INSTALLATION
The Shavette Little Shaver is the finest value in ice shaving on the market today. With only the slightest
amount of care, this unit will give years of trouble free service. The shaver is a simple little machine to
operate, but in order to get the best results, please read these instructions before you attempt to operate the
machine.
Plug in the lead-in cord and flip the motor switch to be sure the motor runs. On the end of the motor is the
shaver head, which is inside the shaver body (hopper). The pusher handle is packed in a small separate
box and must be connected to the shaver body. The pusher handle goes down the shaver body to press the
ice against the revolving shaver head. The revolving shaver head shaves the ice.
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
The Shavette Little Shaver operates on 120 Volt, 15 Amp, single phase, 60 cycle AC current. The Shavette
Little Shaver Export operates on 230 Volt, 50 cycle. Models are available in a 12 volt DC version. Be sure
that your electrical supply meets this requirement.
ICE REQUIREMENTS
The Shavette Little Shaver 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.
MACHINE OPERATION
After unpacking the Shavette Little Shaver you should locate the pusher handle (packed in a separate box).
Connect the pusher handle to the shaver body. Plug the power cord into the appropriate electrical outlet.
TO OPERATE THE SHAVETTE LITTLE SHAVER
1. Fill the hopper 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.
2. Switch the motor on. Wait for the motor to come to full speed (a minute or so).
3. Push the pusher handle down against the ice in the hopper. 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 shaver head. You may find that you need to relieve the pressure two or three times in a cycle. Too
much pressure will result in snow that is coarse; too little pressure will make the snow mushy.
NOTE: Never allow any foreign or metallic objects around the shaver area of the Shavette Little Shaver. Ice
picks, scoops, and debris that may be in the ice often damage blades.

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 shaver head from the motor shaft by loosening the Allen head set screw between the motor
and the hopper.
3. Remove the shaver head. Pull the shaver head off of the motor shaft and through the hopper. If the
shaver head is frozen onto the shaft, remove the hold down bolts on the motor. Pull the motor back,
trapping the shaver head against the inside of the hopper, until the shaver head disengages.
4. After removing the shaver head, 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 shaver head. 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 dime. (See illustration below.) Make sure that the height is even
across the shaver head.
8. Tighten the blade screws completely. Check the blades again with a dime to ensure the blades did not
move while tightening the screws.
9. Replace the motor and shaver head. Mount the motor using the hold down bolts. Insert the shaver head
through the hopper and onto the motor shaft. Press the shaver head onto the motor shaft with the
pusher handle, then move the shaver head in another 1/8". Check that the shaver head is not rubbing
against the back of the hopper and the blades are not touching the pusher handle.
10. Replace the set screw between the hopper and the motor.
NOTE: Replace the shims that were between the motor base and the mounting surface.
