INTRODUCTION

The SODIR Gyros grills are designed for roasting different kinds of meat such as veal, lamb or chicken. Depending on the model, these grills are equipped with 3, 4 or 5 independently controlled cal-rod heating elements ensuring effective vertical broiling. The heating elements are enclosed in the moveable housing. The heavy-duty adjustable spit is removable for easy meat handling. The grills feature a single-piece stamped base provided with a round cutout for the disposal of waste and a removable drawer for waste collection. The units are constructed of food service quality stainless steel and uniquely designed to provide for quick disassembly and easy clean up.

SPECIFICATIONS

INSTALLATION

The SODIR gyros grills need to be connected to a grounded outlet of proper voltage (208/240V, 1 H) or wired directly to a grounded junction box depending on the model. DO NOT place the unit in a damp area or near steam sources.

OPERATION

WARNING: Do not connect the unit to the electric power supply before the set-up is completed

INITIAL SET-UP 

Before you use your SODIR Gyros Grill, we recommend that you clean its food contact surfaces. Your SODIR Gyros Grill comes from the factory assembled, but the moving parts are secured by tape to prevent them from moving in transit. Make sure that all the tape is removed, as well as the protective plastic film is taken off. Make sure that the spit is locked safely in place. To verify, try to move the spit back and force without lifting it. In order to move the heater housing towards the operator and back, tum the knobs of the two (2) locking screws counterclockwise until the housing moves easily. After the initial set-up is completed, the gyros grm can be connected to the power source.

COOKING
The gyros grill is now ready for operation. To position meat on the spit, lift the latter off the locking device. Adjust the position of the bottom spit platform, if necessary. After the meat is positioned on the spit, return the spit to the unit. Align the bottom tip of the spit with opening in the locking head and secure the upper bulb-shaped tip in the spit holder. Push the spit down and turn it slightly until it is locked. If it is necessary to adjust the distance between the heating elements and the meat, unlock the heater housing by turning the knobs of the two (2) locking screws counterclockwise, move the housing and then tighten the locking screws by turning the knobs clockwise until the housing is locked in the desired position .. After the spit is loaded and in place, turn the motor on by turning the On/Off switch at the lower part of the unit (the base) to the “ON” position. Each heating zone is controlled by a rotary selector switch. The selector switch allows the element to be operated on full power (indicated by marking “Max”) or half power (indicated by marking “Min”) with “Off’ positions marked by the numeral “O”. When the heating zone is on, the corresponding red pilot lamp will light. When the top layer of the meat is broiled to the desired condition, the operator can stop the rotation of the spit by turning the “On/Off’ switch to the “Off’ position in order to ensure quick and easy slicing or shaving. In order not to overcook the meat when the spit does not rotate, we recommend to move the heater housing away from the meat. To rotate the meat on the spit manually, stop the motor by tu ming the On/Off switch to its “Off’ position and disconnect the spit platform from the spit by removing the pin at the bottom part of the !:iPit. Tum the spit by hand using the spit platform. Please remember that since the heating elements are independently controlled, switching all unnecessary element(s) to the “Off’ or to the “Min” position will result in energy savings.

CLEANING

WARNING: Disconnect (unplug) electrical power supply before cleaning Cleaning is very important in maintaining a safe and well working machine. BE SURE TO UNPLUG THE UNIT FROM THE POWER SOURCE PRIOR TO CLEANING. Allow the metal surfaces to cool down sufficiently in order to safely handle it. After the unit has cooled, remove the Spit and drip tray and clean these items in pot sink using standard cleaning detergents. The housing, heating elements and base should be cleaned using a cloth lightly dampened with a clean soapy solution. Use a clean lint-free cloth to remove excess water or soap.

• DO NOT 
  • spray the housing with any liquid
  • wash the unit under running water
  • allow water to drip into the housing around the electrical components
  • spray hot elements with any liquid
