The Hatco TQ-405 is designed for busy, high-demand breakfast buffet areas that need a steady flow of consistently browned toast. It is also suitable for moist or dense bread products, making it useful where ordinary pop-up toasters would restrict throughput.

The Hatco TQ-405 can produce up to 360 slices/hr. This high output helps breakfast buffet operators maintain toast availability during busy service periods without processing each order through a conventional batch toaster.

The Hatco TQ-405 has manual cooking controls. Operators adjust the conveyor speed to change the time bread spends in the heating chamber and therefore its final colour. This allows quick changes during service while supporting consistent browning across successive slices.

The patented ColorGuard system monitors operation and automatically adjusts conveyor speed during periods of heavy use. This helps maintain uniform toast colour when demand rises, reducing the need for operators to keep correcting the conveyor setting during a busy breakfast service.

Effective insulation and an interior fan help limit surface temperatures during operation. Some exterior areas can still become hot, so operators should use appropriate caution and keep the cooling vents clear rather than treating every surface as safe to touch.

The Hatco TQ-405 can toast moist or dense bread products up to 44 mm thick and 244 mm wide. These limits should be checked against the intended sliced bread before purchase, especially when using unusually thick or wide bakery products.

The toaster measures 368 mm wide, 451 mm deep and 378 mm high. Its countertop footprint is approximately 314 mm wide by 295 mm deep. The silver unit stands on countertop feet, but additional space is still required for ventilation, loading and discharge.

The Hatco TQ-405 requires a 230-240V single-phase supply and operates at 2030-2210 W, approximately 2200 W, and 8.8-9.2 A. It has a fitted plug, so the socket and electrical circuit must be suitable for the toaster's voltage, wattage and current requirements.

The Hatco TQ-405 has a product weight of 20.9kg. Position it on a level countertop that is strong enough to support both the toaster and the bread products being handled during service.

The Hatco TQ-405 includes a 2-year parts and labour warranty. Retain the purchase details and the unit's model and serial information so they are readily available if warranty assistance or servicing is required.

The toaster comes with a toast collector pan, toast feed ramp, removable crumb tray and a factory-attached 1829 mm cord and plug. Its front-or-rear discharge arrangement allows the toasted product to be directed towards either the operator side or the customer and server side.

Place the feed ramp upright for automatic feeding, allowing bread to enter after it is placed on the ramp and released. For hand feeding, position the ramp horizontally on top of the toaster and place bread directly onto the conveyor belt.

Switch the toaster off, unplug it and let it cool. Empty the crumb tray and collector pan, wash them with warm water and mild detergent, and dry them before refitting. Wipe exterior surfaces with a damp, non-abrasive cloth and check the cooling-fan vents for debris.

Use the toaster indoors at 21-29°C on a level, load-bearing counter. Leave at least 25 mm at the sides and rear, 305 mm at the front and 305 mm below the ceiling. Keep it away from restricted airflow, strong air currents, excessive heat, grease and combustible materials.

This product is the silver Hatco Toast-Qwik TQ-405 conveyor toaster, with TQ-405 as its manufacturer reference. The model number and serial number on the unit should be retained for service enquiries and accurate replacement-part identification.
