HOW TO OPERATE
Now that you have cleaned and reassembled your AUTOMATIC MINI
DONUT FACTORY™, making donuts is both easy and fun!
You will need:
• Cooking oil such as Canola, Peanut, Sunflower Oil or Soybean
Oil. (Never use butter, margarine or lard.)
• Paper towels and a brown paper bag for absorbing excess oil from hot donuts.
HOW YOUR DONUT MAKER WORKS
Your AUTOMATIC MINI DONUT FACTORY™ will release a measured amount of dough from
the Dough Dispenser into the hot oil. The donut will be held for seconds in a frying area
before advancing to the flipping mechanism. The flipping mechanism flips the donut
over onto the Spatula Fingers. The Spatula Fingers slowly transport the donut along to
the end of the Oil Fill Pan. The Spatula Fingers carefully rise up and out of the oil pushing
the donut over a drainage ramp, which allows the donut to slide onto the Donut Slide,
where it slides down into the Donut Bin. The entire cooking cycle for one donut takes a
little over one minute to complete. As soon as the first donut has completed cooking,
the cycle will repeat. The cycle is continuous, so make sure to turn off your AUTOMATIC
MINI DONUT FACTORY™ when you have cooked your desired amount of donuts.
MAKING DONUTS
It is essential for you to follow the included recipes EXACTLY. This unit
works best with AUTOMATIC MINI DONUT FACTORY™ packaged mix or
other drop donut mix especially created for donut machines.
Follow these instructions to make delicious mini donuts:
• Before filling the Oil Fill Pan, make sure the oil drain is closed by turning switch in
Oil Drainage Control Box to a horizontal position (Drain Closed). Also confirm the
Donut Bin is in place before you turn on the AUTOMATIC MINI DONUT FACTORY™.
• You may want to place a cookie sheet or tin foil under the AUTOMATIC MINI
DONUT FACTORY™ to collect any oil that may drop while making donuts.
• Plug your AUTOMATIC MINI DONUT FACTORY™ into a nearby outlet. Note
there is an instruction on the plug head that reads “this side up.”
• Pour oil into the Oil Fill Pan located directly under the clear door to
the MAX fill line indicated. The oil fill pan will hold approximately 1½
cups of oil to maximum fill line. (DO NOT overfill or underfill)
• Continue to check the oil level periodically while cooking donuts. Maintaining proper oil
level is critical for proper frying, flipping and maintaining the shape of the donuts.
