INITIAL SETUP
After unpacking your machine:
NOTE: If your machine came with a cart, skip forward to page 10 and complete the cart assembly before completing this portion of the setup.

1.  Wipe the pan and floss head with a clean, soft cloth moistened with water. Dry thoroughly. IMPORTANT!Before any cleaning or maintenance, be sure that your unit’s Power Switch is OFF and the machine is UNPLUGGED.

2.  If you are using the machine without a cart, ensure that you have chosen a safe location for operation and that you place it on a stable, sturdy surface. This machine operates at high speeds. STABILITY IS ESSENTIAL FOR SAFETY.

3. Be sure that your electrical supply matches the requirements of this machine and that a properly grounded outlet is available. NEVER TAMPER OR MODIFY THE GROUNDING PIN OR CORD. Avoid the use of extension cords and 3-prong adapters.

4. Thoroughly familiarize yourself with this manual, all machine components and the safety precautions before operating this machine. Assemble your cotton candy machine securely by checking that the pan is locked into place using the clamping brackets (See Step 5 below). Ensure that your machine is plugged into a dedicated, grounded outlet and you are not wearing any loose jewelry, clothing etc. (see page 3 for further precautions).
   

5. To attach the floss pan to the motor body assembly, first place the cleaned pan over the floss head as shown in Figure J. Next, align the brackets on the bottom of the pan with the bracket clamps as shown in Figure K. Finally, hook the metal rings of the clamps over the lips of the brackets and close the clamps into place securely (Figure L). Repeat for the other side of the machine, securely fastening all four clamps and brackets.

OPERATING PROCEDURES

Cotton Candy Machine Controls & Operation

1.  Turn the Power Switch to ON by pushing down on the power switch (Figure M). Observe the stability of your machine. Check for excessive vibration and if you notice this, turn the Power Switch to OFF, unplug the machine and make sure that your working surface is level. Check to see that the floss head is sitting levelled and evenly.
2.  To heat up the machine, turn the Heater Switch (Figure N) to ON. Heat up the machine for 2-4 minutes; the floss head will heat to a temperature of around 445oF, so take care to keep body parts and flammable materials away when the machine is in operation. Subsequent batches will not require a preheating.
3.  After machine is hot, add 1 scoop (with the sugar scoop provided) of cotton candy floss mixture into the spinner head (Figure P). CAUTION! FLOSS HEAD IS SPINNING AT EXTREMELY HIGH SPEEDS. DO NOT TOUCH THE SPINNING HEAD WITH YOUR HAND OR THE SCOOP! DO NOT OVERFILL. OVERFILLING CAN LEAD TO EXCESSIVE SMOKING.
4. Within 5-45 seconds (depending on how hot the floss head is before pouring), cotton candy floss will appear (Figure Q, also see pages 9 & 10 for cone-building instructions). Make sure to spin the floss head until all sugar is gone. VERY IMPORTANT! FAILURE TO SPIN OFF EXCESS SUGAR COULD LEAD TO SMOKING AND/OR BURNED SUGAR DURING NEXT RUN CYCLE. Repeat Steps 3-4 to continue spinning floss; once the machine is warmed up, no preheating is needed.
5. To clean the floss head, TURN MACHINE OFF, UNPLUG AND ALLOW TO COOL COMPLETELY. THEN WIPE WITH A CLEAN MOISTENED WARM SOFT CLOTH. CLEAN MACHINE AFTER EVERY USE.

WARNING! DO NOT run water through the spinning hot floss head to clean! A stem jet could be created that could cause burns or other more serious injuries. The risk of electrical shock is also a possibility when applying water to a running electrical device such as the Canadian Flosser Cotton Candy Machine.

MAKING COTTON CANDY

Cotton Candy Sugar
You may use any pre-mixed commercial cotton candy floss in your machine. Pre- mixed preparations are convenient to use and commonly packaged in sealed containers designed for easy pouring. Alternately, you may choose to add a floss concentrate to high quality sugar to produce your own mixture. Please be sure to use high quality sugar with no additives as these may clog your machine and require higher heat settings.

IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS!

DO NOT allow untrained personnel, the public and especially children to operate or have direct physical contact with the machine. DESIGNED FOR COMMERCIAL USE ONLY. All users must be 18 years or older.

CAUTION! Spinning floss head operates at 2750 RPM. All operators MUST keep their body well away when the machines is in operation. Keep jewelry, long hair, hands and face
away from the floss head to avoid serious injury.
CAUTION! Spinning floss head is HOT! Do make contact with the head immediately after use! DO NOT TOUCH THE PLUG WITH WET HANDS! ALWAYS wear protective eyewear.

USE ONLY COTTON CANDY FLOSS CONES TO COLLECT SUGAR FLOSS. USING HANDS OR OTHER UTENSILS COULD RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY OR EVEN DEATH. PLASTIC CONES ARE INCLUDED FOR YOUR CONVENIENCE. PAPER CONES ARE AVAILABLE AT WWW.POPCORNMACHINE.CA.

Cotton Candy Production
TO MAKE CONES:

1.  Follow the instructions on page 9 to create floss. Grip floss cone by the small tapered end and insert the larger end into the spun mat of the floss. IMPORTANT! Take care when cone building to keep jewelry or loose clothing away from the spinning floss head. Floss head will be hot!
2.  Twirl the floss onto the cone in a counter-clockwise direction.
3.  Lift off and roll the floss onto the cone to the desired size. If you are using floss bags, insert the cotton candy cone into the bag floss end first and remove floss from cone by gripping the exterior of the bag to pull floss away.
4.  Cones may be stored in the holes of the cart shelf or in the drawer of the machine. Be sure to follow the procedures in this manual, paying particular attention to overfilling precautions and proper procedures for clearing excess sugar from the spinning head and end of production practices.
5.  Experiment with multiple colours to attract customers and familiarize yourself with floss production to improve cone build-up time for your patrons. Consider using bags in addition to comes to ensure that you have cotton candy on hand for larger crowds.
6.  CLEAN MACHINE AFTER EVERY USE. TURN MACHINE OFF, UNPLUG AND ALLOW TO COOL COMPLETELY, THEN WIPE WITH A CLEAN MOISTENED
