

fryer. Clean the following
areas in this order: the parts of
the stack you can reach, the
back of the exhaust hood, the
sides of the exhaust hood, and
the fryer filter recess area.

On an electric fryer, next use
the putty knife to scrape all
soft grease and hard carbon
from all sheet metal around
the fryer, the standoff piece,
and the fryer stand. Skip to
step 8 after these areas are
cleaned.

On a gas fryer, next use the
putty knife to scrape all soft
grease and hard carbon from
these areas in this order: the
flue restrictor, all sheet metal
around fryer, the removable
gravity blade, the seal angle,
the stand-off piece, and the
fryer stand.

On a gas fryer, be careful not
to drop any soft grease or
hard carbon into the fryer flue
passage while cleaning.

Do not break the fire protec­tion fusible link in the lower
area of the stack. Breaking the
link will activate the fire ex­tinguishing system.
