MadMedik Posted August 22, 2011 Report Posted August 22, 2011 Re: Roti install question Help Awesome...thanks for saving the day.
Horiz Posted August 30, 2011 Report Posted August 30, 2011 Re: Roti install question Help I went to the OneGrill website and I see no listing for a 50lb motor only a 40lb. Have they stopped making the 50lb motor?
Roland-B Posted August 30, 2011 Report Posted August 30, 2011 Re: Roti install question Help typed in onegrill 50# motor and there it was 54.95,but out of stock
DennisLinkletter Posted August 30, 2011 Report Posted August 30, 2011 Re: Roti install question Help The motors are hard for Joe to source so he holds them for KK customers.. Just give him a call and he'll share his secret stash with you..
bbqPete Posted September 11, 2011 Report Posted September 11, 2011 Re: Roti install question Help Hi fcnich, Did you figure out the rotis motor install issues? What rotis motor did you buy? Thanks. bbqpete
fcnich Posted September 11, 2011 Author Report Posted September 11, 2011 Re: Roti install question Help HI bbqpete, Yes, i did get it all figured out. What happened was that i purchased a new 2007 model, called the "Supreme", Dennis sent me a mounting bracket for a gen II, which does not work with my cooker. He is trying to fine me one at this time. I bought the 50lb motor 110v. Thanks for your interest!
ddowell Posted January 11, 2013 Report Posted January 11, 2013 Re: Roti install question Help I've got the same issue with my brand new KK. First, the square alu with spring is too long to allow insertion into the KK. Second, the shaft rubs on the motor bracket. I hope these pictures can explain the issue. The motor is the recommended 50 lb motor from Joes.

I'll need to see if we have any or how we can modify a new one to work..
DennisLinkletter Posted January 12, 2013 Report Posted January 12, 2013 Re: Roti install question Help [/attachment]grill bracket rubs.jpg[/attachment:24ro1wnh]I've got the same issue with my brand new KK. First, the square alu with spring is too long to allow insertion into the KK. Second, the shaft rubs on the motor bracket. I hope these pictures can explain the issue. The motor is the recommended 50 lb motor from Joes. Shaft Length problem: I've been trying to match shafts with at least three different motors. I've recently sent all the shafts to Joe at one grill and he'll match them up before they go out. He said that the motor manufacturer is unable to always source the same sockets so they use what they can get. With traditional rotisseries it does not affect how they work.. It of course messes up our KK's system. Bracket hole alignment issue.. Never been told of this one although while not ideal it should be easy to modify it so the motor does not slide as far onto the glides.. this will center the shaft in the hole.. I'll call Joe again on Monday..
JGGibson Posted January 12, 2013 Report Posted January 12, 2013 Re: Roti install question Help Dennis, I have sent a couple of emails within the last week or so related to this same issue. The last email, sent Jan 8, has numerous photographs as well as a word document containing a fairly extensive discussion of the problem(s). Since this email I have a few additional items (roti and other). I will send another email tomorrow detailing this. You may want to look over this information before your Monday conversation with Joe. Thanks, Jim Gibson
ddowell Posted January 12, 2013 Report Posted January 12, 2013 Re: Roti install question Help JIm; do you have both the alignment and shaft length issues? I'd be interested in pooling info. [email protected]
JGGibson Posted January 12, 2013 Report Posted January 12, 2013 Re: Roti install question Help Similar issues. I will forward to you all documentation, photos, etc. that I have sent to Dennis. Jim
