   • Extension cords can be used if care is exercised in their use.
   • The marked electrical rating of the cord or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.
   • When using a longer cord or extension cord, make sure that the cord does not drape over a countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on or tripped over unintentionally.

4. The manufacturer does not recommend using this machine in countries that do not support 120V AC even if a voltage adapter, transformer, or converter is in use. Position the appliance as close to the outlet as possible to prevent injury due to tripping over cord.

Locking Main Unit to Storage Compartment

HOW TO OPERATE

Before first use, clean the inside of the unit by wiping with a moist, non- abrasive sponge, towel or cloth and then wipe with a non-abrasive dry towel.

1. First, find a flat surface near an electrical outlet before starting. Make sure your cord is away from any water source. It is acceptable to use an extension cord if needed.
2. Before plugging in the unit, add ice cubes by removing the clear lid from the Main Unit of your SNOW CONE CART. To remove the lid, simply push the release button on the lid, lift and remove.
3. Plug in the appliance while switch is flipped to OFF position.
4. When ice cubes are ready, place cubes in the shaving unit while allowing enough room for the lid to be placed back on the unit easily. Never force it shut.
5. Return the clear lid to the unit and turn the power button to the ON position. This will activate the unit to begin shaving. Please note that the ice will not shave unless the lid is properly secured.
6. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until you have shaved the amount of ice desired. Turn unit OFF and then unplug when you are finished.
7. Once you have the desired amount of ice, open the housing door on the Main Unit to retrieve your ice and create your favorite snow-based treats!

HELPFUL TIPS

Ice

For optimal ice shaving results, ice cubes should sit out of the freezer, in a bowl, for about 10 minutes before putting them into the shaving unit. If ice is frosty in appearance, it is too hard to shave. When ice is clear and wet to the touch, then it is ready to shave.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE

1. Make sure appliance is turned off and unplugged before cleaning.
2. Open the housing door to clean and dry the inside of the unit using a slightly damp, non-abrasive cloth or sponge.
3. Wipe the outside of the unit using a slightly damp, non-abrasive cloth or sponge, then dry with a non-abrasive towel.
4. The shaving unit and clear lid are dishwasher safe. To take out the shaving unit, refer to steps on page 11.

Replacing the Blade

When your SNOW CONE CART blade becomes dull after a long period of normal use, replace it with the included Replacement Blade and Tool. Should you need additional blades, you can order them directly from the manufacturer.

The blade is VERY sharp. Use EXTREME CAUTION when handling.

Steps to Replace the Blade

1. Remove the Ice Tray and insert the Disassembly Tool (K) over the three arms of the Spinner.
2. Once the Disassembly Tool (K) is properly inserted, twist counterclockwise (as the arrow shows) and lift the Spinner out.
3. Carefully press the tabs of the Blade Housing inward and lift up to release.
4. Twist off the Blade Cap and, using extreme caution, remove the Blade Cartridge. Insert the replacement Blade Cartridge, and reverse the above steps to reassemble. USE EXTREME CAUTION. BLADE IS VERY SHARP.
5. When replacing the Spinner, reverse all steps and make sure to lock Spinner using the Disassembly Tool.
