the following positions:
FFUULLLLPPOOWWEERRWhen in this position
your equipment is at
full power and ready to
use.
OOFFFFRROOTTAARRYYTwo off positions are
provided so that a
single rotation to either
direction will shut the
unit off.
SSTTAANNDDBBYYThe standby position
reduces the power
consumption by 75%.
Using this position
during quiet times
will save electricity and
keep the toaster warm.
Use this whenever you
know the toaster is not
required for the next 10
minutes. When needed,
turn the switch to FULL
POWER. Recovery time
is about 30 seconds.
You can use the conveyor toaster to warm
or toast other bread type products such
as buns, muffins, bagels and crossiants.
1. Adjust the top and bottom element
temperatures to required settings.
Ensure any food product used with the
conveyor is less than 30mm thick. If
larger it may get stuck inside the
toaster.
2. For buns and bagels and other items
requiring only one side toasting , set
the top element to 10 (High) and
the bottom to 5 (Medium). DDoonn’’tt

•TToocclleeaanntthheeccoonnvveeyyoorrbbeelltt::set the
power saver in the FULL POWER
position, turn the top and bottom
heat control to the OFF position.
For a lightly soiled conveyor belt, turn
conveyor speed control to the slowest
setting (2) and wipe with a damp
cloth.
For a heavily soiled conveyor belt,
turn conveyor speed control to
slowest setting (2) and wipe with a
dry, light abrasive pad.
•After the unit cools, disconnect unit
from power, remove interior crumb
tray and clean. Slide crumb tray back
into position after cleaning.
•Wipe exterior surface of unit using a
damp cloth once the machine has
cooled.
•Never allow a build up of crumbs
in the tray as this may cause fire.
Clean on a daily basis.
•Ensure the cooling fan is clear of dust
and grease. CCLLEEAANNWWEEEEKKLLEEYY.
Your Dualit conveyor toaster is equipped
with an automatically activated heat limit
switch that interrupts the heater tube
connections if the ambient temperature in
the control box exceeds 190°F (88°C).
This switch can be reset manually by
pushing the red button on the bottom of
the toaster.
CAUTION: DO NOT OPERATE UNIT
WITHOUT CRUMB TRAY IN PLACE. THE
UNIT WILL OVERHEAT AND ACTIVATE
THE HEAT LIMIT SWITCH.
1. My toast is unevenly toasted?
aa))Ensure that heat regulators are set to
the highest setting possible and the
switch cannot turn any further. Any
adjustment to the heat settings will take
time to settle and as such these controls
should nnoottbe adjusted whilst making
toast.
For best results set the heat regulators
both to full, and the speed to 5. Vary the
speed to achieve desired brownness.

2. My toast is burning or is
underdone?
a) The speed setting should be set at the
half way mark; this can be adjusted to
taste, and will take a matter of seconds to
settle.
If toasting is too light, turn conveyor
speed control counter-clockwise to a
lower speed
If toasting is too dark, turn conveyor
speed control clockwise to a faster speed
b) Allow at least 10 minutes for the
conveyor to heat up and settle from
switch on.
c) If the toaster has been left on full
power without bread passing through it,
the first slices through will burn due to
the build up of heat. When the toaster is
in an idle period it is advised that the
toaster be turned to the ¼ power setting.
This will prolong the life span of the
elements and reduce the chances of
un-even toasting when used again after
the idle period.

DO NOT ADJUST THE HEAT SETTINGS
WHEN MAKING TOAST, ANY
ADJUSTMENT REQUIRED SHOULD BE
MADE WITH THE SPEED CONTROL
ONLY.
3. My conveyor is overheating?
a) If the conveyor belt continues to run
and the elements have cut out, check the
cooling fan is running and free of dust
and dirt as the heat limit switch may have
tripped.
If the fan is dirty, isolate from the power
and clean with a soft brush, leave for ten
minutes for the toaster to cool and push
the reset button to begin toasting again.
(Allow time for the toaster to heat up
again)
b) The toaster will also overheat if the
crumb tray is not in position when in use.
This acts as heat screen and helps protect
the internal components vital to the
running of the toaster.
c) Allow a clearance of 80mm from the
rear of the machine and 30mm gap
between machines if two or more
machines are placed next to each other.
4. My bread is getting stuck inside
the toaster?
a) Ensure the thickness of the bread is no
thicker than 30mm or it will get stuck and
may cause fire.
5. Where do I position the conveyor
toaster?
a) Ensure there are no shelves or units
directly above the conveyor.
b) Allow ample clearance around the
conveyor, minimum 80mm at rear and
30mm at sides. This ensures air can
circulate around the conveyor and keep it
at optimum operating temperature.
c) Do not cover or obstruct the fan.
6. My elements have gone white?
a) Dualit conveyors use silica glass tube
elements. These may go white over time.
Deposits of starch from the bread may
build up on the element. This in not
harmful in any way nor does it effect the
toasting performance.
