Chocolate Fountain Instructions

 

Operation:

To melt the chocolate, microwave the 7.5 lb. bag on medium power, kneading every 60 seconds until the chocolate is liquid. Before pouring the melted chocolate into the fountain, set the heat dial on low for 5 to 10 minutes to let the machine warm up. Once the chocolate has been poured, turn the on/off switch to the “on” position to start the auger. After the auger has been running for approximately 15 minutes, the heat dial can be turned off to avoid over heating. If the chocolate starts to harden, turn the heat dial to a low setting for several minutes. If necessary, pre-melted chocolate can be added to the fountain during use, while the auger is running.

The auger motor generates heat and is designed for a use of approximately 2 to 3 hours. Operating the fountain for a substantially longer period of operating the fountain with the auger running and the heat at a higher setting could cause the motor to overheat. If the auger is turned off for more than a few minutes and the chocolate in the auger tube has started to harden, the auger should not be restarted until the auger tube has been cleaned. Forcing the auger to spin in the hardened chocolate could damage the motor. (The fountain is equipped with a fuse (10 amp fuse available at any hardware store), which is designed to turn off the motor if a strain is put on the motor. The fuse should not affect the normal operation of the fountain.

The feet on the fountain are adjustable to allow you to level the fountain for consistent flow around the entire fountain. We recommend that the endge of the fountain base be at least ¼ inch from the surface that the fountain is sitting on to allow sufficient air to enter the base to cool the motor. We recommend that you check the belt from the motor to the center shaft prior to each use to make sure that the belt is tight. The belt can be tightened by loosening the 7/16” bolts, sliding the motor on the guides further away from the center shaft, and tightening the bolts again.

Cleaning:

Warm/hot water is best to clean the fountain. The fountain disassembles into three parts; the auger tube, the auger, and the bowl. The auger tube can be removed simply by pulling it up off the four stainless posts. The auger also pulls up off the t-shaft. The auger and tower should be pulled straight up to avoid bending the motor shaft. The inside of the bowl can be cleaned with warm/hot water. The bowl can be filled with water for cleaning. NEVER SUBMERSE THE BASE IN WATER.

Once the parts have been cleaned, simply place the auger back on the t-shaft and the auger tube on the four posts. If necessary, the top bowl and auger tube plates can be removed by loosening the set screws.
