SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE
ROTISSERIE OPERATION:
• Always place the spit rod through the centre of the food.
• Securethefoodrmlytothespitrodwiththe4prongedskewers.It
may be necessary to tie some food such as fowl and rolled roasts to
retain their shape for even rotation and cooking.
• It is important to balance your food on the spit rod. If you do not balance
your food it may cook unevenly and may also add unnecessary pressure
on the motor which may reduce the life of the motor. Balancing the
food on your spit rod will determine how much weight can be turned
by the motor.
• If food is unbalanced on the spit rod you can use the counter weight
provided. Attach the counter weight assembly to the spit shaft.
(See DIAGRAM 6) The counter weight should be directly opposite the
heavy side of the food. The counter weight can be adjusted vertically,
towards the spit rod or away from the spit rod until the proper balance
is achieved.
• Large cuts may require the removal of the cooking grills and warming
racks to allow full rotation of the spit rod.
• All roasting should be done with the BBQ lid down.
• Place a drip tray under the meat to catch all unwanted fat and juices.
• Cook with the indirect cooking method. This is where the food is not
cookeddirectlyovertheame.Positionthefoodinthecenterofthe
BBQ and light the outside burners. The BBQ will act like an oven and
cook the food as it spins on the rotisserie.
• To regulate heat, adjust the lit burners from low to high when required.
• Please check your food at various times during the cooking process.
As the food cooks it may shrink and the four prong skewers may need
to be adjusted. CAUTION the rotisserie will be hot. Use a BBQ mitt and
pliers to adjust the thumb screws or any other part of the rotisserie.
