Important safeguards
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the ones below.
Sections:
General
1. Read all instructions carefully before using the appliance.
2. The roaster is only intended for commercial use.
3. Incorrect operations and improper use can damage the appliance and cause injury to the user.
4. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
5. To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse the cord, plugs, or roaster in water or other liquids.
6. Always turn off the power button and unplug from the outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before turning off.
7. Using accessory attachments or software not recommended by the appliance manufacturer may cause injuries, fire, or electric shock.
8. Do not use outdoors.
9. Do not let the cord hang over the edge of the table or counter or touch hot surfaces.
10. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner or in a heated oven.
11. Always attach the plug to the appliance first, then plug the cord into the wall outlet. To disconnect, turn any control to OFF, then remove the plug from the wall outlet.
12. Do not use appliances for other than intended use.
13. The roaster operates at high temperatures and must be kept away from flammable materials, including chemicals, fabrics, and paper.
14. The roaster must be placed on a heat-resistant, slip-proof surface that will not allow the roaster to slide.
15. Allow 20cm of space around the sides and front of the roaster.
16. Never use the ROEST from within a cabinet.
17. Never leave the ROEST unattended during pre-heating and roasting. Also, do not leave the roaster unattended until 2 minutes after the cooling process has started to ensure no fire is present.
18. There is a risk of the coffee beans catching fire during roasting. Parts of the roaster also become hot enough to cause burns.
19. The fumes from roasting may be harmful. Please ensure adequate venting of smoke. Read all about ventilation here.
20. The instructions for cleaning the appliance must be followed.
21. The appliance must not be operated using an external timer or separate remote-control system.
22. This appliance can be used by children aged eight years and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved:
• Children shall not play with the appliance.
• Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be done by children unless they are older than eight and supervised.
• Keep the appliance and cord out of reach of children under eight.
23. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a special cord or assembly available from the manufacturer or its service agent.
24. If the ventilation sucks in coffee beans or any small object, they will be ejected (shot out) at high speed from the exit ventilation hole. Primarily this can happen through the cooling tray.
Therefore, the ventilation exit hole must never be directed against people, and a person must never look inside the ventilation exit hole when the roaster is on. We recommend always using at least a small ventilation hose to create a 90-degree angle.
25. This appliance is intended to be used in cupping labs, coffee shops, roasteries, households, and similar applications such as staff kitchen areas in shops, offices, and other working environments; - farmhouses; - bed and breakfast type environments.
26. Save these instructions.

Revisions
Alterations services and accessories
1. Do not modify the roaster without permission from the producer.
2. Any accessories not recommended by the manufacturer must not change the operation of the coffee roaster or interfere with regular operation.
3. If disassembling is necessary, allow the machine to cool completely before service is carried out. Always disconnect the power plug before disassembling the roaster.
4. Do not operate the roaster if not fully assembled.
5. Do not operate the coffee roaster if it is damaged or you suspect a malfunction.
6. Do not attempt to service the roaster yourself unless instructed by us. Using accessory attachments other than those supplied or recommended by the manufacturer may cause hazards and void your warranty.
Electrical
1. To avoid electric shock, do not operate the roaster in a wet environment or near water. Any cleaning should be done with a moist or dry cloth and only be performed when the roaster is cooled down, and the power cord is disconnected. Some parts may be removed for additional cleaning.
2. The power cord and USB cord must be arranged in such a way that they will not be tripped over or able to pull the roaster off the table. Keep the cords away from the front part of the roaster, which may get very hot and can melt the wire.
3. The roaster needs a dedicated electrical circuit with ground (earth). Do NOT plug other appliances into this circuit.
4. If an extension cord is needed, please ensure it meets the minimum power rating requirements and is fully grounded (earthed). Do not connect other appliances to the cord.
Mechanical
1. Never touch moving parts; do not place hands or fingers inside the drum while the roaster is connected. This includes the trier hole, hopper, and the side where beans exit.
2. Never place hands or fingers inside the ventilation exit at the back. The fan has metal impellers that can create injuries.
3. The coffee roaster is heavy, and care should be taken when moving the roaster. Only move the roaster when it is completely cooled down. Do not lift the coffee roaster by the handles, chaff drawer, or other detachable parts.
Roasting
1. When coffee beans are dropped from the machine into the cooling tray, they are extremely hot and should not be touched until cooled completely.
2. The operating environment should be clean and free from dust and sand.
3. ROEST is only for roasting coffee beans. Roasting other food/items will void the warranty.
4. After roasting has finished, the roaster will return to “roasting standby mode” and be ready to roast another batch.
5. When roasting is done, please leave the roaster to cool down. Follow the instructions here.
6. Do NOT disconnect the power until properly cooled down, or you can risk damage.
7. The chaff drawer should be emptied after each roast session or every 25 roasts. Read the instructions here.
8. After about 500-1000 roasts, the roaster must be deep cleaned.
9. The roaster is designed for profile roasting, minimum of 5 minutes of roasting cycles. Meaning the temperature goes down to below 250 degrees Celsius between each roast. The roaster shall therefore not be used on maximum power in manual mode. If the environment temperature reaches 320 degrees Celsius, the electrical element will be turned off.
