Setting The Amount Of Popping Oil; Model 2257, March 2003 - Current - Gold Medal Pop-O-Gold Instruction Manual

Setting the Amount of Popping Oil with a Gold Medal BIB
In March 2003, we introduced the model 2257 with the E-Z Set control.
With this system, it is not necessary to set a timer. To adjust the oil amount, follow these instructions:
Holding the RED Oil Dispense push button (on the popper) down while turning on the Oil System Master
switch (on the popper) puts the unit in the program mode. The oil light (on the popper) will start to blink off
and on indicating that the timer is in the program mode.
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
again 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.
You will need to perform this procedure with the oil lines full of oil. Otherwise, you are setting both the
amount of oil that goes in the kettle and the amount of oil required to fill the lines. Just fill the lines using the
process above, then reset the amount as described above.
NOTES:
Model 2257D is has the capability of "remembering" two different settings for poppers with the "Salt/Sweet"
option or "Flexi-Pop option.
- For Salt/Sweet models, just put the switch in the "salt" position, and set the oil amount as described
above. Then put the switch in the "sweet" position and repeat the setting procedure. The pump will
remember both settings.
- For Flexi-Pop models, just put the "Load" switch in one position, 32oz. for example, then set the oil
amount. Then put the load switch in the other position, 18oz. for example. And repeat the setting procedure.
- Model 2457 is the heated line option for the 2257 pump.
