Your electrician must furnish sufficient power for proper machine operation. We recommend
this equipment be on a dedicated and protected circuit. Failure to wire properly will void the
warranty and may result in damage to the machine. It is Gold Medal Products Co.’s recommendation
that this machine be plugged directly into a wall outlet. The use of extension cords is not
recommended due to safety concerns, and may cause sacrificed and/or reduced performance.
Make sure cord is located to prevent a trip hazard or unit upset.
Before You Plug In Machine
. Make sure all machine switches are in the OFF position before plugging the equipment
into the receptacle.
2. Make sure the wall outlet can accept the grounded plugs (where applicable) on the
power supply cord.
3. The wall outlet must have the proper polarity. If in doubt, have a competent
electrician inspect the outlet and correct if necessary.
4. DO NOT use a grounded to un-grounded receptacle adapter (where applicable).
5. Install the unit in a level position.
CAUTION
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by Gold Medal Products Co.,
its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.

Popping Corn
This section describes instructions for popping Standard (salted) Popcorn and Pappy’s Kettle
Corn.
Amount of Popcorn and Oil
Your new popper is equipped with a corn, salt, and oil measure. We recommend flavored and
colored coconut oil. Popcorn popped in coconut oil stays fresh longer and does not leave black
deposits in your kettle like other oils. Use only top quality, fresh popcorn from reputable suppliers.
Ingredient amounts for popping Standard Popcorn:
Kettle
Size
Popcorn
Charge
Oil

Flavacol (Salt)
6 oz.
6 oz. ( 77 ml)
2 oz. (59 ml)

cc)
For best results use Mega-Pop® 6 oz. premeasured pouches (Item# 2836).
Popping Standard (Salted) Popcorn
. Turn the Lights/Warmer, Kettle Heat and Kettle Motor Switches ON.
2. To determine when the kettle is ready to pop corn (about 4 minutes), test pop three
kernels of corn and one ounce (30 ml) of popping oil. When the kernels pop, the kettle
is ready for use.
3. Lift the kettle lid and load the Mega-Pop® premeasured popcorn and oil pouch into
kettle, or pour in the popcorn and Flavacol, then add oil in the premeasured amounts
specified above. Close lid.
4. When the corn has finished popping, gently dump the popcorn.
5. On the final kettle of corn, turn the Kettle Heat Switch OFF just as the lids are forced
open by the popping corn. This procedure saves electricity, since the kettle has plenty
of heat, and helps eliminate smoke/odor from any oil residue that remains after
popping has stopped.
6. When finished popping, make sure KETTLE HEAT and KETTLE MOTOR switches are
turned OFF.
NEVER LE VE THE HE T ON WHEN YOU RE NOT POPPING CORN!

through the left door. Close kettle lid, then re-open the right door.
Caution: Due to the potential of getting hit with hot popcorn seeds, we recommend
using eye protection for this step.
6. When the corn has nearly finished popping, gently dump the popcorn.
7. Immediately shake on salt and mix the popped corn thoroughly.
8. On the final kettle of corn, turn the Kettle Heat Switch OFF just as the lids are forced
open by the popping corn. This procedure saves electricity, since the kettle has plenty
of heat, and helps eliminate smoke/odor from any oil residue that remains after

Care and Cleaning
DANGER
Machine must be properly grounded to prevent electrical shock to personnel.
DO NOT immerse in water.
Always unplug the equipment before cleaning or servicing.

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.
Note: It is extremely important to follow all of the cleaning procedures, otherwise parts
damage and equipment failure will result. The warranty does not cover parts that
are damaged due to improper cleaning.
Daily Kettle Cleaning Instructions
. In between batches of popping corn, wipe the kettle with a clean, soft cloth. It is easy
to keep the outside of the kettle clean when it is warm and the oil is not baked on.
C UTION: The hot kettle will cause burns if you touch it with your hand. Allow kettle
to cool at least hour before attempting to clean.
WARNING
To avoid serious burns, DO NOT touch the kettle while it is hot!

2. Every night, mix Gold Medal’s Heat’n Kleen solution (Item No. 2095), 2 tablespoons
per gallon of water. It is not necessary to use the entire gallon at once; only use
enough to fill the kettle /2 inch deep.
3. Turn the kettle heat ON. When the water starts to boil, turn the kettle heat OFF.
4. Allow to cool for 30 minutes, then dump the solution into a bucket and wipe the inside
of the kettle with a clean cloth. Make sure all of the solution goes into the bucket; do
not spill any in the interior of the machine.
If the kettle is very dirty, this step may be repeated more than once or allow solution
to work overnight. The next morning, dump the solution into a bucket and wipe the
inside of the kettle with a clean cloth.
5. With the unit OFF and unplugged, wipe the kettle lead cord with a clean SLIGHTLY damp
cloth. DO NOT get moisture into the kettle lead-in cord, severe damage will result.
