Checking the Conveyor Belt Chains
(Every 3–6 Months)
NOTE: The Bun Thickness Compression Knobs
(Figure 3) must be set to 6 and F prior to measur-
ing, removing, or reinstalling the Conveyor Belt
Chains.
MEASURING CONVEYOR BELT CHAINS
1. Turn the unit off, unplug the power cord, and
allow the unit to cool.
2. Remove the Bun Feeder and Heat Shield (Figure
1) and set the Bun Thickness Compression
Knobs to 6 and F.
3. Open both Conveyor Covers and pull the Belt
Wrap Pin out of the zipper (Figure 6).
4. Remove the Belt Wrap.
5. Facing the toaster, locate the approximate center-
point of the Conveyor Belt Chain.
6. Pull the Conveyor Belt Chain away from the edge
of the toaster (Figure 9).
7. Stand a U.S. Dime on end between the frame
and the chain (Figure 9).
8. If the gap is significantly wider than the coin,
remove links as described below.
9. Disconnect the Conveyor Belt Chain by squeez-
ing any two links together and unhooking both
ends (Figure 10). Needle-nose pliers may be
used.
NOTE: There are two small 1/2” links on each side
of the Conveyor Belt Chain. The rest are large 3/4”
links.
10. Remove one 1/2” link from the belt.
11. Reassemble the Conveyor Belt Chain onto the
sprockets as described in Replacing Conveyor
Belt Chains.
12. Measure the gap again to ensure it is not too
tight.
13. Check the opposite side of the toaster using the
same steps.
NOTE: If the Conveyor Belt Chain is too tight to be
reassembled, remove an additional small 1/2” link
and install a large 3/4” link in its place. This will
increase the length of the Conveyor Belt Chain by
1/4” overall.
REPLACING CONVEYOR BELT CHAINS
1. Turn the power off, unplug the power cord, and
allow the unit to cool.
2. Remove the Bun Feeder and Heat Shield and
set the Bun Thickness Compression Knobs to 6
and F.
3. Open both Conveyor Covers and pull the Belt
Wrap Pin out of the zipper.
4. Remove and discard the old Belt Wrap(s)
5. Disconnect the Conveyor Belt Chain by squeez-
ing any two links together and unhooking both
ends of one line (Figure 10).
6. Place the replacement Conveyor Belt Chain on
the top sprockets with hook ends down.
NOTE: The ends of the hooks must point down
(Figure 10).
7. Wrap the Conveyor Belt Chain around the top
and lower sprockets and connect by hooking both
ends together.
NOTE: Make sure the Conveyor Belt Chain is
installed between the upper Support Rod and the
lower Support Rod.
