E. Conveyor

The on-off switch for the conveyor motor is on the digital control panel. Also on the control panel is the digital conveyor speed control. The digital control can be adjusted from 1-10 minutes bake time (conveyor speed). Refer to Figure 3-3.

Conveyor speed is measured by the amount of time it takes for an item to go through the bake chamber of the oven.

MEASURING CONVEYOR SPEED

See Figure 3-4 and 3-5.

To check conveyor speed, place a product item at the entrance end of the baking chamber as shown. Time how long it takes for the leading edge of the item to go from the entrance end of the baking chamber to the exit end. This should be the conveyor speed shown on the conveyor speed digital control.

NOTE: In Figure 3-4 and 3-5, the oven shown is with the conveyor running left to right.

WARNING

A possibility of injury from rotating parts and electric shock exists in the oven. Never disassemble or clean the oven with the BLOWER switch or any other oven control turned “ON” or “I”. Turn “OFF” or “O” and lockout or tagout all electric power to the oven before attempting to clean or service the oven.
