Clean area behind fryers (continued)

Prepare fryer for cleaning.

Release the locks on the fryer wheels.

If the fryer has a capping piece, lift the front of the capping piece far enough to let the backsplash clear the filter shelf. Roll the fryer carefully away from the firewall, just until the capping piece clears the filter shelf.

Secure the capping piece, if there is one. Place vat covers on all vats.

Roll the fryer farther away from the firewall, far enough to clean behind the fryer.

Oil in fryer may be very hot. Roll the fryer slowly to avoid splashing the oil. Use gloves

Disconnect fryer from

electricity.

Unplug the fryer’s electrical cord from the outlet by pulling on the electrical plug’s body. You may need to twist the plug to remove from the outlet.

Clean fryer filters.

Remove the fryer filters from the exhaust hood. Take the filters to the threecompartment-sink and soak them in McD APSC.

Scrape area behind fryer.

Use a putty knife to scrape off all soft grease and hard carbon from the area behind the 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.

Calibrate fryer Bi-weekly FR 2 B1

Why

To maintain food safety standards

Frymaster Fryer All models using an M2000 Computer Bi-weekly

Time required

Time of day

Hazard icons

Tools and supplies

Pyrometer with fry vat probe

Procedure

Calibrate pyrometer.

Fill a hot beverage cup with ice and then add cold water from the drink tower up to the top of the ice. You should have 50 percent ice and 50 percent water.

2 Place probe in water

Place the probe in the ice water and stir continuously until the temperature readout stabilizes.

3 Read temperature

The readout should be 32°F (0°C), plus or minus 2°F (1°C). If not, you need to calibrate, repair, or replace the pyrometer. For calibration, follow the calibration, checking, and adjusting procedures supplied by the manufacturer of your pyrometer.

Turn on fryer and heat oil.

Press the on/off button to turn the fryer on. Set the fryer for the product to be cooked. Allow the oil in the fryer to reach cooking temperature and then cycle off.

1 minutes to prepare 5 minutes to complete, once fryer has reached cooking

temperature. Cook temperature should be reached in approximately 45 minutes. For 24-hour restaurants: during low-volume periods

Check oil level.

Check the oil level when the oil has reached cooking temperature. If the oil is above the “Oil Level” line, remove oil until the oil is at the line by draining oil into pan or disposal unit. If the oil is below the “Oil Level” line, add oil until the oil reaches the line.

Oil in the fryer is very hot. Use gloves.

Cycle vat.

Allow the vat to cycle on and off three times. The heat light will come on when the fryer is heating.

FR 2 B1

Calibrate fryer (continued)

Read oil temperature.

Insert the fry vat probe of the pyrometer into the hot oil to within 1 inch (2.5 cm) of the probe’s tip. The tip should be approximately 3 inches (7.6 cm) below the surface of the oil. Allow the temperature reading to stabilize.

Display temperature on fryer.

Press the temperature display switch for the vat where you took the pyrometer reading. The display will show the temperature for the vat.

Compare temperature

readings.

Compare the temperature reading on the pyrometer with the corresponding temperature on the display.

If the two temperatures are less than 5°F (3°C) apart (either plus or minus), you do not need to adjust the temperature setting.

If the two temperatures are more than 5°F (3°C) apart (either plus or minus), call a service technician to report the problem.

End calibration check.

When you have finished steps 5 through 7 for the vat (including both sides of a splitvat), press the on/off button to end the calibration check for the vat.

Calibrate remaining fryers.

Repeat steps 1 through 9 for all remaining fryers.

Frymaster Fryer All models using an M2000 Computer Bi-weekly

Repeat for other side of split-

vat.

If the vat you tested was a full vat, skip this step and go to step 9.

If the vat you tested was one side of a split-vat, repeat steps 5 through 7 on the other side of the split-vat.

Procedure

Turn fryer off.

Press the on/off button to turn the fryer off. The display will show “OFF.”

Check most recent recovery

time.

The fryer automatically records the fryer’s recovery time each time the vat temperature rises from 250°F (121°C) to 320°F (160°C).

Press the button marked with a checkmark to enter the fryer’s programming mode. The left display will show “Code.”

Press the buttons marked “1, 6, 5, 2” in that order to enter code 1652. The display will show the most recent recovery time in both displays. Write down the recovery time.

Compare most recent recovery time to acceptable recovery time.

The acceptable recovery time for electric fryers is less than 100 seconds. The acceptable recovery time for gas fryers is less than 145 seconds.

If the recovery time you wrote down is less than the fryer’s acceptable recovery time, the fryer’s performance is acceptable. Skip to step 5.

If the time you wrote down is more than the fryer’s acceptable recovery time, the fryer’s performance is not acceptable. Go to the next step.
