CHAPTER 2: FRYER OPERATIONS
2-2
2.2 Final Preparation
WARNING
Do not go near the area directly over the flue outlet while the fryer is operating.
Always wear oil-proof, insulated gloves when working with the fryer filled with hot
oil.
Always drain hot oil into a metal container. Hot oil can melt plastic buckets and
crack glass containers.
WARNING
NEVER set a complete block of solid shortening on top of the heating tubes. To do
so will damage the heating tubes and frypot, and void the warranty.
A. When using a liquid shortening (cooking oil), fill the fryer to ¼" below the top OIL LEVEL
line scribed into the back of the frypot.
B. When using a solid shortening, first melt it in a suitable container, or cut it into small pieces
and pack it below the heat tubes, between the tubes and on top of the tubes, leaving no air
spaces around the tubes. Do not disturb or bend the sensing bulbs. Never set a complete
block of solid shortening on top of the heating tubes. To do so will damage the heating
tubes and frypot, and void the warranty.
C. Press the
switch to turn fryer on. The burners will initially operate in the MELT CYCLE
mode until the shortening reaches 180°F (82°C). It will then automatically switch to normal
operation.
D. When the frypot is filled and the shortening is melted, carefully replace the frypot crumb
screen over the heat tubes. Wear oil-proof insulated gloves to avoid the potential for burn
injury when replacing crumb screen.
E. Before starting operation, program the computer to the probable working temperature and
wait for the temperature to stabilize.
