• Pre-melt shortening in a pan on the
stove, heat slightly to liquefy and
carefully pour it into the kettle.
WARNING
Hot shortening causes severe burns.
• Use the optional EZ Melt to melt
shortening and transfer it to the kettle.
See your EZ Melt manual.
• Put solid shortening into the kettle,
packing it tightly around the thermostat
bulbs.
WARNING
Air spaces can cause the shortening to
overheat and catch on fire.
5. Turn the combination gas control valve to
the PILOT position.
6. Press and hold down the valve. At the same
time, push the red ignition button until you
can see a flame through the opening on the
outfeed end of the fryer.
7. Continue holding down the valve for about
20 seconds. When you release the valve,
make sure the flame is still on the pilot.
WARNING
If the pilot is out, do the following:
1. Turn the combination gas control valve
to the PILOT position.
2. Lightly press down the valve and turn it
to the OFF position.
3. Wait 5 minutes.
4. Re-light the pilot, as explained above.
Failure to wait 5 minutes for the gas to
dissipate could result in a fire or an
explosion when you re-light the pilot.
8. Move the POWER switch to the ON
position.
9. Set the thermostat to the desired setting. A
pilot light on the control box will come on,
indicating that the shortening is heating up
to the desired temperature. It will go out if
the high temperature limit control breaks the
circuit.
Note: If the high temperature limit control
does break the circuit, push the red reset
button on the back of the control box.
10. Wait for the shortening to reach the desired
temperature. When it does, the pilot light
will go out. DO NOT run the conveyor until
all the shortening has melted.
11. If are using the optional Shortening Reserve
Tank, fill it with shortening. Then position
it on the conveyor side panels either ahead
of or behind the turner, but not above it.
The heat of the fryer will melt the shortening
in the tank.
12. Install your Feed Table and load proof cloths
on it. Refer to Section 4, “Related
Products,” for complete installation and
operation instructions for the Feed Table.
13. Choose the appropriate fry time for your
product using the fry time control knob on
the control box.
14. Turn on the conveyor drive using the power
switch on the control box.
Note: If the conveyor becomes jammed, a
warning buzzer will sound about a minute
later and the buzzer will stop when the
conveyor is turned off. The conveyor drive
is impedance-protected so it will not burn
out due to jamming.
