5.3 Loading & Unloading the Rotisserie
CROSS CONTAMINATION OF RAW AND COOKED PRODUCT IS VERY
DANGEROUS AND CAN LEAD TO FOOD POISONING.
DO NOT LOAD UNCOOKED PRODUCT INTO THE ROTISSERIE UNTIL THE
COOKING CYCLE IS COMPLETE AND ALL COOKED PRODUCT IS REMOVED
FROM THE ROTISSERIE.
5.3.1 Loading the Skewers
When the rotisserie reaches the desired preheat temperature the skewers can be loaded.
Open the door to shut off the burner and to stop the drive rotation. Use the green Manual Advance Switch (as
indicated in Figure 4-1 and Figure 4-3) to position sockets as required.
The orientation of the skewer in the socket will vary depending on the model of
your equipment.
Follow these steps to properly load skewers into the rotisserie.
1. As indicated in diagram ‘A’ below, insert the pointed end of the skewer into a hole in the plate on left side of
rotisserie.
2. Align the other end of the skewer with the corresponding socket on the right plate and push it into place (see
diagram ‘B’). Each skewer can only be inserted one way.
3. Slide the skewer back to the left until the shoulder of the tip at the left end of the skewer rests against the left
end plate as shown in diagram ‘C’.
4. Check that the skewer is secured in position (holds in place).
5. Advance the drive to another position using the green manual advance switch. Repeat steps 1-5 as required.
6. Close the door, select the proper cooking time and temperature, and the rotisserie will begin to cook.
USE PROTECTIVE CLOTHING WHEN LOADING AND UNLOADING THE
ROTISSERIE.
5.3.2 Unloading the Skewers
1. Open the door to shut off the burner and to stop the drive from rotating.
2. Verify that the internal temperature of the product has reached a safe level.
3. Remove each skewer by lifting the left end, sliding the skewer to the left and then gently pivot the skewer out
of the rotisserie. Place each skewer on a skewer cart or a table designated for cooked product.
4. Use the green manual advance switch to position the skewers (or baskets) as required for removal.
5. Close the door of the rotisserie to resume operation or cooking; (the burner will reignite as long as the
thermostat is set and the red on/off switch is pulled out).
6. If no further cooking is required, push in the red main on/off switch.
