Hickory's award winning Model 5.5 Barbecue is the most versatile countertop rotisserie
on the market today. Guaranteed to produce profits, the 5.5 has been designed for ease of
operation and menu versatility. It will batch cook to perfection with a sophisticated
point of purchase merchandising display. The operator can choose between rotating spits
and wire basket trays, or combinations of the two. Constantly rotating baskets and spits
catch the eye of customers. The 5.5 uses a double rotational planetary drive system to
assure the pinnacle of product quality. All of this is accomplished in a minimum of
counter space, in an oven that will complement any countertop location.
Cooking: Nine cubic feet of cooking space provides a capacity for
up to 25 chickens per batch per hour. (The 5.5 will also accommodate roasts, ducks, small
turkeys, brochettes, etc.) The removable rotating interior allows for the optional cooking
of large roasts, turkeys, and suckling pig.
The user can use both the convenience of basket loading, and the self-basting capability
of rotating spits. Each 5.5 comes complete with 5 spits complete, 5 hanging baskets, 1
turkey spit, and 2 turkey skewers. Thermostatic controls, displayed in Centigrade and
Fahrenheit scales, enable settings for baking, barbecuing, and warming.
Merchandising: The interior cooking area is illuminated with
quadrant lighting and is 100% visible to both the operator and the public, enhancing the
appeal of the merchandise. Two machines can be stacked, doubling capacity within the same
cooking area. The second machine can be used for warming or for additional cooking
capacity during peak sales periods.

 | Ventilation: Electric units do not normally require air evacuation. However since
the surrounding environment may get hot, a hood may be useful. Gas units must be vented,
either under a hood or directly vented via a flue. |
 | Drive Mechanism: A sprocket gear attached to gear motor drives a chain, which in
turn drives a large sprocket gear on the central drive shaft. The drive wheel has
individual drive gears which operate in a planetary action around a stationary gear. |
 | Installation Requirements: Licensed electrician, licensed gas fitter for all gas
connections and checkout. HVAC specialist for air evacuation. Placement of this machine is
critical since it is hot. Plan carefully. |
 | Front Facings: Machine is made with high grade polished stainless. Side boxes can
be ordered stainless or black hammerton finish. |
 | Service, Maintenance, and Construction: Full side service panels allow easy
access to all working parts. The 5.5 is easily cleaned from front to back, enabling the
user to meet all sanitary and hygienic requirements with a minimum of time and effort.
Removable interior allows for quick maintenance and minimal cleaning effort. The interior
cooking area is constructed completely of highgrade stainless steel. Insulation is
complete on all top and side panels. Rigid box design insures strength. |
 | Safety: The horizontally hinged, tempered glass service doors pneumatically open
completely after 60% displacement and self closes after 40% displacement. This system
prevents slamming and glass breakage, and also provides full access to baskets and spits
without blocking aisle space. Electrical components are located behind the control panel
in an area fully insulated from the interior cooking space. Control panel information,
with clear, legible graphics, eliminates confusion for even the novice operator. |
