Feeder, Heat Shield, and Bun Chute (Figure 1).
Wipe them with a damp sanitized towel and allow

3. Remove the Release Sheet and place it on a
clean, flat dry surface. Wipe the silver side with
a clean towel dampened with Multipurpose

second clean towel dampened with sanitizer and
allow it to air dry before continuing. Repeat this
step on the reverse side of the Release Sheet.

the Belt Wrap (if used) or Conveyor Belt Chain
from left to right and top to bottom with a clean

by draping it over both sides of the Platen with
the crease centered on the Platen.

prolong the life of the Release Sheet.

over the lower rear yellow Support Rod. Install
the Heat Shield with the Release Sheet retainer
clips securely over the Release Sheet and Platen.
12. Reinstall the Bun Feeder and plug in the unit.
Important! Make sure the Heat Shield is activat-
ing the Conveyor Safety Interlock Switch. The
