Long Popping Cycles
(Longer than 4 minutes for

If the machine is operated on low voltage, this
could cause the kettle not to reach the proper
operating temperature. Check with a qualified
electrician.
B.
Inadequate Supply Lines

Inadequately sized electrical supply lines or
use of extension cord, in addition to being a
fire hazard, would also prevent the kettle from
reaching the proper operating temperature.
Check with a qualified electrician.
C.
Inferior Corn
C.
Inferior quality corn would result in longer
popping cycles. Use only top quality hybrid
popcorn from reputable suppliers. Even then,
if you let your corn pick up moisture or dry
out, your popping cycles will be slow.

Rotating
A.
Kettle Motor Switch

inspection/repair.

the agitator assembly.)

If the kettle agitator shaft is not rotating,

between the kettle bottom and the stir blade;
it should be 1/32” (use a dime). To adjust,
reference the Agitator Set Collar Adjustment
section.
