PARTS & CONTROLS
HHeeaatt LLiimmiitt RReesseett
We have designed the controls to be as easy to use as possible. Please familiarise yourself with all controls before using.
Model shown DCT 2
Dualit conveyor toasters are equipped with a rotary power saver switch. Turn clockwise or counterclockwise to obtain the following positions:
FFUULLLL PPOOWWEERR
When in this position your equipment is at full power and ready to use.
OOFFFF RROOTTAARRYY
Two off positions are provided so that a single rotation to either direction will shut the unit off.
SSTTAANNDDBBYY
The standby position reduces the power consumption by 75%. Using this position during quiet times will save electricity and keep the toaster warm. Use this whenever you know the toaster is not required for the next 10 minutes. When needed, turn the switch to FULL POWER. Recovery time is about 30 seconds.
You can use the conveyor toaster to warm or toast other bread type products such as buns, muffins, bagels and crossiants.
1. Adjust the top and bottom element temperatures to required settings. Ensure any food product used with the conveyor is less than 30mm thick. If larger it may get stuck inside the toaster.
2. For buns and bagels and other items requiring only one side toasting , set the top element to 10 (High) and the bottom to 5 (Medium).

Wipe exterior surface of unit using a
damp cloth once the machine has cooled.
Never allow a build up of crumbs
in the tray as this may cause fire. Clean on a daily basis.
Ensure the cooling fan is clear of dust
and grease.

.
Your Dualit conveyor toaster is equipped with an automatically activated heat limit switch that interrupts the heater tube connections if the ambient temperature in the control box exceeds 190°F (88°C).
This switch can be reset manually by pushing the red button on the bottom of the toaster.
CAUTION: DO NOT OPERATE UNIT
WITHOUT CRUMB TRAY IN PLACE. THE UNIT WILL OVERHEAT AND ACTIVATE THE HEAT LIMIT SWITCH.
1. My toast is unevenly toasted?
aa))
Ensure that heat regulators are set to the highest setting possible and the switch cannot turn any further. Any adjustment to the heat settings will take time to settle and as such these controls should
nnoott
be adjusted whilst making
toast.
For best results set the heat regulators both to full, and the speed to 5. Vary the speed to achieve desired brownness.
HEAT LIMIT SWITCH (RESET)CLEANING PROCEDURES

2. My toast is burning or is underdone?
a) The speed setting should be set at the
half way mark; this can be adjusted to taste, and will take a matter of seconds to settle.
If toasting is too light, turn conveyor speed control counter-clockwise to a lower speed
If toasting is too dark, turn conveyor speed control clockwise to a faster speed
b) Allow at least 10 minutes for the conveyor to heat up and settle from switch on.
c) If the toaster has been left on full power without bread passing through it, the first slices through will burn due to the build up of heat. When the toaster is in an idle period it is advised that the toaster be turned to the ¼ power setting. This will prolong the life span of the elements and reduce the chances of un-even toasting when used again after the idle period.
TROUBLESHOOTING
TROUBLESHOOTING
DO NOT ADJUST THE HEAT SETTINGS WHEN MAKING TOAST, ANY ADJUSTMENT REQUIRED SHOULD BE MADE WITH THE SPEED CONTROL ONLY.
3. My conveyor is overheating?
a) If the conveyor belt continues to run
and the elements have cut out, check the cooling fan is running and free of dust and dirt as the heat limit switch may have tripped.
If the fan is dirty, isolate from the power and clean with a soft brush, leave for ten minutes for the toaster to cool and push the reset button to begin toasting again. (Allow time for the toaster to heat up again)
b) The toaster will also overheat if the crumb tray is not in position when in use. This acts as heat screen and helps protect the internal components vital to the running of the toaster.
c) Allow a clearance of 80mm from the rear of the machine and 30mm gap between machines if two or more machines are placed next to each other.
4. My bread is getting stuck inside the toaster?
a) Ensure the thickness of the bread is no
thicker than 30mm or it will get stuck and may cause fire.
5. Where do I position the conveyor toaster?
a) Ensure there are no shelves or units
directly above the conveyor.
b) Allow ample clearance around the conveyor, minimum 80mm at rear and 30mm at sides. This ensures air can circulate around the conveyor and keep it at optimum operating temperature.
c) Do not cover or obstruct the fan.
6. My elements have gone white?
a) Dualit conveyors use silica glass tube
elements. These may go white over time. Deposits of starch from the bread may build up on the element. This in not harmful in any way nor does it effect the toasting performance.
