USING YOUR ICE SHAVER CAUTION: Your Victorio Ice Shaver has a sharp stainless steel blade & ice spikes that can cut and cause injury. Keep fingers clear from blades and avoid contact at all times when using and cleaning. Before using for the first time Wash machine in warm, soapy water. Do not wash in dishwasher. Fill ice cups with water and place in freezer. When frozen solid, loosen ice block by holding the ice cup in your hand for a few seconds. (Be sure to make extra ice blocks and store them in the freezer for future use). Ice cubes may also be used. How To Use 1. Place an ice block (removed from cup) in the machine or ice cubes. Position the empty ice cup or small bowl underneath to catch the shaved ice. 2. Put the lid with handle assembly on the machine, press down and twist lid clockwise until tight. Turn handle clockwise and apply downward pressure to shave ice and produce snow. 3. Place snow in a paper cone or glass, then add your favorite Victorio Snow Cone syrup or beverage to create your own frosty treat. 4. When ice block or cubes are completely shaved, empty out any remaining ice pieces and add a new ice block or cubes to make more shaved ice. 5. After each use, shake out any water or ice particles remaining in the machine. It is not necessary to wash the machine after using ice made only from water. However, after using flavored ice, wash and dry thoroughly. Do not wash in dishwasher. When assembling, dismantling, or cleaning, always be careful not to touch the blade or ice spikes. 3
COOL & EASY TREATS Snow Cones Shave ice directly into Victorio Snow Cone Cups. Mound tops with additional Snow if desired. Dispense your favorite Victorio Syrup directly on top of the shaved ice. Combine different syrups to create your own unique flavors. Because the shaved ice is so snowy fine, it absorbs the flavored syrup instead of it running to the bottom. This gives you a truly intense flavor sensation, all the way through! Tip: Use flavored ice cubes for unique snow cone tastes. Freeze fruit juice, soda, flavored yogurt, or flavored milk into cubes. Shave into cups. If desired, use Victorio Syrups for added flavor. Soft Drink Slush Use your favorite variety such as cola, root beer, and fruit flavors. Add a twist of lemon or lime for an added burst of flavor. Fruit Juice Slush Natural flavorings that are both tasty and good for you. Try apple, grape, orange, grapefruit, and cranberry or any combination for a special treat. Rainbow Slush A colorful and fun treat. Place a layer of shaved ice in the bottom of a tall, parfait style glass; add flavoring. Add a middle layer of ice; add a different flavoring. Add a top layer of ice and another flavoring. Garnish with fruit or paper umbrellas. A great party treat! Ice Cream Slush Place a scoop of vanilla ice cream in the bottom and shave ice on top of it. Add your favorite flavor of Victorio syrup on top for a creamy refreshing treat. 4
Fruit Wonders Mix shaved ice with fruit juice and either canned or fresh fruits. Try orange and pineapple juice with bananas. A great way to start the day or as an afternoon pick-me-up! OTHER SHAVED ICE USES Shaved ice is a great base when used in other blended drinks and smoothies. Combine with fruit, yogurt, or juices for great tasting and healthy treats. Fresh shaved ice makes a great ice bed for seafood appetizers, such as shrimp cocktail. BLADE ADJUSTMENT Use extreme caution when adjusting blade. To adjust how fine or coarse the shaved ice is loosen the 2 screws (this will require a screwdriver) and move the blade farther into the chamber for coarse or out for more fine shaved ice. Tighten screws firmly when you are done. COARSE FINE 5
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE PROBLEM Will not shave ice when handle is cranked SOLUTION Remove ice spike cover see figure on page 1 Not enough ice in chamber Ice is too coarse or has large chips in it. For the finest snow always use the ice molds to make ice blocks. If using regular ice cubes it is normal to get chips or chunks of ice as the cubes can break up when shaving Adjust blade to fine setting. Shaves ice but it is very slow and or snow texture is too fine. Adjust blade to coarse setting Make sure to press down as handle is cranked. Handle is very hard to turn Check to make sure everything is assembled in the correct order see figure on page 1 This is a hand crank ice shaver and it is normal for it to be hard to crank especially for small children or people with weak arm strength. 6
