AUTOMATXG, TOASTER MODEL T~_

The Model~ T9 Sunbeam Silent Automatic Toaster differs from pwevioUs Sunbeam
toasters in design and in the addition of a selective "po.~-up" feature by

which the toast may be made either to rise automatically or to remain inside

the~toaster at the end of the toas$ing period by the setting of a control
knob. The thermostat timing mec~mnism is so arranged that it will toast

bre .ad..~.t,.o .the same reasonably uniform degree of brownness whether the toaster
is hot or cold. No toaster, however, will automatlc’~lly and effectively
compensate for voltage fluctuations or for considerable differences in

bread (as between whole wheat and white bread, or fresh and dry bread),
but such variations can be taken care of by a change in thin set.ring of .the

Bakelite adjustment knob on the side of the Sunbeam Toaster. For large
voltage variations a second adjustment can be made readily as described in-

the Toaster instruction booklet, (one of these booklets is attached to next

page) and as explained in Section 3N-3 of this bulletin.

HOW TO SERVICE MODEL ~T9 SUNBEAM AUTOMATIC TOASTER

Plug toaster co~d into electric power circuit of same’ voltage as that marked

on name plate at bottom of toaster. The electric power circuih must have
sufficient capacity fdr ~upplying the Toaster with.the wattage it require~

list attached to this bulletin)..is lowered the switch closes, all elements ..
will heat to a cherry red .color, ~nd the signal light wil.! glow. ’ ’ ¯

The main thermostat blade (key number 47) is heated by the ’thermostat heater
element (5), the heat is reflected to the thermostat by the reflector (3)
and the amount of ~heat reaching the thermostat blade is 96gulated by moving

this reflector through the cam (13) ’turned by t~e thermostat adjustment"

knob (24). The temperature at which the thermostat snaps off is regulate~
by the tension of the coiled spring (48) which can be adjusted byturning.
the nut (49A). The thermostat blade will snap with a ’~61ick" against the

flat s.urface of its supporting casting. But before it reaches this surface

the thermostat blade hits the end of lever (33) which opens the switch and

if the ’control (2~D) is set to "pop-up" the toast ra~k will move up, coming

to a slow stop. The cushioning cylinder (56A) dampens the action of the

"pop-up" spring. If the control k~ob (24D) is inthe position marked "Keeps

Toast Warm", the movable handle (15) must be raised by hand to remove the
toast. The thermostat blade (~7) cools rapidly and snaps back into its orig-

inal position with a second "click" a few seconds after the flrst~ thus re­setting the thermostat, The ~ext toast must not be started until after this

second click. The auxili~-~ t-~e ~rmos-~at ~ compensates for the temperature
rise in the metal parts of the toaster~ Without the auxiliary thermostat,

the toast would tend to become lighter as successive slices, were made.

and lower shaft assembly (10) may be removed after the four shoulder screws
(IOA) have been taken out. The upper shaft assembly (9) is .pushed to one
side and through the extruded opening in.the element frame assembly (1)..

Pivoting on the uoper shaft assembly (9) is the ejector lever (35), cushion-

ing cylinder (56A) and roller bracket (3~) which are securely held in posi­ticn by retainer clips. The lower shaft and switch assembly (10) cannot be
removed until the switch locking lever (33) is disengaged from ~he switch

a.rm (36A). To do this, bend back the bearing suoports for the locking lever

~33) at the bottom of the element frame assembly (1) with a pair of pliers.
The locking lever and its torsion spring (33A) may be readily lifted out ~of

place. The lower shaft assembly (10) may now be removed from element frame
by pushing the shaft to one side through its bearings in the element frame.
The switch assembly (36) and the moving contact points (36B) are part of"this’

assembly (10) and if they are damaged the entire assembly must be reolaced.

To remove control knobs (2~ and 2AD) and cams (13 and 22), remove hexagon
nuts (2AA),’lock washers (2&B) and tension washers (2&C).

To ~emove toaster heating element assemblies (6,

in ~del T9 Sunbeam Toasters are graded and matched for resistance value.

To obtain uniform toast all of the elements used in a toaster must have the
sam___~erag~_~number, l, 2, 3, ~ or 5, stamped on the upper metal border of the

element and this same number must also appear on the thermostat heater element

(see Section 2L). Before removing the toasting elements, remove the sixteen

guide wires (19 & 20). Lift the wires out of holes with a small hook or bent

wire. Do not stretch the wires more than necessary in removing or the
may lose their tension. Keep the eight longer center guide wires separate
from the eight shorter ones ~o avoid confusion later in reassembling. R~-

mote the element frame top (18) by.bending outward with a pa~r of pliers the

To remove reflector (3). - The reflector may be removed by filing ~r cutting,

one :flattened end of the hinge pin: (~) and puili~g it out. Before reassem- .....

bling toaster; be sure that the inner surface of the reflector is clean and
bright. Dust or burned’ marks on this reflector will affect the timing¯, of

~he,thermostat by reducing the heat which" re~ches it.

..~ ¯ and if’they need replacement’the fram~ assembly(1) ’should be replaced.. ¯

To remov~ thermostat heat’e~’ eie~ent (5), first remove the"two terminal screws

(73) which connect the element (5) to bus-bars (25 & 26). Mica washers (3OA

3. Assembling Model T~ Toaster’-’

3-A.

To fit toasting elements (6, 7, 8) into element frame. (1), make sure that all
elements used have the same grade number stamped on the upper metal border

(see Section 2-G). For correct electrical connections, refer to the wiring
diagram on page 1 of this bulletin. (When repairing 200 to 250 volt toasters

observe bus-bar connections before taking apart. Elements on such toasters

are connected in series so that bus-bar connections are not made as indicated

below:) Fix elements in place by fastening terminal screws on bus-bar as
tightly as possible to prevent loo°sening in operation of the toaster and poet

electrical contact. On llO-120 volt (and 125-130 volt) toasters% bus-bar (26)
connects terminal stud (30) to thermostat heating element (5). Bus-bar (25)

connects other end of the thermostat heating element to left end of front
t6asting element and to right end of center toasting element (7). Bus-ba~.

(2~) connects right ends of front and rear toasting elements (6 & 8)., B~s~bar

(27) connects left ends of rear and Center toasting elements. Bus-~’ (~) is

permanently riveted to one fixed switch contact point and connects it to left
end of center element:.~(7) and fixed bus-bar~ (1B) connects other ~wltch con-

tact to terminal stud, thus completing the circuit ~s shown on the wiring dia-

gram.

3-B ~

To fit top for element frame (18), put six porcelain insulators (59) in posi­tion on frame (1) and fit top (18) in position by ~bending ears over lugs on

element frame. (See note under Key No. 18 on parts list). Be sure that top
is firmly held incorrect position.

3-C.

Guide wires (19 & 20). - The long (19) and short (20) guide wires may be re­placed, long ones in the center, by first hooking the 16wer.ends to the open-.

ings in small lugs on the bottom of the ~lement frame and then pulling the

t~p loops up with a small hook to engage the openings in the element frame

to.~. (.i8.). ..........................................

3-Do

Bottom Mounting.Plate Assembly (Ii). Before assembling the bottom mounting
plate to the toaster, the adjusting cam for reflector (13) and the ejector
cam (22) should be ass~embled to their respective bearings. The order of as-

sembly for each one is as follmws: Control Knob (2~), spring, tension washer
(2~C), bearing cam lock washer (2~B) and hexagon nut (2~A). Then place the

bottom mounting plate assembly under the

~

element frame (1) so that .the pre-.. !

Jecting lugs. of element frame enter corresponding slots in the mounting plate.
Twist .the lugs Just enough to insure a ~ e~n~a~e.ment~ between the element

frame and mounting plate. ~ ~, .... ; ¯

3-E,

The reflector (3) for the thermostat heating ass.embly is mounted on t~e element

frame assembly by inserting reflector pin (~) through the bracket, openings and
hinge in the back of the reflector. Projection o.n.top of ~eflector should be

outside, not under, reflector spring (31). Flatten end of. pin (~) so that it
will not fall out. Turn the cam adjustment knob (2~), observing whether the
reflector moves freely. Movement of the reflectbr changes the amount of heat
being reflected to the thermostat b~ade (~7). ~For light toast the angle @f.o ~ i

the reflec.tor is such that a maxim~ um amount of heat is reflected from the

~

. thermostat h~ating element (5) to the thermostat blade (~7), This causes the

..0

thermostat to snap off sooner."

3-F.- Ejecto~ Pawl and Ejector Release Pawl (~8). - Two pawls are assembled on the

same stud in the element frame assembly (1). The lower pawl is operate~ by

the ejector cam (22) which !s turned by the control knob (2~D). ~ Atension

spring (29) fits about the pivoting stud and a~plies pressure-o~

Make certain that this spring fits properly

3-G. Upper and Lo~er Shaft Assemblies (9 & 10) and Rack Asse.m~ly:(56). - The upper

.~ and lower shafts and the rack assembly. (56) should be assembled at the same

time. Insert the br.ead-carrying racks carefully through, the lower ends of
the slots at the bottom o~the element frame (1) from the reflector end~of

the element frame assembly. The upper parallel bars should be swung over ~the
top of the ~toaster and sprung apart where necessary to bring them to their ap-

proximate location at the ejector end of the toaster. The lower parallel bars
are easily located after the rack is in its position i~ the toasting chamber.

The ~end .of the upper shaft assembly~(9) is inserted through the ~pen~n~s in

side of the element frame which serve as bearings for the shaft. The ejector

lever (35) is placed so that it can engage with the ejector pawl (58). The

switch roller assembly is raised so that the bracket engages the rack assembly
in the correct manner. The cushioning cylinder (56A) is fitted over the pis-,

(!i..~. 3-Ho SwitchSpring (23) and.Ejector Spring (21). -The switch spring is fitted.

i~ii~ . between:the notched projections on’switbh lever (36) and slot in the ele-

ment ’frame (1) directly behind the’upper shaft. The ejector spring (21)
is fitted between the adjusting screw (32) projecting through a slot’in:

I

the bottom mo6nting plate (ll) and the top of ejector lever (35).’ Tofit

this spring, remove the .adjustment nut (21A)from adjusting screw (32) .and

loop the end of the spring (21) through the screw. Lower this through the

slot in the mounting plate and fit adjustment nut (21A)~ With the end of
a small screw drlver~. raise the other end of the spring to the hole in the
ejector lever (35).

3-I. Switch Locking Lever (3~)~ - The switch lockihg l~ver (33) may be replaced

.as follows: Torsion spring (33A) should be fitted about pivoting pin so’

that the switch lever (33) moves downward inside switch arm (36A). ’ Insert
the pivoting pin of the lever into its proper location on the.underside 5f

the bottom mounting plate. Bend the lugs with th~ bearing holes up to nor­mal position to locate the locking lever. ’When the plastic bas.e (16).’has.

been put on .the mounting plate, examine the Switch locking lever for clear-

ance with the thermostat blade (~7)’ at the reflector end of the toaster,
It is important that the switch locking lever be from 3/6~: t6 3/32 inch a-

bove the top of the casting uoon which the thermostat blade is mounted.
This is checked after fitting plastic base (16).by inserting gauge T20~9i-l:

in position where thermostat bracket (50) fits. Theend of the lever should
enter but not pass the step i~ the gauge. The test should be made with mov-

¯ "able

hahdle (15) lower~d."~’ ’ " ’

(

3-J. Cut-Out’Rod (17). - When.the cut-outrod is in place, check its effect on

the switch locking lever (33)’by.r~ising and lowering racM. assembly (~6)~

As the rack assembly moves upward, the cut-out rod will operate s.witch .lock-

ing lever (33) and open the circuit.

feature .of the toaster~ Turn the control knob (2~D) to the right (Keeps .

toast warm) as far as’it will go; this action permits torsion spring (29)
to move a pawl into engagement with the ejector lever (35), when the toaster

rack (56) is lowered.. When the toaster rack is raised again to its starting
position, the lever remains in engagement with the pawl. When the control

knob (2~D) is turned.~.~o the left (pops toast up) the ejector lever is
leased by the ejector release pawl, (58)o The extension spriAg (21) which
has been placed under tension on first lowering the rack assembly (56), ~op­orates on the ejector lever (35) through shaft’to raise the rack. During

the toasting operation, control is effected from the thermostat through the

switch locking lever assembly (33), switch arm (36A), and ejector pawl (58)

which controls movement of the ejector, lever(35), Be sure that the tor-

sion spring. (29) fitting about ejector pawl stud (58.)_ applie_s_ tension.ta .....

TO check operation of the toaster when the control knob (2~D)is in the "pop­up" position., lay the toaster on its side so as to take the weight’ off th~
switch locking lever (33), Lower the rack assembly,(56).

".

The switch’arm
(36A) should engage the switch locking lever (33). Lift the end of the..:
switch locking lever which makes contact with the thermostat. The rack as-

sembl~ should move up on the release of the switch .arm (36A) and.ejector
lever (35). The movement is dampened by cushioning cylinder and piston.(63)

and rack should not slap against top of. slots in element .~frame (1).

3-L. Fr.ont,’Center and Rear Sections of Body.(52,~O, S1), - ~en assembling the

.body to the toaster, the front and rear covers should be put on first, tak-

ing care that the.front section with glass signal disc (52A)01s.located in
front of the. signal element (57).. Use screws ’(~i). in fastening the bodies
tothe toaster. The stationary handle (39) is attached to the center sec-

.hio.n by two screws (39A). The center section (~O) may now be slipped into

pla.ce over the top of the toaster, with .the projecting armfor the movable
handle through the slot in the center body..¯ ’The movable handle (15) is at-

. tached by set screw (15A) to lever projecting from the side of the toaster,

Attachment of pla.~tic base (16) and cord (14). - The cord is held in posi-

3-M.

tion on the base by two cord clamps (5~), screws (66). and nuts ~(67)~ The
plastic base is fa~tened to the mounting plate with six’screws (16A & 16B)o

Electrical connection~ are established at terminal studs (30) by hexagon ~
nuts (3OD)~

3-N. Bmttom Cover and Thermostat Assembly (50), .- The bottom cover and thermostat

assembly is fastened to the .toaster base with four Gulmite screws (6CA)~.. It
should be carefully guided into position so that the end of locking lever (33)
slips .under main thermostat blade (~7).

: ,’ ...

3-N1.Adjustment of Thermostat. - The thermostat.may be adjusted for. correcttoast-

ing with the two alzbratzng weights (Tool No, 2 & No, 3). All thermostat
adjustments should be conducted in a room at temperature of 75 to 80 degrees

C ¯

Fahrenheit, The bottom cover and thermostat bracket assembly (50) is placed

on a flat table, Be sure that all thermostat parts are at room temperature,
Place the rubber bumper of small weight (Tool No, 3 - 1.85 Lbs.) upon the cen­ter of tharmost.at blade (47) directly opposite thermostat, stop (&3), but be

sure that the stop does not interfere. With a fing6r, depress the thermo-

star blade to its down position as the smaller weight wiil be insufficient

to cause the¯ blade to snap down~. With Tool No, ~, turn set. scr.ew .for

auxiliary the~o~ta~ adjustment (55) to the right against the lip.on thermo­stat blade (~7). Then carefully balance the smaller weight so that it rests

in a perpendicular posit.ion on the center of blade. Hold weight by means of.
sliding collar on rod,.’:~Continu6 to tighten set screw (55) until .the thermo-~ i.

stat blade (~7) acquir~~ just enough tensi6n to force the blade up. with the
snmll weight restingoin the middle. If the weight should rise without the set

screw (55) touching end of main thermostat blade, replace the main th.er­mostat blade (~7).. This setting may be accurately determined by: sliding the..

collar up and. down the rod. The weight plus the friction., f~Sm the colla..r

slidin~ db’wn should suffice to keep the blade down, but the~.weight minus the

friction f~om collar, sliding u_~ should allow the thermostat to snap up. A
few .trials will soon give the¯operator, the proper "feel" for hap. dling weight

3-N2o

After adjusting auxiliary thermostat adjustment Screw (55). as, explained a-

bove,"the Tool No, 2heavier weight (2 ibs) is placed on the rod on top of

the smaller weights. Bothweights are then placed in the center of main

¯ thermostat blade .(~7) and the tension¯ increased in adjusting spring (~8) ~y .r:.

turning spanner nut (~9A)"until the blade just has sufficient tension to sup-..

porE’ the lar~er weight when ~he blade is up in its curved ’position~. Movement ,.­of .’ ~liding collar ~ should allow blade 5o. remain, up, and movement of c611a.r.~ .¢ :.

dow~ s~ould force the blade down. At this point, recheck the auxiliary ther-...it:..

mos---~at adjustment as in paragraph 3-N1 andthen, check the main thermostat .’ -..

spring again as in this paragraph.

~

I"~I13-N3. After adjusting thermostate~- make 3 or A slie.es of toast, If dark of light,

turn the adjustment nut (~9A) for spring (~8’) in accordance with instructions

on the b6ttom of the casting. If. the set ~crew’(55) has been set correctly
as outlined in 3-N1, the auxiliary thermostat should require no further ad-

justment to produce uniform toast...

First’ establish where, repairs are to be made. Check the performance of the

toaster as in .Section lo I~ any or all of the heating elements fail to light,

check the electrical circuib as directed in. Section ~A be:low. For .other de­partures, from normal operation,, check toast.er in accordance with instructions

given’in Section ~-B to ~-Go ..

If toasting elements do not heat when handle (l~).. is pulled down (testing
electrical connections): -Plac’e toaster upon its side and open the crumb

plate (53), On the front side of toaster, examine the connec.tions at. the ’-

two terminal studs (.30), which are prote~ted by terminal insulators. (61),~
To check cord and plug assembly (l&), remo.~e ins~ulator.s (61), place one t.ip ..

of test%r set on one term. inal stud and the other tip on one prong of the at­tachment plug and then the other (any. circuit continuity .test. lamp may

used to make this t.est), ¯ The test lamp sho.uld iight for one of the. ~onnec-

tions. Repeat for the other terminal stud (30) and if lamp fails t~ ~ight

for. either of the terminals, replace cord set. (1£).. The 3 toasting elements,
the signal element ’and the thermostat heater should also be examined ~d

tested for open circuit by placing .the tips of the tester set on the terminals
