Snowie BLOCK SHAVER Manuel utilisateur

Blade will not turn; snow will not come out

Check power is on and machine is

correctly plugged in or connected to

power (AC/DC)

Check switch is in the down or FOOT

position

Check foot pedal is securely plugged

into pressure switch port

Check that ice is not jammed too

tightly against blade (raise ice foot an

inch above ice and lower ice foot until

just touching ice)

Check the ice cabinet is securely

closed, completely down around black

rubber bumpers for the magnetic sen-

sor to be engaged

Check the wall circuit breaker has not

tripped (AC) or battery is depleted

(DC)

Check speed control dial is not off or

the fuse burned out

May have sheared motor gear keyway

needing replacement

Ice Block spins inside the Ice cabinet

The ice block is too small; replace with

ice block 6”x6”x12”

Ice block needs repositioning; raise

Ice Foot, adjust, and lower again

Ice Block cracks or shatters

Ice is conditioning too long (ice is out

of freeze too long and melting)

Use only taps on the Foot Pedal

Snow quality needs improvement

Best snow quality is from solid-clear

ice (water frozen over a couple days

versus compressed ice cube blocks)

Aslower actuator depressing speed

creates finer snow versus faster ac-

tuator speed for faster production

Too much pressure from actuators,

dial Speed Control slower

Ice needs to be colder

•

Too much or too little snow is shaved in a

single tap of the Foot Pedal

Tap the foot pedal quicker or hold a

little longer

Make an adjustment to the actuator

speed control inside machine (edge of

motor cabinet

Make an adjustment to the motor

off delay duration control dial inside

machine on the motor housing

Ice Foot is not aligned or level -- it is lower

on one side

Raise the Ice Foot all the way to the

top (using the front switch) until it

stops; this will realign the actuators,

then lower again until just touching ice

block

Snow has clogged the exit chute between

the Snow Catch flap and Ice Paddles

Using the provided ice chipper handle,

push the snow inwards towards the

blade paddles then tap on foot pedal

to shoot out excess snow

Tap the foot pedal quicker to prevent

the snow from accumulating in the exit

chute

Hold cup at the edge of the Snow

Shaper and use the Ice Flap

Blade Life

The Snowie Block

Shaver blade design

allows for blade ro-

tation to refresh the

cutting surface before

replacement.

After the blade rota-

tion has been com-

pleted for the full

surface, the blade will

need to be replaced

with a new blade and

the process repeated.

Clean stored blade

and tools thoroughly

before use to ensure

sanitary conditions.

BLADE CHANGE INSTRUCTIONS

Steps:

Snowie Block Shaver

SET UP

Set up and take down is easy to complete using the following steps:

[A] Place the Drip Pan on a counter or table edge so the drip hose is

not pinched and can easily drain. Place hose end in catch container or drain.

Set the Block Shaver on the Drip Pan. NOTE: It will tilt slightly forward.

[B] Grip the Ice Cabinet front cover and lift over the Rubber Stopper

[C] Raise Ice Cabinet front up and then tilt the top 90 degrees and slide it

horizontal to the back of the unit to secure it open.

TAKE DOWN

Raise the Ice Foot by placing the Switch in the LOAD position. Re-

move the ice. Wipe up excess ice and water from around the Drip

Pan. Allow all parts to air dry.

When transporting, use the Carry Handles to carry the Block Shaver

with the Ice Cabinet completely closed, the Foot Pedal removed,

and the power cord wrapped securely.

With the Ice Cabinet front open, press the Switch to LOAD

raising the Ice Foot. It will automatically stop at the top.

Once the Ice Cabinet cover is securely seated, stepping on the

Foot Pedal will spin the blade and shave snow from the ice.

[D]

Place the ice block in the Ice Cabinet so that all ice block corners are

resting flat on the blade. Make sure only ice is in the ice shaving chamber

(e.g., no bag clips etc.) otherwise, the blade can be damaged and will need to

be replaced.

[E] With the Ice Cabinet cover up so the magnetic sensor is not engaged,

flip the front Switch down (FOOT) and press the Foot Pedal to lower the Ice

Foot Actuators until the Ice Foot touches the ice block securely holding ice.

[F] Close the Ice Cabinet cover completely. Make sure the Ice Pressure

Flap holds the ice securely and that the Rubber Stoppers are inside the guide

holes. Press down as needed until securely seated. The block shaver will not

function until the magnetic sensor is engaged with the Ice Cabinet cover.

CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS

Snowie Block Shaver

Proper cleaning is an important task to ensure sanitary conditions are main-

tained.The materials required are: washing rags and scrub brush, soap so-

lution, rinse water, and sanitizing solution (bleach or other approved solution).

Correct cleaning steps for all surfaces include washing with soap, rinsing off

soap with plenty of clean water, sanitizing, and allowing to air dry. Carefully

inspect and clean the following:

External surfaces including:

Power wire

Foot pedal

Air pressure switch and hose

Drip pan and cup holder

Ice cabinet and covers

Snow exit chute

Snow catch flap

Drip pan hose

Remove drip pan hose and clean inter-

nal hose surface by pouring solutions

through the hose.

Dissemble Ice Cabinet for access to the

internal areas:

Ice foot

Actuators

Ice pressure flaps

Remove blade protective components

Blade housing

Paddle wheel

NOTE: The paddle wheel can be

removed by an abrupt horizontal

clock-wise blow with a rubber mallet (or

similar) to the flat paddle wheel edge.

This will allow the paddle wheel to be

unscrewed from the motor threads. Do

not unscrew bolts from Paddle Wheel.

Blade and Paddle Wheel

This section is for internal components.

Be careful that no internal components

are damaged or any wires loosened.

Lay the shaver on the back surface for

access to clean:

Shaver foot rests and support bars

Inside motor case surfaces

Motor

Speed control unit

Edges just inside case surface

•

Remove ice block, raise Ice Foot and then disconnect power source.

Once the cleaning and

sanitizing has been accom-

plished, reassemble the

shaver using the reverse

steps used to prepare the

shaver for cleaning.

Follow the blade change

instructions to ensure the

blade is correctly assem-

bled for safe use.

Ensure no parts are left

over after reassembling the

Shaver prior to powering up

for a test.

When cleaning inside the cabinet or making

adjustments, be careful with the internal

controls and wiring especially the mag-

netic switch. Extra care should be given

to prevent damage to any internal control

components or connections.

Lose wires or connections will impact the

Block Shaver operating performance.

Actuator speed and duration control adjust-

ments may be accomplished by the Owner.

Note: optimal performance may be impacted

by making changes and adjustments to

QUICK GUIDE

Snowie Block Shaver

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1. Aftersetupiscomplete,fliptheSwitchtotheFOOT(down)position,

plug the Foot Pedal in fully, and make sure there are no line kinks.

2. Using one hand, place the cup edge into the depression of the

Snow Shaper with the bottom of the cup towards you. Use your other

hand to pull the clear Snow Catch around bottom of the cup to direct

the snow into the cup.

Holding the cup too close to the chute will clog the exit chute

Holding the Snow Catch too loosely, will allow snow to escape

3. TaptheFootPedaltostartsnowproduction.AfterlettingofftheFoot

Pedal, the blade will quickly slow then stop.

As the blade spins, snow will be created

Steady pressure on the Foot Pedal will keep the snow flow-

ing. Adjust Speed Control for best snow quality versus pro-

duction speed (slower speed provides better snow)

4. When the cup is full of snow, use the Snow Shaper to form the

Snowie topandtheedgeoftheSnowShapertoscrapeofftheexcess

snow from around the rim of the cup.

5. Do not compressthesnowtoo tightlyintheSnowShaper;aspoon

or spoon straw should slide easily to the bottom of the cup

6. To flavor the Snowie, pour syrup on the top in one spot until it is

visible at the edge. At this point, you will know the syrup has been

distributed evenly.

Syrup will continue to mix for a few minutes after being poured

An 8 oz. Snowie will need approximately 3 oz. of syrup

•

The Foot Pedal has two stages when depressed: 1) blade rotation

(motor on), and 2) actuator lowering for shaving. Careful pressure

control can maintain blade rotation without the actuator lowering.

Duringoperation,snowispropelledthroughthechutetoeasily fillthecup.

The longer the foot pedal is fully depressed, the more the actuators de-

press the ice on the blade to shave snow. Fully letting up the Foot Pedal

results in the spinning blade slowing until it stops.
