Sno-Konette
INSTALLATION
MACHINE DESCRIPTION
The Sno-Konette is an automatic shaver with a tremendous capacity. You will find that it keeps up with any demand; as soon as you put ice into the hopper, it is shaved into fine snow. The
Sno-Konette consists of the gooseneck, which houses the cutter head, the pusher handle, the motor, and the display case.
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
The Sno-Konette operates on 230 Volt, single phase, 50 cycle AC current. Models are available in a 12 volt DC version. Be sure that your electrical supply meets this requirement.
ICE REQUIREMENTS
The Sno-Konette can take ice cubes or block ice, if you break the block into pieces approximately 3 to 4 inches in size.
NOTE:
The ice will not enter the shaving chute if the pieces are too large. The design of the shaving chute automatically draws the ice against the blades. There is no need for manual effort.
MACHINE OPERATION
The Sno-Konette has seperate switches for the motor and the display lights. The motor toggle switch is located on the motor body. The switch for the display lights is located inside the case near the flourescent light.
After unpacking the Sno-Konette you should locate the pusher handle (packed in a seperate box).
Connect the pusher handle to the shaver body. Plug the power cord into the appropriate electrical outlet.
Turn on the motor and the display lights. If the bulbs do not light, rotate the flourescent tube to seat it into the starter. The flourescent bulb is a common 14 Watt tube, available at most retail stores.
TO OPERATE THE SNO-KONETTE
1. Switch the motor on.
2. Wait for the motor to come to full speed (a minute or so).
3. Fill the gooseneck to within an inch of the top with ice cubes or block ice (no larger than 3" to 4"). The larger the pieces, the better the snow.
4. Push the pusher handle down against the ice in the gooseneck. Apply firm and even pressure to make the best snow. Practice will allow you to gauge when to stop pressing.
This allows the ice to resettle against the cutterhead. You may find that you need to relieve the pressure two or three times in a cycle. Over pressing will stall the motor. In this case, simply relieve the pressure and try again. Too much pressure will result in snow that is coarse; too little pressure will make the snow mushy.
5. Be aware that under normal operating conditions the motor will become very warm. A surface temperature of 150º F [65,6º C] is normal.
NOTE: Never allow any foreign or metallic objects around the shaver area of the Sno-Konette.
Blades are often damaged by ice picks and scoops, and debris that may be in the ice.

INSTALLING NEW SHAVER BLADES
Inspect your equipment before replacing the blades. Use a flashlight to examine the blades in the shaver body. If the blades appear to be nicked or bent, then the blades should be replaced. Follow this procedure:
1. Unplug the main power supply cord from the electrical outlet.
2. Remove the cutterhead from the motor shaft by loosening the Allen head set screw between the motor and the gooseneck. Use the special Allen wrench that was supplied with your machine.
3. Remove the cutterhead. Pull the cutterhead off of the motor shaft and through the gooseneck. If the cutterhead is frozen onto the shaft, remove the hold down bolts on the motor. Pull the motor back, trapping the cutterhead against the inside of the goose neck, until the cutterhead disengages.
4. After removing the cutterhead, check the motor shaft for burrs and corrosion. Use a fine tooth file to remove the burrs and corrosion.
5. Remove the blades from the cutterhead. These blades may be resharpened, but it is far better to replace the old blades with a new set.
6. Position the new blades and insert screws until they are finger tight.
7. Set the blade thickness equal to a penny. (See illustration below.) Make sure that the height is even across the cutterhead.
8. Tighten the blade screws completely. Check the blades again with a penny to ensure the blades did not move while tightening the screws.
9. Replace the motor and cutterhead. Mount the motor using the hold down bolts. Insert the cutterhead through the gooseneck and onto the motor shaft. Press the cutterhead onto the motor shaft with the pusher handle, then move the cutterhead in another 1/8".
Check that the cutterhead is not rubbing against the back of the gooseneck and the blades are not touching the pusher handle.
10. Replace the set screw between the gooseneck and the motor.
NOTE:
Replace the shims that were between the motor base and the mounting surface. The motor shaft must be in alignment with the shaver drive shaft. Misalignment will cause the motor coupling to wear rapidly.
Height gage
(use penny)
Set top of blade flush with height gage, as shown.
