Operating Instructions
Using the Rotisserie
Note - Before using your rotisserie, measure your food at
the widest point. If it exceeds 9 1/2, it is too large to fit the
rotisserie. If it is too large, food can be prepared using a
roast holder and the Indirect Cooking Method.
Important safeguards
ƽWARNINGS
Read all instructions before using your rotisserie.
This rotisserie is for outdoor use only.
Remove motor and store in a dry place when not
in use.
Do not touch hot surfaces. Use barbecue mitts.
This rotisserie is not for use by children.
To protect against electrical hazards do not
immerse cord, plugs, or motor in water or other
liquids.
Unplug the motor from outlet when not in use or
before cleaning.
Do not use rotisserie for other than intended use.
Make sure motor is off before placing it on the
motor bracket.
Do not operate the rotisserie motor with a
damaged cord or plug.
Do not operate the rotisserie motor if it should
malfunction.
The rotisserie motor is equipped with a three
prong (grounding) power cord for your protection
against shock hazard.
The power cord should be plugged directly into a
properly grounded three prong receptacle. If use
of an extension cord is required, be sure that it is a
minimum 16 AWG, 3 wire well insulated cord,
marked for OUTDOOR USE ONLY and properly
grounded.
When using an extension cord, make sure it is not
in contact with a hot or sharp surface.
Outdoor extension cords should be marked with
the letters W-A and a tag stating Suitable for
use with outdoor appliances.
Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from
the rotisserie motor power cord.
Do not let cord hang over any sharp edge or hot
surface.
Do not expose to rain.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, keep
extension cord connection dry and off the ground.
A short power cord is supplied to reduce the risk
of tripping over the cord. Extension cords may be
used, but caution must be taken to prevent
tripping over the cord.
In absence of local codes the rotisserie motor
must be grounded electrically in accordance with
the National Electrical Code, ANSI / NFPA 70, or
Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1.
ƽWARNING: Setup up the rotisserie with food before
lighting rotisserie burner.
Operating
1) Remove rotisserie shaft from grill. Remove one spit
fork.
2) Push the rotisserie shaft through the center of the
food.
3) Slide the spit fork onto the shaft. Insert the tines of
both spit forks into the food. The food should be
centered on the shaft. Tighten the spit fork screws
4) Place the motor in the bracket, slide to lock.
5) Insert the pointed end of the rotisserie shaft into the
motor. Place the handle end of the rotisserie onto the
support rollers.
6) The rotisserie shaft should rotate so that the heavy
side of the meat or poultry rotates down to the bottom.
Large cuts may require the removal of the cooking
grates and warming rack to allow full rotation of the
shaft. Remount the food if necessary for better
balance.
7) Turn the motor on.
Cooking
Meats (except poultry and ground meat) should be
brought to room temperature before cooking. (20 to 30
minutes should be adequate for most foods. If frozen
defrost completely before cooking.)
Tie meat or poultry with a string, if necessary, to make
the shape as uniform as possible before putting it on
the spit.
Remove cooking grates and warming rack to allow
food to turn freely.
Follow lighting instructions for rotisserie burner on next
page.
Set rotisserie burner on Med-High based on outside
air temperatures.
Place food within area of burner.
If you wish to save drippings for gravy, place a drip
pan directly under the food on top of the Flavorizer
®
bars.
Food preparation steps are the same for rotisserie
cooking as for regular cooking. Indicated timing in the
cookbook will be the same.
All cooking is done with the lid closed.
If foods are too heavy or are irregular shapes, they
may not rotate well and should be cooked by the
Indirect Method without using the rotisserie.
Smoker can be used in conjunction with rotisserie for
more smoke flavor.
Note - When using the rotisserie burner, grill thermometer
will not reflect the temperature inside the cooking box
.
