Ask a Question About This Product
The DO8/M077-X5 is a five-burner gas shawarma machine designed for continuous vertical rotisserie cooking in kebab shops, Turkish restaurants, and food service operations. It processes meat columns up to 30 kg with front-facing gas burners delivering 16.25 kW total output. The integrated trolley allows repositioning during service.
Commercial Application
Vertical gas burners heat the meat column from the front while the motor rotates the spit. Operators slice portions directly from the rotating column during service hours. The five-burner configuration maintains consistent surface temperature across taller meat loads.
During peak hours, the unit runs continuously with periodic slicing as orders arrive. Heat zones can be adjusted by controlling individual burners. The drip tray collects rendered fat and juices below the burner assembly.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can this machine operate on LPG or natural gas?
A: The DO8/M077-X5 ships configured for natural gas. Conversion to LPG requires replacing the burner jets with the supplied LPG nozzle set and adjusting gas pressure to 28-30 mbar. Gas supply line must deliver minimum 16.25 kW at steady pressure.
Q: What size meat column does this unit handle?
A: The spit accommodates meat columns up to 30 kg and 60 cm in height. Diameter capacity is 25 cm at the widest point. Smaller loads down to 10 kg can be cooked by reducing active burner count.
Q: How do the five burners affect cooking capacity?
A: Five burners provide 16.25 kW total output distributed vertically across the meat surface. More burners allow taller meat columns and faster surface cooking. Individual burner control adjusts heat zones for varied meat thickness.
Q: Is this machine suitable for food truck installation?
A: Yes, the trolley base and 110 kg weight allow secure mounting in commercial vehicles. Gas supply must meet local mobile catering regulations. Ventilation requirements are the same as stationary installations.
Q: How is the drip tray cleaned during service?
A: The drip tray slides out from the front without tools. Most operators empty it every 4-6 hours during continuous service. Stainless steel construction allows dishwasher cleaning or manual degreasing.
