Rotisserie 
cooking provides 
an even delivery of 
heat to your foods. 
It has no equal. 
The constant rotation not only cooks foods evenly, it also 
self bastes. As juices rise to the surface of the food, they      
naturally flow around it as it rotates. And, by moving the 
burner out from beneath the food, you avoid scorching 

flare-ups. 

Your foods will be more evenly 
cooked, more tender and juicier 
when slow-roasted on a Lynx’s 
rotisserie.

The Lynx rotisserie system consists of four main parts, the 
motor, the skewer, the forks and 
the infrared burner.

The Motor

Install the motor by sliding it into 
one of the slots shown here. Use 
the top slot for small foods or 
fast cooking and the lower slot for large foods and slower  
cooking.                                                                                           

Plug the motor power cord into the 
motor and into the built-in power 
outlet on the rear left panel. Your 
grill must be plugged into an AC power supply for the  
rotisserie to work. 

Place a basting pan in the grill to prevent food                  
accumulations on the briquettes and burners. But BE SURE 
YOU REMOVE IT before using any of the other burners. 

The location of the rotisserie burner makes it more            
susceptible to strong wind conditions (more so than the 
main grill burners). 

For this reason it features a safety valve that automatically 
closes any time the rotisserie burner is not properly lit … 
like if it were to extinguish in windy conditions. During 
windy conditions, it’s best to keep the lid closed and to 
periodically check the burner.

When the rotisserie is not in use the rotisserie motor should 
be stored in a cool dry location.

The Spit Rod & Forks

The rotisserie can handle large food items up to 50 lbs. You 
should prepare any item and first mount it on the skewer. 

Swing the warming rack up and out of the way. It will rest in 
place.

Then mount the skewer on the grill before lighting the rotis-
serie infrared burner. Lighting the burner first could result 
in burning your hands while trying to mount the skewer on 
the grill. 

It’s okay to remove the grill racks and even the briquette 
trays to make room for large foods on the skewer. 

To load the skewer, slide one of the forks onto the skewer. 
Push the skewer through the center of the food, then slide 
the second fork onto the skewer. Center the food to be 
cooked on the skewer then push the forks firmly together. 
Tighten the thumb screws (use pliers if necessary). You 
should wrap any loose, dangling pieces of food (like wings) 
with butcher’s string (never use nylon or plastic string). 

With the food secured to the skewer slowly roll the skewer 
in the palms of your hands to check for balance. It should 
rotate smoothly. If you find it has a heavy side, adjust where 
the skewer pierces the meat. An unbalanced skewer will 
cause uneven rotation and uneven cooking. It’s normal for 
the skewer to flex with large foods.
