. Whenever the timer switch is “ON”, the pilot light above it will be on.
POPPING CORN (FLOOR MODELS)
1. Turn “LIGHTS SWITCH” AND “WARMER SWITCH” ON.
