setting for the size bun you are toasting. Improper
stop block setting results in lighter or darker
toasted buns or crushed buns.See figure 1.
IMPORTANT: To change stop block setting, depress
the right stop block to disengage locking pin and turn in
either direction.

3. Place (6) clubs on bun spatula.
4. Lift upper bun board and insert spatula with crowns
5. Lower bun board down on top of spatula. Slide
spatula out.
6. Insert spatula with clubs into center compartment.
Slide spatula out.
7. Insert the tray with heels into the lower compartment
of toaster.
8Pull handle/lever assembly forward and down on top
of heels. This will activate the timer assembly.

1. Unplug toaster and allow it to cool down.
2. Shake a small amount of cleanser on platen.
3. Dampen toaster platen cleaning pad and wipe off
top and bottom of platen.
IMPORTANT: Using a cleaning pad other than the
one provided may be too abrasive and take off the
nickel plating, causing buns to stick. Replacement
pads should be purchased from your local Prince
Castle Service Center. Order part #167-2.
CAUTION: Do not pour water on the
platen. This may cause an electrical
hazard and damage switches, linkage,
etc., voiding the warranty.
4. Starting from the center, proceed to clean platen by
wiping in a front to back motion with grain of platen.
5. Using a moist cloth, wipe off platen to remove all
cleaning materials.
6. After cleaning season toaster platen with a light
coat of shortening.
MAINTENANCE
IMPORTANT: To convert a 35 second toaster to a 55
second toaster, turn 35-55 second time select switch,
located underneath lower electrical box, to 55 second
position. Recalibrate temperature on both platens from
(216° +/- 3°C) to (204° +/- 3°C).
Under normal conditions with proper use and cleaning,
very little nonscheduled maintenance will be required
for this toaster. However, this section provides procedures to check or replace various parts within the
toaster. Before replacement of any parts refer to the
troubleshooting section for assistance in determining
the cause of malfunction.
