INTRODUCTION

The Hatco Toast-Qwik®Electric Conveyor Toaster is
specially designed to speed the toasting operation.
Products for toasting pass through a heating chamber for
rapid and thorough toasting of products. Dryness,
moisture, sugar content and thickness of bread product
affect the ability to achieve the perfect toasted product.
Conveyor speed, not temperature, determines the
toasting color.

Hatco toasters are quality built to meet the demands of
foodservice operations and provide years of trouble-free
performance. The metal-sheathed tubular heating
elements are guaranteed against breakage and burnout
for two years. (If failure of one element should occur,
your Hatco toaster will continue to operate - the
production may be slightly lower.)

This manual provides the installation, safety and
operating instructions for the Toast-Qwik Electric

Conveyor Toasters. We recommend all installation,
operating and safety instructions appearing in this
manual be read prior to installation or operation of your
Hatco Electric Conveyor Toaster. Safety instructions that
appear in this manual after a warning symbol and the
words WARNING or CAUTION printed in bold face
are very important. WARNING means there is the
possibility of serious injury or death to yourself or
others. CAUTION means there is the possibility of
minor or moderate injury. CAUTION without the
symbol signifies the possibility of equipment or property
damage only.

Your Hatco Toast-Qwik Electric Conveyor Toaster is a
product of extensive research and field testing. The
materials used were selected for maximum durability,
attractive appearance and optimum performance. Every
unit is thoroughly inspected and tested prior to shipment.

CAUTIONS

1. Locate the unit at the proper counter height, in
an area that is convenient for use. The location
should be level to prevent the unit or its
contents from accidentally falling, and strong
enough to support the weight of the unit.

2. Do not place anything on top of the toaster;
doing so could damage toaster or subject
personnel to possible injury.

3. The toasting of coated products such as garlic
bread, cheese sandwiches and sweet rolls is
NOT recommended. Residue will reduce toaster
performance and could possibly ignite inside
the toaster.

4. When setting up the unit for operation, make
sure power to the unit is off and the toaster is at
room temperature. Failure to do so could result
in personal injury.

5. Some exterior surfaces on the unit will get hot.
Use caution when touching these areas to avoid
injury.

CAUTIONS

1. Do not locate the toaster in an area subject to
excessive temperatures or grease from grills,
fryers, etc. Excessive temperatures could cause
damage to the unit. Do not place toaster in an
area that restricts air flow around the motor
compartment. Do not place toaster in direct
discharge path of air conditioning vent or
makeup air vent.

2. Plug toaster into an electrical outlet of the
correct voltage, size, and plug configuration. If
the plug and receptacle do not match, contact a
qualified electrician to determine the proper
voltage and size, and install the proper
electrical outlet.

3. Abrasive cleaners could scratch the finish of
your Toast-Qwik toaster.

4. Failure to lubricate the rear motor bearing as
recommended will reduce the operating life of
the motor and possibly void the warranty.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

1

WARNINGS

1. To avoid any injury, turn the power switch off,
unplug the unit from the power source and
allow to cool before performing any
maintenance.

2. For safe and proper operation, the unit must be
located at a reasonable distance from
combustible walls and materials. If safe
distances are not maintained, discoloration or
combustion could occur. Do not locate toaster
under shelving or closer than 12" (31 cm) from
the ceiling.

3. Allow a minimum of 1" (3 cm) along the sides.
Allow a clearance of 12" (31 cm) along the front
and rear discharge to ensure proper operation
and safety.

4.

If service is required on this unit, contact
your Authorized Hatco Service Agent, or
contact the Hatco Service Department at
800-558-0607 or 414-671-6350; fax 800-690­2966 or International fax [phone].

5. This product has no “user” serviceable parts.
To avoid damage to the unit or injury to
personnel, use only Authorized Hatco Service
Agents and Genuine Hatco Parts when
service is required.

6. Genuine Hatco Replacement Parts are
specified to operate safely in the
environments in which they are used. Some
aftermarket or generic replacement parts do
not have the characteristics that will allow
them to operate safely in Hatco equipment. It
is essential to use Hatco Replacement Parts
when repairing Hatco equipment. Failure to
use Hatco Replacement Parts may subject
operators of the equipment to hazardous
electrical voltage, resulting in electrical shock
or burn.
