CONTROL PANEL FEATURES
Main Power Switch - This switch is located to the left of the panel, has three positions: Stand-by, Off and Full Power. It
controls the power going to the conveyor system and the two heating zones. When the switch is in the “Full” position all
available power is reaching the heating elements. When the switch is in the “Stand-by” position, only half the available
voltage is reaching the heating elements. When the switch is in the “Off” position, no power is reaching the heating ele-
ments or the conveyor system. To operate this toaster you must have the Main Power switch in the “Full” position.
Upper and Lower Heater Control Knobs - Located to the right of the panel and below the energy saver switch, these two
controls regulate the upper and lower heating elements. To increase the temperature in the toasting chamber, rotate these
controls to a higher number. To decrease the temperature in the toasting chamber, rotate these controls to a lower num-
ber. NOTE: To completely stop power to the heating elements, turn these controls to the “OFF” position.
TOASTING BREAD PRODUCTS
Toasting bread products may seem to be a simple process, but the results can be easily affected by a number of factors.
The first consideration is the type of product being toasted. Varieties of bread, such as whole wheat, rye, white, English
muffins, bagels and buns, have different requirements to become perfectly toasted. Dryness or moisture content of the
bread (mostly described as “freshness”, with more moisture being the fresher), sugar content and the thickness of the slice
or bun all play a predominate role during toasting. Your ST-1 toaster is designed to accommodate these varieties of bread
products by adjusting the conveyor speed to create lighter or darker toasting and to allow for toasting thicker products that
contain more moisture such as English muffins or fresh bagels. It is normal to operate the toaster in the lower ranges of the
speed control or increase the heat control settings to perform toasting of these more difficult products.
When going through these transitional periods, adjust conveyor speed faster or slower accordingly. It is suggested that you
set the conveyor speed at a lower number for thicker products or when toaster is cool and to a higher number when
toasting thinner products or when toaster is on but has been idle for a period of time.
OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
After the toaster is level, reflector tray and receiving tray have been properly installed, and the toaster is connected to the
proper voltage outlet, follow these procedures to begin toasting:
1. Flip Main Power Switch to “Full” position, and Conveyor Speed Control to #7.
2. Set Heat Controls to #5. (NOTE: If toasting buns or other products requiring only one-sided toasting, set only the
Upper Heat control to #5. Set the Lower Heater control to the “Off” position). The recommended initial setting is #5. If
you require darker toast color, rotate knobs to a higher number. If you require a lighter toast color, rotate knobs to a
lower number. Some experimentation will be required to obtain desired results with your individual product. Dryness of
bread, voltage differences, and sugar content of a bread product all affect toast color. Whole grain, rye and other
breads with low sugar content will require a higher setting to produce medium toast color.
3. Allow a 20 minute warm-up period.
4. Place bread product onto conveyor belt. When possible, always place product side by side to achieve maximum
production output. (NOTE: If toasting products requiring one-sided toasting, place product onto conveyor belt with
CUT SIDE UP.
5. Finished product will automatically be released and slide down the receiving tray. Leaving the toast in the receiving
tray allows it to stay warm until needed.
6. If finished product is too light, try rotating upper or lower heater controls to a higher number. If product is too dark, try
rotating upper or lower heating control to a lower number. Adjusting the conveyor speed setting to a higher or lower
number respectively speeds up or slows down the conveyor. IMPORTANT: Always allow a 5 minute warm-up or cool-
down period when making adjustments to the heater controls.
7. When toaster is not in constant use, set switch to the “STAND-BY” position. CAUTION: When switching to this
position, always come to a full stop at the “Off” position first to avoid damage to the switch. When returning to
“Full” Power position for normal operation mode, allow a 5 minute warm-up period before resuming toasting operation.
(If desired, return to Full power and make a slight reduction in the conveyor speed. This slower speed allows you to
start toasting immediately while unit is returning to full power. After approximately 5 minutes, return conveyor speed to
original setting).
