When first opening the slush machine, be very careful removing the machine from the
box. It is a heavy piece of equipment.
There is grease included for any of the moving parts in the machine. This grease
should be applied liberally to the spots where the mixer connects to the faucet, and
where it connects to the back of the machine. It should also be applied to the tube
inside the faucet assembly. There will already be grease on some of these parts, which
is the cause for any minor discoloration on the faucet or inside mechanisms.
Once the grease is applied, the machine is ready to use! It is a simple setup. Plug in the
machine, and you are ready to go!
It is important that the machine is set up in a place free of debris and clutter.
The floors should also be kept clear. Make sure hoses and wires for the machine
are all secured to avoid tripping hazards.
There are replacement gaskets included in the machine, as well as replacement parts
for the auger. These should not need to be replaced, but are included as a courtesy in
case of issues. The machine comes preassembled and pregreased.
IV. Setting Up the Machine
V. Operating the Machine
General Operation
The slush machine can be used with either one or both mixers in operation. The
cooling level will help determine the thickness of your slush. Be sure to monitor the
slush machine in the start-up. Always start at a lower level of freezing and work up.
If you start with the machine too cold, large blocks of ice will form and can damage
the machine.
When first operating the machine, turn on the power. If you are looking to make slush
mixtures, turn on the Freeze. There are 5 levels controlling the consistency of your
slush, which are level 0 (when there is no slush at all) to level 4 (corresponding to the
hardest slush). The recommended level is level 2 and that should be suffice for most
users. Give the machine at least an hour, and check on the consistency of the
mixture. Please be patient.

will start working.
If you want to change the consistency level, please follow the steps below:
Method 1:
a. Press Set3 for 3 seconds, release, the lights above MIX1 and MIX2 will flash.
b. Press MIX1/Set1 to change the consistency in Tank 1, and MIX2/Set2 to change
the consistency in in Tank 2.
Method 2:
a.
Press MIX1/Set1 or MIX2/Set2 for 3 seconds, release, lights above MIX1/Set1 or
MIX2/Set2 will flash.
b. Press MIX1/Set1 to change the consistency in Tank 1, and/or MIX2/Set2 to
change the consistency in Tank 2.
NOTE: If the consistency level is on level 0, compressor and mixer will continue
working, but the corresponding tank will not freeze.
It usually takes one hour for the slush to show up in the tank. Please be patient.

VI.Making your Slush
It is recommended that you use a prepared syrup for making slush in the machine.
Whatever you choose to use, it is important that the sugar content of any mixture be
around 20%. This sugar content makes the mixture maintain a two phase state, and
keeps your slush slushing. If making your own mixture, you mix sugar into the liquid
before adding to the bowls. Additionally, make sure that the slush machine is filled
up to red line when starting. This will allow the mixer to work properly.
Warning: Mixers might get stuck if the sugar content is less than 18%.
VII.Troubleshooting
Signs that the Mixers Are Stuck
1.Unusual sounds
2.Mixers do not rotate smoothly
In such cases, you should turn off the mixer immediately and adjust the Hard/Soft to
level 0 or turn off the freeze setting. Please do not restart the machine until the ice
melts. Usually, this process requires about 45 minutes.
Double check that the space around the machine is at least 14 inches (35 cm).

VIII. Cleaning the Machine
Cleaning the machine is very important for long term health of your slush machine.
Preparations：
1.Turn off the cooling function on the machine. Allow the mixers to continue to run
while the mixtures melts fully. This may take 30 minutes or more, depending on the
amount of liquid left, and the consistency of your slush.
2.Once there is no ice remaining, empty each bowl using the faucets.
Quick Clean:
1. Fill each bowl with warm water and continue to let the mixers run. Again, empty
from the faucet.
2. Once empty, for a quick clean, fill each bowl with food grade kitchen sanitizer,
allow the mixers to run for 15 minutes, and then empty out each bowl. Fill each
bowl again with water for a final flush.
3. When each side is empty, you can begin to disassemble the machine.
4. Each bowl has a plastic ridge on the front that slides in behind a metal lip on the
front of the machine. To remove each bowl, push on the bowl from the front,
gently, while lifting the front to get the plastic ridge over the metal lip.
