Be careful to keep your hands
clear of the pointed rods as
they exit from the meat.
Small Chickens or Game Hens Side-by-Side
You can also rotate two small chickens or game hens side-by-side. Place Spit
Assembly in vertical position with platform underneath. Push the birds on the Spit
Rods through their centers, and pierce wing to wing. Place the first tied chicken
on its side and run both Spit Rods through it. Duplicate this method for the sec-
ond bird. Leave a little space between the two birds so they can brown faster and
more evenly. Keep all parts within the Gear Wheels and centered all around.
Placing Chickens on the Spit Rods
There are two ways to load the Spit Rods.
#1 Hold the tied poultry or meat down securely
with one hand while firmly pushing the Spit
Rods into the bird, through the meaty portion of
the breast area. The Spit Rods are sharp so
always be careful not to puncture your hand.
When inserting the Spit Rods, push at a slight-
ly downward angle and then level out the Spit
Rods so that they go through the breast and exit
the bird on the other side at approximately the
same level. (Note: You should gently squeeze
the legs of the bird together when pushing the
Spit Rods through the bird.)
#2 Try putting the food on by using the Spit
Rods in the Loading Base and put the chicken
on breast first using gravity to help. Be sure you
center the food within the area of the two Gear
Wheels. Also balance the food so the weight is
evenly distributed. See details on page 11.
After the food is held securely on the Spit Rods,
put the other Gear Wheel in place. The Spit
Assembly can now be placed in the Rest Area
just inside the Door. Then move on to A or B.
The Rest Area
Located just inside the
machine so you can rest your
loaded Spit Rods and easily
adjust your food and add
Kabob Rods, etc.
