undefined SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

  • Make sure the roaster is turned off before starting any maintenance work.

  • The power cord must be unplugged or the roaster fully isolated from the electrical supply before removing any panels.

  • Read the instructions in full before starting work, and follow the steps as instructed below

Tools required

  • Flat-head screwdriver, coin, or similar to open front door
  • 2.5 mm hex key, to open all other panels

Open the front door

Turn the latch with a flat-head screwdriver, thin coin, or similar, and pull the door open.

Remove side panels

Open the front door as above before removing the side panels.

Remove the four bolts along the bottom edge of the panel using a 2.5 mm hex key. Pull the base of the panel towards you, and then lift the panel up to remove it. Set the panel aside.

Remove side panel

In some cases, the right hand panel can get

Remove rear panel

Remove the bolts securing the rear panel using a 2.5 mm hex key. There are 4 bolts on the back face, and 2 on top. Lift the panel up to remove it and set aside.

Remove back panel

Remove top panel

The top panel is made of two sections, so that in most installations it can be removed without disconnecting the exhaust ducting. However if the duct connection overlaps the top panel significantly, it may be necessary to disconnect the ducting before removing the top panel.

To remove the top panel, first remove both side panels and the rear panel as above.

Next, remove the hopper.

Finally, remove the bolts securing the top panel using a 2.5 mm hex key. There are 3 on the side furthest from the exhaust, and 5 on the side closest to the exhaust. The two bolts that secure the extra section next to the exhaust can be left in place unless you are disassembling the exhaust or cyclone.

Lift the panel slightly and slide it away from the exhaust connection to remove it.

Replacing panels

When replacing panels, loosely position all the bolts first, to ensure they're correctly aligned, before tightening them. You may need to push the panels gently into position to get the screw holes to line up correctly — for example, by pushing downwards on the side panels.

Once all the bolts are in position, you can tighten them. Do not overtighten the panel bolts: finger-tight is sufficient.

The top panel has two gaskets: one around the hopper, and one around the exhaust. Ensure these gaskets are correctly positioned before securing the bolts on the top panel.
