The blades are not adjustable, and side note are very sharp, I would strongly advise to not get near them. You can however use larger chunks of ice (the deeper freeze the better) to accomplish finer snow (shavings). I found a small cup with a diameter of about 4 inches to be about the best. Freeze the water inside the cup and the machine will shave a larger surface than a regular cube making for finer shavings.

I don't know of any way to adjust the blade but have found that really good frozen ice does not chunk and is fine. If yours routinely has chunks and does this with ice that is hard and right out of the freezer I would say return it for a defect

You need a hunk of ice for best results. If you are looking to get the shaved ice ,like snow, I suggest filling a solo cup, the red plastic cup, with water and freezing it. Slide the hunk of ice out of the cup and into the shaver. Perfect snow like ice every time.

There is a "butterfly" nut where the blade is that you can loosen to move the blade out or in for thinner or thicker pealing. Tighten nut when done. I had to adjust mine when mine was new and it made a world of difference.

Sorry, no idea. It was a gift to someone else. I do not recall any settings to select smooth or chunky, just that it overheated and quit before it finished its first batch. It was returned.

I am not sure what you mean by settings but there is attachments that regulate the length of the cut. If you want 3/8 left you have an attachment or 1/4 etc

Please unscrue the two scruse on the back of the blades, when you do this then you will see 4 small scruse! Tighten them down and you shouldnt have any more poblems,

My granddaughter has mine at the present but I think you can adjust the blade so it slices thicker.

Over time the blade will bend in the box due to the way it rests, sometimes it is a factory issue, it just comes out bent, and to fix it is a bit time consuming but simple, level it our on a flat hard surface like a desk, have the curvature aimedo down toward the desk and set heavy objects on the blade, give it some time, about a day, and the blade should have straightened enough for you to bend it in the reverse direction to get it next to perfect

I think you can use a diamond bit masonary blade that should be able do the job. Take it slow when you are cutting.

It sounds like you need a blade adjustment. The cutting reel and stationary blade should be just short of making contact -see the manual for directions. Also there is a handle height adjustment.

You have to find some pliers and in tighten the metal pieces and adjust to the desired length. P.s. The instructions are on the back. Hoped I help.

Lower the blade all the way down. You will need 2 wrenches, what size I dont know right off hand, go to the center nut holding the blade in. Use 1 wrench to hold the nut still on one side and use the other wrench to turn the other side counter clockwise. Make sure you put the new blade on the same way you take the used one off.

There is a thin metal fin that runs up the middle of the handle. Use your thumb to push it to one side and then fold the blade down.

So sorry, cannot help. I had to return them because they didn't cut anywhere near an inch like they are claim to. Decided to get one from Home Depot for about $8 (which I'm sure is available at Amazon too). Good luck!

I actually mix mine with ground flaxseed (1/1 ratio) and that makes it much less chunky. The only other recommendation I can give is, use more water, stir heavily and chug it right away. The longer you leave it the thicker it becomes.

No I don't. The only setting that works well is the largest one. The handle as well as the blades on the finer settings are very flimsy. I bought one of those smaller handheld ones though I haven't used it yet so I can't compare but I definitely wouldn't buy this product again had I known What I do now after buying it

The speed adjustment on mine works beutifully though I have trouble balancing material, speed, blade tension, and material feed rate. On occasion the motor bogs at low speed in which case I have to back off, let it regain speed, then feed the material more slowly. My greatest wish is for an easier blade change mechanism.

In my experience, make sure the aluminum piece that goes up next to the blade is adjusted properly. If not it will rub against the blade. More information would be helpfull
