OPERATION
The RT-2T “Twin Toaster” has two identical control panels. Each side of the toaster works independently of the other. The
following instructions refer to the operation of either the left or right side of the toaster. Procedures are identical for each
side as follows:
CONTROLS
The RT-2T is equipped with two heater zones per side.
These zones are located above the conveyor belt and
below the conveyor belt and are controlled by the two
Infinite control knobs on each control panel. These control
knobs serve as on/off switches to the heating elements and
regulate light and dark toasting. The upper knob controls
the upper heating elements and the lower knob controls the
lower heating elements. These controls can be used
together for toasting both sides of a product or indepen-
dently for toasting only one side of a product. The red
indicator lights located directly beside the Infinite controls
show that the heating elements are on.
The conveyor motors are controlled by the On/Off switches.
The conveyor speed is regulated by the conveyor speed
controls located above the Infinite controls.
INITIAL START-UP
After the toaster is installed, flip the On/Off switch to the
On position and set the Conveyor Speed control to
maximum speed setting (counter-clockwise until stopped).
CAUTION
To avoid damage to the conveyor system
Always have conveyor belt running
When heaters are working.
Turn both infinite control knobs to #9. A 10 MINUTE
PRE-HEAT TIME IS REQUIRED.
After pre-heat period has elapsed, turn the infinite control
knobs to #5. Wait approximately 1 minute for unit to cool.
The unit is now ready to toast on two sides.
NOTE: Some experimentation may be necessary due to
various types of bread products and your preference in
toast color.
TOASTING BREAD: Two sided toasting.
Follow instructions under “Initial Start-Up”. After toaster is
properly pre-heated, place 2 slices of bread side by side,
on the conveyor belt, and continue feeding bread in the
same manner, The product passes through the toaster
and slides down the chute into the receiving tray. Leaving
the toasted product in the receiving tray allows the
product to remain warm until needed.
If product is too dark, decrease the Infinite controls one
number and wait one minute for heat dissipation. Repeat
procedure if product remains too dark. If the pro9duct is
too light, increase the infinite controls one number and
wait several minutes for heat build up.
If product remains too light after increasing the heat, you
can slow the conveyor speed slightly by turning the
Speed Control knob clockwise.
WARNING
HOT SURFACES ARE PRESENT
USE CAUTION WHILE OPERATING
TOASTING BUNS: One sided toasting.
Follow instructions under “Initial Start-up” using only the
upper Infinite Control. Feed buns with cut side up onto
the conveyor belt in the same manner as for “Toasting
Bread”. If product is too light or too dark, follow instruc-
tions under “Toasting Bread”.
When toasting English muffins, bagels or other products
requiring a longer toasting time, we recommend you start
with the upper Infinite Control knob set at mid-point (#5)
and vary the conveyor speed to obtain the desired
toasting results. Rye, whole wheat and raisin breads
may also require a slightly slower conveyor speed.
WARMING CROISSANTS:
A croissant is perfect when it is served warm. It should
be golden brown, crisp and flaky on the outside, and light
and slightly moist on the inside.
Follow instructions under “initial Start-up”. Start with an
Upper Infinite Control setting of #2 and a lower Infinite
Control setting of #6. After settings accordingly for your
product and preference.
Feed croissants onto conveyor belt. Check finished
croissant for color, crispness and temperature of interior.
