2. Description of the unit
2.1 Technical description
The TDR s AC uses a combination of direct infra-red radiation and convection heat. The rotor is
being wheeled by a maintenance-free motor with a gear box. The fan provides an equally divided
heat. The glass panes are equipped with a heat reflecting layer to keep the heat inside the grill.

4.2 Switching-on the unit
4.3 Loading the unit
When the door is open press the rotor button to activate the rotor. This allow easy loading or
unloading the products.
Whilst loading the unit, make sure that the rotor gets evenly loaded, so that the mass of the products
is evenly spread over de rotor, causing an equal balance. Do not allow empty meat forks, meat
baskets and chicken racks etc. in the grilling process.
4.3.1 Loading the rotisserie using V-shape spits
The unit will be equipped with a set of V-shape spits.
Whole uncut chickens should always be grilled using the meat forks. This way their
natural fat will baste each other, giving a perfectly slender cooking result.
Refer to the You-Tube movie: “Fri-Jado instruction for binding and loading chicken”.
For preparing chicken or any other poultry, you can work as follows.
•Place the skewer into the small outside hole on the rotor end plate on your left (as you face the
oven). The back of the V-shape spit should be pointing towards you.
•Fit the other end on the spit into the small corresponding holes on the rotor end plate on your
right (as you face the oven).
•Make sure the spit is level. If spit is not level make sure you are using the correct holes on the
rotor end plates.

TDR s auto-clean
EN 14 / 32
4.3.2 Loading the rotisserie using meat forks (accessory)
For preparing chicken or any other poultry, you can work as follows.
1. Insert one point of the meat fork through the chest at the position of the wings. Insert the
other point through the drum sticks. Don’t forget to include the wings.
2. Leave some space between the products, for an even exposure and browning.
3. Put the meat forks onto the rotor disks in such a way that during grilling the chicken
breasts face the operator.
4. Put the points of the meat forks through the appropriate holes in the rotor disks.
5. The other end of the meat forks must be put through the corresponding holes in the
opposite rotor disk.
6. To insert the remaining meat forks in the unit, act as follows:
•Switch-on the unit using the on/off button.
•With the door opened, use the rotor button to move the rotor to easily insert the next
meat fork. Keep the rotor button pressed until the rotor reaches the desired position.
•Repeat these steps, until all products are loaded.

EN 15 / 32
4.3.3 Loading the rotisserie using meat baskets (accessory)
If you are using meat baskets, act as follows:
•With the TDR 5 you must stick the ends of the meat baskets through the appropriate holes of
the rotor disks.
•With the TDR 7 and TDR 8 you must attach the meat baskets to the appropriate pins.
(type for TDR-8 is shown)
•Whilst loading the unit with meat baskets, you must see to it, that the rotor gets evenly loaded,
so that the mass of the products is evenly spread over de rotor, causing an equal balance.
•Also see to it that no meat parts are sticking out of the baskets.
4.3.4 Loading the rotisserie using two different accessories
WARNING
After loading the rotor, at least make ONE full rotation, and check whether the rotor can
spin without obstructions.
If you want to load the unit using two different accessories at the same time, always fill the rotor with
ONE accessory fewer than the maximum allowed quantity. See to it that accessories of the same
type are placed consecutively.

TDR s auto-clean
EN 16 / 32
4.4 Grilling time
Grilling time depends on a number of factors:
•The ambient temperature and draft in the direct vicinity of the unit.
•Grilling temperature.
•The initial product temperature.
•The sort of meat (fat or lean) and with or without additives.
•The mass and shape of the product.
•The total amount of meat to be grilled in one grilling cycle.
•The end result.
Seasonings
The use of herbs and seasoning adds a specific twist to every meal. Using them right
is of great importance for the end result.
Guidelines for seasoning are:
•Preferably use the special chicken and meat seasonings of the supplier of the Fri-
Jado Grill. There are special seasoning mixtures for poultry, lamb, pork, large meat,
game and fish.
•Season the products to be grilled when dry.
•Season the products 90 minutes before grilling at the most to prevent the spices
from abstracting too much fluid from the meat.
•Do not add oil or grease while grilling.
•Season chicken on the inside and on the outside.
4.5 Taking out the products
WARNING
After the grilling, the interior of the unit and the glass panes are very hot.
Always use oven gloves when taking out the meat forks or other accessories.
4.5.1 Taking out the V-shape spit
When taking out the V-shape spit, it is best to act as follows:
1. Hold the V-shape spit firmly.

This releases the V-shape spit.
3. Take the V-shape spit at its other end and take it out of the unit.
4. Remove the products from the V-shape spit.
Refer to the You-Tube movie: “Fri-Jado instruction for unloading chicken from a
