OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
A. PREPARATlON/WARM-UP:
1. Main Power: Turn toaster on by pressing the Main Power switch up. Turn the toaster off by
pressing the Main Power switch down.
2. Temperature: Set the Top Heat knob and the Bottom Heat knob to the 6 setting (mid
range) for warm-up. (Power to the heating elements is off when these knobs are in the off
position.) Not available. on AT-5 Model.
3. Speed: Set the Conveyor Speed Knob to the 5 setting for warm-up.
4. Stand-By: Set the Stand-By switch to Full Heat. Not available on AT-5 Model.
5. Warm-Up Time: Warm-up time is approximately 7 minutes.
B. USE/SPECIAL FEATURES
1. Product: Place product on the conveyor. It will automatically be drawn through the toaster
at a speed determined by the Conveyor Speed setting. Your product may be
heated/toasted on one side or both sides depending on where your temperature control
knobs (top heat & bottom heat) are set.
Caution: The product is inverted as it is returned to the operator. Therefore, toppings,
butter, or icings are not recommended.
Product over 4 1/2" x 1 5/8” (11.5 cm x 4.2 cm) is not recommended
2. Heating & Toasting Recommendations: The darkness or lightness of the toasting is
determined by the speed and temperature.
a) Speed “1” is the slowest setting and will help produce the darkest toast. "9" is the
fastest setting and will help produce the lightest toast.
b) Temperature: TOP HEAT - The MIN. setting will help produce the lightest top-toast.
The MAX. setting will help produce the darkest top toast. Not available on AT-5
Model.
BOTTOM HEAT - The MIN. setting will help produce the lightest bottom-toast. The
MAX. 3, setting will help produce the darkest bottom-toast. Off turns the heating
elements off.
3. These settings are designed for fresh pre-baked products with an approximate internal
temperature of 73°F (23°C). Note: Cooler product requires more heat and/or longer cycle
times. Day-old product requires less heat and/or faster cycle times. (Based on 120V unit).

Toaster temperatures adjust from 100°F (38°C) to approximately 500°F (260°C). The cycle
time adjusts from 30 seconds to 31/2 minutes for product flexibility. Products will require
some experimentation to achieve the appropriate balance of heat control and conveyor
speed. Each time the controls are changed, allow about 5 minutes for the temperatures to
stabilize.
4. Stand-By: Always set Stand-By switch to Full Heat when toasting. When not toasting (or
during slack periods), the stand-by position cuts off power to the top heating element and
reduces energy consumption by 50% while allowing for faster warm-up than if the toaster
were off completely.
Remember: The "Stand-By" switch must be in the "Full Heat” position, or the toaster
will not toast.
