ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
Model No. 2257GA & Model No. 2257GAD –120 Volts, 2.15 Amps, 340 Watts, 60 Hz
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. The enclosed oil dispenser rolls to any location where it can be connected to a popcorn machine.
Access will be required to the front of this area allowing sufficient clearance to clean and maintain
the pump and add or remove boxes of topping.
2. Attach the heated-line tubing from the unit to the aluminum tube on the popcorn machine with the
hose clamp provided.
3. Plug the six-prong power cable from the popcorn machine into the back of the unit.
4. Load two boxes of pre-heated topping into the unit. Gold Medal’s Backroom Warmer, Item #2262
(4 Shelves) or Item # 2260 (2 Shelves), may be purchased for pre-heating the topping. Remove the
cardboard cutout on the box to expose the quick-disconnect fitting.
5. Attach the quick-disconnect fittings on the end of the tubing, to the fittings on the box of topping.
The end fitting should attach to the upper box and the middle fitting should attach to the lower box.
6. The unit is now ready for use.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Turn the OIL SYSTEM MASTER switch, located on the popcorn machine, to the ON position. This
will start the heater/blower that will maintain cabinet temperature and provide power for the
pump.
2. Pressing the red OIL DISPENSE button located on the popcorn machine will dispense the oil into
the kettle. If this is the first time the unit has been used, it may take a minute to completely fill the
tube and dispense oil.
E-Z SET TIMER OPERATION
This machine is equipped with a programmable timer for setting the amount of oil needed for popping
popcorn. Holding the red Oil Dispense push button down while turning on the Oil System Master
switch; while continuing to hold the red oil dispense button for five seconds puts the unit in the
program mode. The oil system master switch light will start to blink off and on indicating that the
timer is in the program mode. Hold a cup under the oil line and then use the manual mode of operation
to prime the oil line. After priming the oil line, use a measuring cup and the automatic mode of
operation to set the correct oil amount.
1. Automatic Operation
When in the program mode press and release the oil Dispense switch to start the oil flowing.
When the correct amount of oil has been dispensed into the measuring cup push the oil
Dispense switch to stop the oil flow. The oil amount can be “topped off” by pushing the oil
Dispense switch on/off as many times as needed to finalize the oil amount. Turning the Oil
System Master switch off and then back on puts the unit in the regular mode. The unit will now
dispense the “programmed” amount of oil when the oil Dispense switch is pushed. The oil light
will light only when the oil pump is on.
2. Manual Operation
When in the program mode, immediately turn off the Oil System Master switch; turning the Oil
System Master back on puts the timer in the manual mode of operation. The unit will now dispense
oil only while the oil Dispense switch is pushed.
NOTE:
2257GAD has a dual oil timer. Select salt popping to program the salt oil time. Select sweet
popping to program the sweet oil time.
For Flexi-Pop machines, select one of the load settings. Program the time and then select the
second load setting, program the time for that setting.

Preventing and Troubleshooting Oil Delivery Issues
It may occur at times that the Bag-In-Box oil pumping system does not deliver oil to the kettle, or delivers it in
incorrect amounts. This section is intended to list the most common causes of these problems, and the procedures
necessary to prevent and, if necessary, correct them.
Oil Temperature –Coconut oil becomes a solid at temperatures above the average room temperature.
For this reason, it is necessary to ensure that the oil has been permitted to come to working temperature before
attempting to pump it through the system. If the machine has not been used for several days, the oil master switch
should be turned on the night before it is expected that the machine will be used. For machines which are in daily
use, even if not round the clock, leave the oil master switch on at all times and keep the base cabinet doors closed to
prevent the oil from becoming solid.
Bag-In-Box Mounting –Because the bag’s dispensing connector is offset toward the bottom of the box, to permit
free oil flow and complete emptying of the oil from the bag, the box should never be mounted upside down. Most
boxes supplied will be clearly marked as to which side should be up during dispensing. (Note that in some cases the
box is intended to be stored with one side up, but to be turned and used in dispensing with the other side up.) Be
sure to double check to ensure that the box is mounted in the correct dispensing orientation.
You may encounter boxes with no clear markings to indicate dispensing orientation. A reliable guide in this case
(and also for those boxes which are marked), is the direction that the top side flap of the corrugated box is folded.
When the box is properly mounted for dispensing, the top side flap will fold down from the top edge of the box, so
that if one were to attempt to separate the flap it would be necessary to pull up from the bottom edge. See the
illustrations below.

Bag and Hose Connector Issues –There are two different types of dispensing nozzles employed on the Bag-In-Box
oils, as well as two different types of connectors installed on the oil pumping system hoses which connect to the
bag’s dispensing nozzles. The particular combination of connectors in your system will determine the appropriate
method for connecting the Bag-In-Box oil bag to the system hosing. These combinations will be illustrated and
explained in the following section.
Bag Dispensing Nozzle –Blue Insert Bag dispensing Nozzle –White Insert
Blue Insert Bag Nozzle with
Blue/White Hose Connector
White Insert Bag Nozzle with
Blue/White Hose Connector
1. With the blue collar on the hose
connector retracted toward
crosspiece, slide hose connector
shell onto bag nozzle.
2. Holding the bag nozzle behind
the flange, slide the blue collar
forward to lock the hose connector
onto the bag nozzle.
3. Connector shown with shell
correctly engaged and collar
forward in lock position.
4. Place fingers behind flange and
use thumbs to slide the crosspiece
forward into the nozzle. Oil flow is
initiated.
1. With the blue collar on the hose
connector retracted toward
crosspiece, slide hose connector
shell onto bag nozzle.
2. Holding the bag connector, slide
the blue collar forward to lock the
hose connector onto the bag
nozzle.

3. Connector shown with shell
correctly engaged and collar
forward in lock position. Oil flow
commences. Do not slide
crosspiece forward.
1. Grasp the bag nozzle and slide
the gray hose connector on from
the side.
2. With the hose connector in
place, place fingers behind flange
on connector and press plunger
forward to lock.
3. Connector shown with shell
correctly engaged and plunger
forward in lock position. Oil flow
commences.
1. Grasp the bag nozzle and slide
the gray hose connector on from
the side.
2. With the hose connector in
place, place fingers behind flange
on connector and press plunger
forward to lock.
3. Connector shown with shell
correctly engaged and plunger
forward in lock position. Since the
White Insert Bag Nozzle is not
designed to work with the insert
pressed forward, this configuration
may or may not work. If it does not,
remove the gray hose connector and
order the blue hose connector from
Gold Medal.
NOTE: If the oil does not flow after engaging plunger on gray hose
connector, or if the crosspiece is inadvertently pushed forward when
using the blue hose connector with the white insert nozzle, the nozzle
center slider insert will be left pushed back into the bag, as shown
above left.
To correct this, place fingers behind nozzle as shown above
right. You will feel the center slider protruding slightly into the bag.
Holding the nozzle body from the front, press the slider from the back
side of the nozzle until it snaps outward into its correct position. The
nozzle is now ready to be used with a blue hose connector.

CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
SANITIZING INSTRUCTIONS
Your Model #2257GA or Model #2257GAD is all stainless steel construction. The exterior surfaces can
be cleaned of oil by wiping them with a dry towel. Then wipe the surfaces with another towel
moistened with mild soap and warm water.
Sanitizing the internal parts; tubing, pump, etc.
1. Push the dispense button to flush the system of oil. Make sure you have a container under the
discharge tube. Discard the oil.
2. Put the intake line in the hot water and pump it through the lines by holding the dispense button
until the pail is empty.
3. Fill the pail with a sanitizing solution. Gold Medal offers a product for this purpose, Chlor-Tech,
part number 1109. Put the bag connector in the pail of sanitizer. Pump it through the lines by
holding the dispense button until the pail is empty. It is not necessary to flush the sanitizer before
the next step, but you may flush with water if desired.
4. Before the next use, install the connector to a bag of oil and pump oil until oil is dispensed through
the discharge tube.
Schedule for Cleaning
The recommended sanitizing schedule is every night.
IMPORTANT:
This product is not intended for use with volatile food products, i.e. real butter.
