1 Operation
Taking Safety Precautions
In a prominent location, post information about
what to do if there is a gas leak. Make sure that
all employees know what to do.
WARNING
To avoid the possibility of fire, explosion,
property damage, serious burns, and even
death, never store gasoline or any other
flammable liquid or vapor near the fryer.
WARNING
To avoid serious injury or death, if you
smell gas or suspect a gas leak, proceed as
follows: 1. Turn off the gas. 2. Evacuate
the building. 3. Do not touch any electrical
switch or telephone until you are sure no
spilled gas remains.
* If you have a Belshaw EZMelt
shortening melter-filter, warm the
shortening and then transfer it to the
kettle. (For EZMelt operating
instructions, refer to the EZMelt
operator’s manual)
WARNING
Hot shortening causes severe burns.
* Melt shortening in a pan on the stove and
pour it into the kettle.
* Put solid shortening into the kettle,
packing it tightly around the burner
tubes.
WARNING
Air spaces can cause the shortening to
overheat and catch on fire.
Filling with Shortening
WARNING
To avoid serious injury or death, before
you begin working, make sure that there is
no combustible material in the area of the
fryer.
Read each step completely before doing what it
tells you to do.
1 Make sure the drain valve is closed.
2 Put enough shortening in the kettle to
completely cover the burner tubes,
thermocouple, and high-temperature limit
control probe. Use one of these 3 methods:
4. Rotate the gas control knob counterclockwise to the ON position.
5. Move the on/off switch to the ON position.
The yellow pilot light near the on/off switch
and the red pilot light on the fryer cabinet
will both light up.
CAUTION
Above: OMRON Digital Temperature Controller
6. (See diagram above) On the digital
temperature controller, push the up and down
arrow keys to adjust the target frying temperature
(SV). A common target frying temperature is
375°F (190°C).
If the Pilot Light Fails to
Ignite
If this happens, follow these steps to reset the
system:
a. Move the on/off switch to the OFF
position.
b. Wait for the shortening to cool to
385°F/196°C or below. You will not be
able to ignite the pilot until the
shortening reaches this temperature.
If the pilot fails to ignite within a certain length
of time, the gas system will go into safety lockout. If this happens, move the on/off switch to
OFF, wait at least one minute, and then move the
on/off switch to ON again.
WARNING
Failure to wait at least one minute for the
gas to dissipate could result in a fire or an
explosion when the pilot is lighted again.
High Temperature Limit
Switch
If the shortening temperature exceeds
435°F/224°C, the high-temperature limit control
will break the circuit, and the electrical and gas
systems will shut off.
c. Push the red High Limit Reset Button
located just above the temperature
controller.
d. Move the on/off switch to the ON
position.
Adding Shortening to the
Fryer
Continue adding shortening to the kettle until it
reaches the proper depth for frying. Use one of
the following methods. For safety reasons, we
recommend the first method, and discourage you
from using any other method.
shortening melter-filter, warm the
shortening and then transfer it to the
kettle. (For EZMelt operating
instructions, refer to the EZMelt
operator’s manual)
* Melt shortening in a pan on the stove and
pour it into the kettle.
* Very carefully put solid shortening into
the kettle.
Because shortening expands as it increases in
temperature, put shortening in the kettle
gradually. Let the shortening in the kettle heat
up before you add more.
WARNING
To avoid serious burns, when the fryer is
operating, do not touch the flue, exhaust
manifold, stacks, gas burners, or any part
of the fryer that is in contact with hot
shortening. Keep clear from the area
above the flue outlet.
Wait for the shortening to reach the desired
temperature.

Marks
Continue supplying shortening to the kettle as
required. Keep the kettle filled up to the “Oil
Level” marks on the side.
When you have finished frying, move the on/off
switch to the OFF position.
For your safety, observe the following warnings
throughout the entire cleaning process.
WARNING
Thoroughly clean and dry the floor if
shortening, water, or other materials are
spilled. Materials spilled on the floor can
cause serious injury or loss of life.
WARNING
To avoid electrocuting yourself or
damaging the machine, never allow water,
steam, shortening, cleaning solution, or any
other liquid to enter the electrical box.
WARNING
1. Disconnect the machine from the power
source.
2. Let the shortening cool to 250°F(120°C).
3. Place a Belshaw EZMelt Filter under the
drain valve of the fryer. (See your EZMelt

and slowly pour the water into the sink.
75°-80°F/24°-27°C. Check the mix
manufacturer’s instructions, as the
recommended temperature range may vary.
If the batter is too warm, the donuts will lack
volume and may “ring out” or be misshapen.
If the batter is too cold, the donuts will stay
under the shortening too long, fry too
slowly, and crack open or ball up. They
may also absorb excess shortening and lose
volume.
•Use the correct floor time.
A floor time of 10 minutes between mixing
and cutting allows the baking powder to
react with the water. This helps the donuts
attain the proper volume the proper level of
shortening penetration.
If the floor time exceeds 30 minutes, the mix
will gas off, the donuts will lose volume and
shape and will absorb too much shortening.
If the shortening is too cold, the donuts will
spread too rapidly, will form large rings, will
tend to crack open, will be too light in
appearance, and will absorb too much
shortening.
•Maintain the proper shortening level. We
recommend a distance of 1 1/4” between the
cutter and the shortening.
If the shortening is too deep, the donuts may
not turn over when they reach the turner,
causing them to cook unevenly.
If the shortening is too shallow (too far
below the cutter), the donuts may not drop
flat, may turn over while submerging and
surfacing, and may become irregular,
cracked, or rough-crusted.
•Ensure that the donuts absorb the right
amount of shortening.
Donuts should absorb 1-1/2 to 3 oz/42 to 85
g of shortening per dozen, depending on
their weight. You can achieve proper
absorption by following tips 1-3.
•If the donuts do not absorb enough
shortening, they will not keep well.
•Use the correct frying temperature.
The correct shortening temperature for
frying is 370°-380°F/188°-193°C.
If the shortening is too hot, the donuts will
fry too quickly on the outside and will lose
volume. The donuts may also become dense
inside.
lose volume and may become misshapen. If
this happens, follow tips 1-3, mix the batter
a little longer than usual, turn the donuts as
soon as they become golden brown, and turn
the donuts only once.

Temperature Conversion
To convert temperatures from Fahrenheit to
Celsius, subtract 32 from °F and divide the result
by 1.8. For example, 212°F-32/1.8 = 100°C.
To convert temperatures from Celsius to
Fahrenheit, multiply °C by 1.8 and add 32 to the
result. For example, (100°C x 1.8) + 32 = 212°F.

This section contains supplemental information
about the Honeywell S8600 Intermittent Pilot
Module. The Belshaw 718LCG, 724CG, and
734CG gas fryers all use this module. Fryers
using natural gas use the S8600F-1000. Fryers
using propane use the S8600H-1014.
Belshaw provides this appendix as a courtesy to
our customers. We deny any liability for the use
of the information contained herein. All of the
procedures explained below should be performed
by qualified technicians.

WARNING
To avoid fire or explosion, resulting in
property damage, injury, or loss of life, if
you smell gas or suspect a gas leak, turn off
the gas at the manual service valve and
evacuate the building. Do not try to light
any appliance or touch any electrical
switch or telephone in the building until
you are sure no spilled gas remains.
Step 1: Perform Visual Inspection
1. Make sure the fryer’s on/off switch is in the
OFF position. Make sure all wiring
connections are clean and tight. If they are
not, correct them.
2. Move the on/off switch to ON.
3. Open the manual shutoff valves in the gas
line to the fryer.
4. If the piping has been disturbed, perform a
gas leak test ahead of the gas control, as
follows:
a. Paint the pipe joints with a rich solution
of soap and water. Bubbles in the
solution indicate gas leaks.
When the fryer’s thermostat calls for heat, the
module energizes the first main valve operator.
The first main valve opens, allowing gas to flow
to the pilot burner. At the same time, the
electronic spark generator in the module
produces a spark pulse output of over 10,000
volts. The voltage generates a spark at the
igniter-sensor that lights the pilot.
If the pilot does not light, or if the pilot flame
current is not at least 1.0 A and steady, the
module will not energize the second main valve,
and the main burner will not light. The S8600F,
which is used on natural gas fryers, will continue
to spark as long as the fryer’s thermostat calls for
heat or until the pilot lights.
The S8600H, which is used on propane fryers,
provides 100 percent shutoff and safety lockout.
Its ignition sparks only for a pre-set length of
time (15 or 90 seconds, as stamped on the
module). If the pilot does not light within the
timed trial for ignition period, the module goes
into safety lockout, de-energizing the first main
valve operator, closing the first main pilot valve
in the gas control, and stopping the flow of gas to
the pilot. You must then move the on/off switch
to OFF, and wait at least one minute before
trying again to light the pilot.
Main Burner Operation
When the pilot flame is established, a flame
rectification circuit is completed between the
sensor and the burner ground. The flame sensing
circuit in the module detects the flame current,
shuts off the spark generator, and energizes the
second main valve operator. The second main
valve opens and gas flows to the main burner,
where it is ignited by the pilot burner. On the
S8600H, the safety lockout timer is held in the
normal operating mode.
4. Compare this time with the shutoff time that
is stamped on the module. They should be
the same.
5. Open the manual gas cock and make sure
that no gas is flowing to the pilot or main
burner.
6. Move the on/off switch to OFF and wait at
least one minute before continuing.
When the thermostat no longer calls for heat,
both valve operators are de-energized, and both
valves in the gas control close.
Step 3: Reset the Module
1. Turn the thermostat to its lowest setting.
2. Wait at least one minute.
Step 4: Check Safety Shutoff Operation
This step applies only to the S8600H, which is
used on propane fryers.
1. Turn the gas supply off.
2. Move the on/off switch to ON.
Watch to see whether there is a spark at the
pilot burner immediately.
3. Time the spark from the time it starts to the
time it shuts off.
2. Set the temperature controller to 200°F
(93°C) or higher.
3. Watch to see whether the pilot lights
smoothly when the gas reaches the pilot
burner.
4. Watch to see whether the main burner lights
smoothly without flashback.
5. Watch to see whether the main burner
operates smoothly without floating, lifting,
flame rollout, or heat buildup.
6. If the gas line has been disturbed, perform a
gas leak test, as follows:
a. Paint the gas control gasket edges and all
pipe connections downstream of the gas
control, including pilot tubing
connections, with a rich solution of soap
and water. Bubbles in the solution
indicate gas leaks.
b. If there are leaks, tighten the joints or
screws, or replace the component.
c. Test again for leaks.
d. Repeat this procedure until no leaks
exist.
7. Move the on/off switch to OFF.
8. Watch to see whether the main burner flame
and the pilot flame go out.
Troubleshooting—General
The following service procedures are provided as
a general guide.
models must be reset by setting the
thermostat below 200°F/93°C for at least
one minute before continuing. On retry
models, wait for retry or reset at the
thermostat.
* If any component does not function
properly, make sure it is correctly
installed and wired before replacing it.
* The ignition module cannot be repaired.
If it malfunctions, it must be replaced.
* Only trained, experienced service
technicians should service intermittent
pilot systems.
As the first step in troubleshooting, perform the
checkout procedure. Then check the block
diagram. If you think there is an ignition
problem, see “Troubleshooting the Ignition
System” below to isolate and correct the
problem.
Following troubleshooting, perform the checkout
procedure again to be sure system is operating
normally.
Troubleshooting the
Ignition System
Step 1: Check Ignition Cable
1. Make sure the ignition cable does not run in
contact with any metal surfaces.
2. Make sure the ignition cable is no more than
36”/0.9 m long.
3. Make sure the connections to the ignition
module and to the igniter-sensor are clean
and tight.
For electrical troubleshooting, refer to the
diagrams included with this manual or to the
diagram on the inside of the fryer door. Heed all
warnings and cautions.
4. Make sure the ignition cable provides good
electrical continuity.
Step 2: Check Ignition System
Grounding
* On lockout and retry models, meter
readings between gas control and
ignition module must be taken within the
trial for ignition period. Once the
ignition module shuts off, lockout
Nuisance shutdowns are often caused by a poor
or erratic ground.
A common ground, usually supplied by the pilot
burner bracket, is required for the module and the
pilot burner/igniter-sensor.
1. Check for good metal-to-metal contact
between the pilot burner bracket and the
main burner.
5. Check the table below.
Arc Length What To Do
2. Check the ground lead from the GND
(BURNER) terminal on the module to the
pilot burner. Make sure the connections are
clean and tight. If the wire is damaged or
deteriorated, replace it with #14-18 gauge,
moisture-resistant, thermoplastic-insulated
wire with a 221°F/105°C minimum rating.
3. Check the ceramic flame rod insulator for
cracks or evidence of exposure to extreme
heat, which can permit leakage to the
ground. Replace the pilot burner/ignitersensor and provide a shield if necessary.
If the flame rod or the bracket are bent out of
position, restore them to the correct position.
Step 3: Check Spark Ignition Circuit
You will need a short jumper wire made from
ignition cable or other heavily insulated wire.
1. Close the manual gas valve.
No arc, or arc less
than 1/8"/3 mm
Arc 1/8"/3 mm or
longer.
Check external fuse, if
provided.
Verify power at
module input
terminal.
Replace module if
fuse and power are
okay.
Nothing. (Voltage
output is okay.)
Step 4: Check Pilot and Main
Burner Light is off
1. Turn the on/off switch to ON.
2. Watch the pilot burner during the ignition
sequence. Look for the following:
* The ignition spark continues after the
pilot is lit
2. Disconnect the ignition cable at the SPARK
terminal on the module.
WARNING
To avoid electric shock, when performing
the following steps, do not touch the
stripped end of the jumper or the SPARK
terminal. The ignition circuit generates
over 10,000 volts.
3. Energize the module and immediately touch
one end of the jumper firmly to the GND
terminal on the module. Move the free end
of the jumper slowly toward the SPARK
terminal until a spark is established.
4. Pull the jumper slowly away from the
terminal and note the length of the gap when
sparking stops.
main burner lights, but the system shuts
down (S8600H only)
3. If any of the these things happens, make sure
the flame current is adequate. Follow these
steps:
a. Turn off the fryer and disconnect it from
the power source.
b. Clean the flame rod with emery cloth.
c. Make sure the electrical connections are
clean and tight. Replace damaged wire
with moisture-resistant #18 wire rated
for continuous duty up to 221°F/105°C.
d. Check to see if ceramic insulator is
cracked. A cracked insulator can cause a
short to ground. Replace the ignitersensor if necessary.
e. At the gas control, disconnect the main
valve wire from the TH or MV terminal.
f. Connect the fryer to the power source
and move the on/off switch to the ON
position.
g. Turn on the power and set thermostat
above 200°F/93°C to call for heat. The
pilot should light, but the main burner
will remain off because the main valve
actuator is disconnected.
h. Check the pilot flame. Make sure it is
blue, steady, and envelops 3/8-1/2”/
10-13 mm of the flame rod. See the
table below for possible flame problems
and their causes.
i. If necessary, adjust the pilot flame by
turning the pilot adjustment screw on the
gas control clockwise to decrease or
counterclockwise to increase the pilot
flame. Following adjustment, always
replace the pilot adjustment cover screw
and tighten it firmly to assure proper gas
control operation.
j. Move the on/off switch to ON.
4. Recheck the ignition sequence as follows:
a. Reconnect the main valve wire.
Appearance Cause
small blue flame lack of gas due to
clogged orifice filter
lack of gas due to
clogged pilot filter
low gas supply
pressure
pilot adjustment is at

orifice too small
b. Set the thermostat above 200°F/93°C to
call for heat.
c. Watch the ignition sequence at the
burner.
If the spark still does not stop after the
pilot lights, replace the ignition module.
If the main burner does not light, check
for 24V AC across MV-MV/PV
terminals. If there is no voltage, replace
the module. Also, check the electrical
connections between the module and the
gas control. If they are okay, replace the
gas control or the gas control operator.
