Figure 2 3.3 Electric requirements The machine is supplied with power cord fitted with 2P+PE, 16 А, 250 В (CEE 7/4). Use wall receptacle 2P+PE 16 А, 250 В (CEE 7/3) for machine connection. Connecting to the mains must be arranged in conformity with all requirements applicable in the country of use at the moment of commissioning.

4.1 Recommendations on sugar and colorants Use ONLY 100% pure granulated sugar (beet or cane). DO NOT USE sugar powder, sugar with added starch, dextrose, corn syrup and so on. Doing so will lead to poor quality floss and/or quick clogging of the spinning head. To make colored and flavored cotton candy use flavoring mix (Floss Art, for example), or ready to use flossugar.

7. Cotton floss will fly out upwards in a vertical column or ‘sleeve’. This sleeve can be wrapped around a stick by rapidly turning or spinning the stick with your fingers in a counter-clockwise direction (see Fig. 3): Figure 3 8.
Page 13
ACB-09 RoboJetFloss XL has the ‘Quick start button’. To make heat up time shorter, press and hold the ‘Quick start’ button for 10-15 seconds. This will send full power to the heating element and can be done even if the main power switch is off.

4.4 ‘No-snow’ cap In the production of cotton candy, ‘snow’ includes flakes, flecks, small filaments and sugar dust that are all too small to be collected in the normal winding process of producing a cotton candy serving. There are four situations when ‘snow’ will be emitted from the head: At the very beginning of operation.

This can be done using a wooden bamboo skewer or stick (never metal) while the head is spinning. Gently put the tip of a stick into the inner right-side edge of the cover and allow the rotation of the head against the stick to scrape off any sugar accumulation. This can be repeated on the outside of the sidewall as well, again only on the right-side of the spinning head.

4.6 Vertical machine tricks Only vertical flow machines allow you to perform entertaining tricks when making cotton candy. The most common technique is forcing the candy sleeve to follow you several feet away from the machine like a ‘snake’ or animated rope. The ‘snake’...

5.2 Spinning head cleaning 1. Unplug the machine. 2. Remove all sugar from the head, turning upside-down if necessary. 3. Detach the cover (see Fig. 10) by removing three screws that fix the cover. If the cover is ‘glued’ to the sidewall, gently tap with the screwdriver handle in order to loosen the parts.

6 Technical service •ALWAYS unplug while servicing. •Technical maintenance and repair MUST be conducted by a qualified technician only. •A warning tag (DO NOT TURN ON! WORK IN PROGRESS!) must be placed at the switchboard during servicing. •Spinning head might be hot. ALWAYS wait until it cooled down before cleaning. •ALWAYS use safety goggles while servicing.
