AUTOFRY Models MTI-5 Rev. 2 Operator's Manual

Add liquid shortening (2.5- 2.75 Gallons).

• Add liquid shortening to the oil pot. Ensure that the oil level is approximately 1/2" – 3/4" below the upper fill line stamped on the interior

of the oil pot. Oil level should be maintained between the upper and lower fill levels at all times.

It is simpler and safer to add cool shortening to the oil pot than it is to remove hot shortening. Once the AUTOFRY has heated

the shortening will expand. Only after this expansion has finished should the oil level be increased to the upper FILL level.

Over filling will result in excessive splashing; never over fill the oil pot.

Under-filling the oil pot will result in under-cooked food product or poor and erratic temperature readings. Extreme low oil levels will cause smoking.

NEVER operate the AUTOFRYin a low or no oil condition, there is risk of fire due to extreme low oil levels.

Install the food exit chute.

• Secure the food exit chute, flange side up, into the cut-out on the

right hand side of the AUTOFRY inserting

the food exit chute into the cut-out space and lifting up into the cavity until the flange can be placed over the raised edge of the internal wall (see Figure 9).
