IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed,
including the following:
1. Read all instructions.
2. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
3. To protect against electrical shock do not immerse cord, plugs, or roaster in
water or other liquid.
4. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before
putting on or taking off parts.
5. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance
malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner. Return appliance to the
nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair, or adjustment.
6. The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the appliance
manufacturer may cause injuries.
7. Do not use outdoors.
8. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.
9. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.
10. Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance containing hot oil or
other hot liquids.
11. Always attach plug to appliance first, then plug cord into the wall outlet. To
disconnect, turn any control to "off', then remove plug from wall outlet.
12. Do not use appliance for other than intended use.
13. Save these instructions.
14. The R1 operates at high temperatures, and must be kept away from flammable
materials, including chemicals, fabrics, and paper.
15. The R1 is not intended for commercial use.
16. The R1 must be placed on a heat resistant and slip proof surface that will not
allow the roaster to slide. If in doubt, use a silicone mat under each foot of the
R1.
17. Allow 10cm (4 inches) of space around the sides and front of the roaster.
18. Never use the R1 from within a cabinet.
19. Never leave the Bullet R1 unattended during preheating and roasting. Also, do
not leave the roaster unattended until 2 minutes after the cooling process has
started, to insure no fire is present.
20.There is a risk of the coffee beans catching fire during roasting. Parts of the R1
also become hot enough to cause burns.
21. The R1 is not a toy, and should not be used by children, or around children.
22.The R1 should be stored somewhere beyond the reach of children.
23.The smoke from roasting may be harmful. Please ensure adequate venting of

Alterations Service & Accessories
●Do not modify the R1.
●Do not disassemble R1. Only authorized service personnel are allowed to repair
malfunctions.
●Unless recommended by Aillio, accessories must not change the operation of the
coffee roaster or interfere with normal operation.
●Do not operate the Bullet R1 if not fully assembled. This includes connecting the
chaff collector.
●Do not operate the coffee roaster if it is damaged or you suspect a malfunction.
●Do not attempt to service the roaster yourself. The use of accessory attachments
other than those supplied or recommended by the manufacturer may cause
hazards and can void your warranty.
Electrical
●To avoid electric shock, do not operate the roaster in a wet environment or near
water. Any cleaning should be with a moist or dry cloth and should only be
performed when the roaster is cooled down and with the power cord
disconnected. Please see the cleaning section.
●The power cord and USB cord must be arranged in such a way that they will not
be tripped over, or able to pull the roaster off the table. Keep the cords away
from the front part of the roaster, which may get very hot and can melt the wire.
●The Bullet needs a dedicated electrical circuit with ground (earth). Do not plug
other appliances into this circuit.
●If an extension cord is needed, please make sure it meets the minimum
requirements of power rating and is fully grounded (earthed). Do not connect
other appliances to the extension cord.
●Always disconnect the power cord after the roaster has cooled down.
Mechanical
●Never touch moving parts, and do not place hands or fingers inside the drum
while the coffee roaster is connected to the mains.
●The coffee roaster is heavy, and care should be taken when moving the roaster.
Only move the roaster when it is completely cooled down. Do not lift the coffee
roaster by the legs, door handle or cords.
Roasting
●When the coffee beans are dropped into the cooling tray, they are extremely
hot, and should not be touched until they have cooled completely.
●The operating environment should be clean and free from dust and sand.
●The R1 is only intended for roasting coffee beans. Roasting other foods will void
the warranty.

●After roasting has finished, the R1 will enter a cool down mode which will cool
the drum. DO NOT disconnect the power until this cooling cycle has finished or
you risk damaging the electronics.
●The Chaff Collector should ALWAYS BE INSTALLED while roasting and needs to
be emptied and the filter cleaned after each roast.
●After roasting 20Kg and while the roaster is cool, remove chaff under the drum.
Refer to cleaning instructions.
Venting
During roasting, smoke is produced which should be vented to the outside or to a
smoke suppression filter. If roasting in the kitchen, a powerful range hood can be used.
Place the R1’s air outlet directly underneath the range hood.
For fixed installations a pipe can be connected to the R1 to vent the smoke outside or to
a filter. It is recommended to use a metal pipe or flexible hose with a diameter of 75mm
(3 inches) or larger. If the pipe or hose is directly attached with an adapter, the length
of the pipe / hose should not be longer than 3m. If the pipe / hose is longer, a suction
fan should be placed at the end of the pipe / hose to ensure adequate airflow. The
suction fan can affect the performance of the R1 by increasing the airflow, thus
potentially removing too much heat.
