ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
This product requires a properly-grounded 120 volt supply with a 15 amp circuit. The Sno-Storm and The
Blizzard have a current draw of 5.7 amps; The Blast and The Cooler have a current draw of 5.3 amps.
(Export voltage is 230VAC.)
We recommend your Paragon Sno-Cone Machine be plugged directly into a dedicated outlet. Extension
cords may create a safety hazard and reduce its performance.
Be sure outlet accepts three (3) prong grounded plug. DO NOT use a three (3) prong to two (2) prong
adapter.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How much will my sno-cone machine produce?
Your sno-cone machine was engineered to shave 500 lbs. of cube or chunk ice per hour.
Based on the ratio that a 1/2 lb. of ice will make a 6 oz. sno-cone, the Paragon Sno-Cone
Machine will yield 1000 sno-cones per hour.
How much syrup should I use to flavor my sno-cones?
One 6 oz sno-cone will take 2 ounces of syrup – cones will not hold more than that.
Can I use block ice to make sno-cones?
You can use block ice to produce sno-cones if you first break it down into pieces 3-4 inches
in size. Ice will not fit the horn if the pieces are too large.
