Sugar for Your Candy
Ready to Use Flossugar
Our ready to use Flossugar is the preferred sugar for your new cotton candy machine; however
100% pure cane or beet sugar will do just fine. Our Flossugar gives you good rich colors, and
great flavors, too. It is packed in handy half-gallon sealed cartons, with an E-Z pour spout for
filling your machine. Flossugar comes in many flavors, and you can easily change flavors for
greatest variety, and best sales.
Mix Your Own
If you want to mix your own, use our Flossine®, and please follow our directions. If you want a
deeper color, slightly dampen the mixed sugar. Use a tablespoon of water per five pounds of
sugar, sprinkle water over sugar, and mix well. DO NOT USE EXCESS COLOR! Too much color
will ruin the element on your machine and could create a bitter taste to the candy. There is a
limit as to how dark you can make cotton candy. That’s because cotton candy is 98% air, and we
cannot color the air.
Sugar Considerations
Today 99% of the sugar manufactured is extra fine granulated, which does have some small
particles which can slip thru the ribbons without being melted. If this becomes objectionable, you
can seek out medium coarse or sanding sugars. The larger crystal size will require a little more
heat to melt.
Read the label on the bag of sugar, today we see some free flowing sugars for restaurants. Free
flowing sugars contain cornstarch which will burn onto your element/band clogging them
rapidly. We have also seen some off-brand sugars that are a blend of sugar and dextrose or corn
syrup. This product makes very poor cotton candy. Please make sure you get good sugar for
your cotton candy machine.

Machine Operation
Floss Machine Operation (3030 Breeze)
WARNING
Floss head rotates at high speeds. Operator MUST keep hands and face
clear of the floss head to avoid injury. Operator must wear eye protection.
Keep all spectators at a reasonable distance, and use a Floss Bubble for
added customer protection.
015_062714
1. Follow the guidelines described in the Electrical Requirements Section for supplying
power to machine.
2. The Heat Switch and the Motor & Master Switch should be in the OFF position.
3. With the spinner head stopped, pour flossugar into the spinner head. Always fill it
90% full with sugar. This 90% level is necessary to obtain a balanced condition in the
floss head. DO NOT OVERFILL!
IMPORTANT: NEVER add sugar when motor is running.
4. Turn the Motor & Master Switch ON. Wait 10 seconds, then turn Heat Switch ON.
5. Turn the Heat Control Knob clockwise to maximum setting to initiate the fastest
possible warm-up.
6. The machine should start making floss in about 30 seconds. When unit starts making
floss, reduce the heat setting. Turn the Heat Control counter-clockwise to eliminate
smoking. If the unit is operated at the “startup” setting it will carbonize the element.
CAUTION
Never operate the equipment for a prolonged period of time with the HEAT
CONTROL in a position that causes the sugar to smoke. This will result in
excessive carbonization of the heat element. If you smell burning sugar or
see smoke, reduce the heat.
030_070914
7. Once the ideal Heat Control setting is found, operate with the setting near this position
each time.
8. When the floss head needs to be refilled with sugar, or to stop the machine, turn the
Heat Switch OFF and allow the motor to run for at least 1 minute to “cool down” the
floss head, then turn the Motor & Master Switch OFF.
IMPORTANT: Failure to cool down the floss head could result in leaving melted sugar
in the floss head. If the motor is restarted, this melted sugar will exit the floss
head and could cause burns.
In addition, sugar left in the floss head may smoke or cause carbon build up.
When completing operation for the day (or any prolonged period), follow the instructions
in the Shutdown Procedure/Cleaning and Care section of this manual.

Making Floss
Pick a cone, if it sticks in the stack of cones, twist it off the stack.
CAUTION
Keep hands away from spinning head!
031_021914
Hold an inch or two of the pointed end of a cone between two fingers and a thumb. With a light
flicking action, roll cone in the web of floss building up in the pan. Lift the cone up with the ring
of floss attached and rotate the cone to wrap the floss. DO NOT roll floss while the cone is inside
the pan. This will pack the floss too tightly. See steps 1 thru 8 shown below.
If the floss fails to stick to the cone, pass the cone near the spinner head to pick up a “starter” of
melted sugar. Lift the cone out of the pan and wrap the floss with a "figure eight" movement of
the hand. This leaves giant pockets and makes the final product appear larger. Make sure room
humidity is not too high, or product will be "heavy".
1. Grip cone as shown.
2. Break into web of
floss with the cone.
3. Wind the sugar onto
the cone.
4. Lift web of floss from
the pan and roll onto
the cone.
5. 6. 7. 8.
WARNING
•DO NOT PUT HANDS OR OBJECTS IN ROTATING SPINNER HEAD.
•DO NOT FILL SPINNER HEAD WITH SUGAR WHILE IT IS ROTATING.
•WEAR EYE PROTECTION.
•DO NOT PUT HANDS NEAR ROTATING SPINNER HEAD.
•USE FLOSS CONE TO COLLECT COTTON CANDY.

Floater Adjustments
In operation, the floss will collect on the FLOSS STABILIZER. If the floss collects “low” on the
stabilizer, twist the front (leading) edge of the leather floaters down. You get more lift and the
floss will collect higher.
Form leather floaters as shown below. This creates a lifting action to float the floss higher on the
wall of the floss pan.

Shut Down Procedure/
Care and Cleaning
Shut Down Procedure
1. When completing operation for the day (or any prolonged period), run the floss head
completely empty of sugar.
2. Turn the Heat Control dial to the maximum position, and allow the machine to run
approximately 3-4 minutes. This will burn any excess sugar out of the floss head, and
prevent any excess carbon build-up.
3. Turn the Heat Switch OFF and allow the motor to run for 1-2 minutes to “cool down”
the floss head.
4. Turn the Motor & Master Switch OFF and allow the motor to come to a COMPLETE stop.
5. NEVER put water in the floss head.
Care and Cleaning
DANGER
Machine must be properly grounded to prevent electrical shock to personnel.

Good sanitation practice demands that all food preparation equipment be cleaned regularly (only
use non-toxic, food grade cleaners). A clean looking, well-kept machine is one of the best ways of
advertising your product.
Follow the directions below to clean and sanitize the unit each day after use.
1. Unplug the machine and wait for the floss head to cool down to room temperature.
2. Make sure to clean all pans/accessories in order to sanitize them before each use.
3. Wipe all surfaces with a clean, damp cloth.
4. Wipe the stainless steel parts with a clean cloth and cleaner designed for stainless
steel, such as Gold Medal Watchdog Stainless Cleaner (Item No. 2088).
DO NOT use oven cleaners or abrasive materials as they will damage parts of machine.

Floss Band and Element
Disassembly and Removal of Floss Band
1. Unplug the machine from the power source and allow floss head to cool completely.
2. Remove all sugar from the head of the machine before disassembling. If needed,
carefully turn the machine on its side and shake the sugar out.
3. Remove the four spinner cap retainer screws and spinner cap. In some cases, the
sugar has caused the cap and band to stick together. Applying gentle pressure with the
heel of the hand should free the parts for removal.
4. Remove the nylon acorn nut, lock nut, and terminal guard.
5. Remove the retaining screws which fasten the element lead wires to the terminals
(use a 1/4” (9.5mm) nut driver); then remove the band and element. (See next page
for reconnecting element leads.)
6. If there is excessive sugar build-up, run hot water over band and element until the
sugar dissolves (be careful to keep element leads dry). When the sugar has been
removed, allow the band and element to air dry overnight.
Note: For models with separate heat and motor switches, the best way to dry the floss
head after reassembly is to spin it dry for 10 minutes WITHOUT HEAT (use
motor switch only).

Troubleshooting
Issue
Possible Cause
Solution
Low Production
A. Excessive carbon on the
element.
A. Follow the instructions for removing and
cleaning band and element (see Floss Band
and Element section).
B. Heat Control
B. Adjust the Heat Control Knob to increase
production. If this does not correct the issue,
have qualified service personnel check the
heat control for correct voltage output. A
faulty heat control will need to be replaced by
Qualified Service Personnel.
C. Low line voltage.
C. Check the wall line voltage (where the
machine is plugged in), at least 220 VAC is
required for the machine to generate floss
correctly. A primary reason for low
production and poor equipment performance
is low line voltage. Have a qualified electrician
check the line voltage and add new lines for all
the various equipment plugged into the
electric circuit if there is not enough current
for the requirement listed on the equipment
nameplate.
The use of extension cords is not
recommended due to safety concerns, and
may cause sacrificed and/or reduced
performance. If the use of an extension cord
cannot be avoided then be sure it is no longer
than 10 to 12 ft., and is at least 1.5mm
2
wire.
D. Foreign objects in the
spinner head.
D. Foreign objects in the head assembly can short
out an element or cause an out-of-balance
condition.
Excessive Smoke
A. Heat Control setting.
A. After warm up, equipment should make good
floss. Never let the machine operate with the
heat so high it produces smoke or you can
smell burned sugar. This condition quickly fills
the element with carbonized sugar.
If adjusting the heat control (and checking the
other options listed) does not correct the
issue, have Qualified Service Personnel check
the heat control.
B. Product mixture.
B. Check the product mixture being used. For best
results, use nothing with a cornstarch base.
C. Excessive sugar buildup.
C. Check the band for excessive sugar buildup
and remove if needed as described in the Floss
Band and Element section of this manual.

The Breeze Export Model No. 3030-01-000
Page 17
gmpopcorn.com
Issue
Possible Cause
Solution
Excessive Vibration
A. Packing material not
removed.
A. If the equipment is new, check that all packing
materials were removed from the machine.
B. Lock-N-Go Handles not in
operating position.
B. Verify that the Lock-N-Go Handles have been
rotated into the operating position.
C. Low on sugar.
C. Refill the floss head; this will normally
eliminate excessive vibration. When adding
sugar to the floss head, always fill it 90% full
to obtain a balanced condition in the head and
eliminate vibration. Do not add sugar with
the motor running!
D. Foreign objects or sugar
lumps.
D. Run the sugar completely out, then check for
foreign objects or sugar lumps in the head
assembly.
E. Stretched or uneven
suspension springs.
E. If the suspension springs are stretched or
uneven this can cause unwanted vibrations.
Have Qualified Service Personnel replace if
needed.
Lock-N-Go Handles are
Hard to Rotate
A. Clamping Cam friction.
A. If handles are hard to move, Qualified Service
Personnel may need to apply Petro Gel (Gold
Medal Item No. 1110), or a food safe lubricant,
to the top surface of the Clamping Cam to
reduce friction where the cam contacts the
bell housing.
