SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Popcorn Machine
3Model# 2408
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Checking Shipment
Unpack carton and check thoroughly for any damage, which may have occurred during transit.
Damage claims should be filed immediately with the transportation company.
Electrical Requirements
The Model #2408 is designed to operate on a 120 Volt / 15 Amp / single-phase outlet.
Make sure the popper is on a dedicated line, and that no other appliances are on the same circuit.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
CONTROLS AND THEIR FUNCTIONS
There are three switches on the popper.
LIGHT AND WARMER SWITCH
Turns on the heat to the bottom corn pan and heat light.
KETTLE MOTOR SWITCH
Turns on the motor which drives kettle agitator shaft.
KETTLE HEAT SWITCH
Turns on the heat element
AMOUNT OF POPCORN AND OIL
Your new popper is equipped with an eight-ounce corn measure cup. We recommend
flavored and colored coconut oil. Popcorn popped in coconut oil stays fresh longer. Coconut
oil does not leave black deposits in your kettle like other oils.
Corn charge - 8 oz. (240 ml)
Oil charge – 2.6 oz. (60 ml)
Flavacol – 1 tablespoon (8 cc)
POPPING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Turn KETTLE HEAT and KETTLE MOTOR switch ON.
2. Make test pop with 3 kernels of corn and 1/2 oz. (15 ml) of oil.
3. Load pre-measured popcorn and oil pouch into kettle.
4. Do not lift kettle lids(s) after popcorn is placed in kettle.
5. When corn has popped, dump kettle.
6.Repeat cycle starting with Item #3; always pop 3-5 batches for best
popcorn.

CARE AND CLEANING
Each time you finish a series of poppings, wipe the outside of the kettle with a soft cloth to remove
any oil drippage on the outside of the kettle. After you finish popping for the day, allow kettle to
cool until it is not too hot to handle, but still warm. Unplug kettle and remove it from the machine.
With a cloth, wipe out the inside of the kettle, kettle lid, crossbar, outside and underneath of the
kettle.
Cleaning the cabinet of your machine is easy. Take a clean cloth and wipe excess grease from
the glass. Wipe the outside of the machine also.
NOTE: Never use a glass or plastic cleaner that contains ammonia. It will crack the plastic on the machine.
