3.1 Equipment Setup and Shutdown Procedures

Setup

DANGER Never operate the appliance with an empty frypot. The frypot must be filled to the fill line with water or oil before energizing the elements. Failure to do so will result in irreparable damage to the elements and may cause a fire.

DANGER Remove all drops of water from the frypot before filling with oil. Failure to do so will cause spattering of hot liquid when the oil is heated to cooking temperature.

WARNING

The OCF30™ with the automatic top off is NOT intended to use solid shortening. Use only liquid shortening with this fryer. The use of solid shortening will clog the oil lines. The cooking oil capacity of the OCF30™ Series electric fryer is 31 lbs. (3.7 gallons/14 liters) at 70°F (21°C).

DANGER When using solid shortening, pack the shortening down into the bottom of the frypot. DO NOT operate the fryer with a solid block of shortening sitting in the upper portion of the frypot. This will cause damage to the frypot and may cause a flash fire.

Prior to filling frypots with oil ensure all drains are closed.

1. Fill the frypot with cooking oil to the bottom OIL LEVEL line located on the rear of the frypot. This will

allow for oil expansion as heat is applied. Do not fill cold oil any higher than the bottom line; overflow may occur as heat expands the oil.

2. Ensure that the power cord(s) is/are plugged into the appropriate receptacle(s). Verify that the face of the

plug is flush with the outlet plate, with no portion of the prongs visible.

3. Ensure that the power is switched on. Some models are equipped with a master switch located behind the

fryer door cabinet on the front panel of the component box, next to the fuse. OFF is displayed on the controller.

4. Ensure that the controller is switched ON. When the controller is switched on, the fryer will begin heating

and will display MLT-CYCL alternating with the temperature and setpoint until the fryer temperature reaches 180°F (82°C). On CM 3.5 equipped fryers the display changes to LOW TEMP until within 15°F of the setpoint. Then the display changes to product or dashed lines. On the 3000, once the fryer reaches

setpoint, the controller display changes to DROP and the fryer is ready for use. To exit the melt cycle on the 3000, press and hold the EXIT COOL button. Answer YES to EXIT MELT?

Ensure that the oil level is at the top OIL LEVEL line when the oil is at its cooking temperature.

Shutdown

1. Filter the oil and clean the fryers (See Chapters 5 and 6). If using a CM3.5 reverse steps 1 and 2.

2. Turn the fryer off.

3. Place the frypot covers on the frypots.

3.2 Operation

This fryer is equipped with either 3000 or CM3.5 controllers (illustrated on the following page). Fryers with 3000 controllers should refer to the 3000 Controller Operating Instructions in Chapter 4 for the controller programming and operating procedure. For CM3.5 controllers r

efer to the separate Frymaster Fryer Controllers User’s Manual furnished with your fryer for the specific controller operating instructions.

Refer to Chapter 5 of this manual for operating instructions for the built-in filtration system.

3.3 Optional Oil Attendant® Automatic Top-Off

When the Oil Attendant® top-off oil system is in place on the fryer, oil is continually topped off in the frypots from a reservoir in the cabinet. The reservoir holds a 35 pound box of oil. In a typical operation this will last approximately two days before changing. Components of the system are annotated at the right (see Figure 1).

NOTE: The system is intended to top off the frypots, not fill them. The frypots will require manual filling upon startup and after disposal.

3.3.1 Prepare the System for Use

To prepare the system for its initial operation remove cross brace (see Figure

2). Install the JIB cradle shipped in the accessories pack with the screws that were removed in the cross brace removal step. (see Figure 3).

Figure 2 Figure 3

3.3.2 Install the Oil Reservoir

Remove the original lid from the oil container and foil liner. Replace with the provided cap, which has connected suction hardware. Ensure the feeder tube from the cap reaches to the bottom of the oil container.

Place the oil container inside the cabinet and slide it into place (as shown on the following page). Avoid catching the suction hardware on the cabinet interior as the container is placed in the fryer.

The system is now ready for operation. As the fryer heats to preprogrammed temperatures, the system will energize and then slowly add oil to the frypots as needed, until the oil reaches an optimal level.

4.7 Multiple Setpoint (Segmented) Cooking Overview

The 3000 is capable of multiple setpoint (segmented) cooking, a feature which allows a cooking cycle to be broken into a number of parts, each with its own cooking temperature and time.

An abbreviated version of the programming for a 13-minute cook cycle with four cooking temperatures is shown below. Steps are compressed for clarity. The cook times represent when on the timeline of the total cook cycle the segment occurs. In this example, the first temperature change occurs with 11 minutes remaining in the total cook time; 11 is entered at the prompt for the second cook time. Two minutes into the total cook cycle, the temperature will change;11 minutes will remain. Cook times for the remaining segments are arrived at by subtracting the segment length from the remaining cook time. The complete programming steps are shown on pages 10 and 11.

• Step 1sets total cook time and initial setpoint.

• Step 2 sets the duration of the first cooking segment, 2 minutes, and the setpoint of the first

temperature change.

• Step 3 sets the duration of the second cooking segment, 4 minutes, and the setpoint of the

second temperature change.

• Step 4 sets the duration of the third cooking segment, 3 minutes, and the setpoint of the third

temperature change.

The four remaining minutes in the cook time elapse at the final temperature. No entry is required to

use the final minutes

4.9 Filter Menu

WARNING The on-site supervisor is responsible for ensuring that operators are made aware of the inherent hazards of operating a hot oil filtering system, particularly the aspects of oil filtration, draining and cleaning procedures.

DANGER Draining and filtering of oil must be accomplished with care to avoid the possibility of a serious burn caused by careless handling. The oil to be filtered is at or near 350°F (177°C). Ensure all hoses are connected properly and drain handles are in their proper position before operating any switches or valves. Wear all appropriate safety equipment when draining and filtering oil.

DANGER Allow oil to cool to 100°F (38°C) before draining into an appropriate container for disposal.

DANGER Do not drain more than one frypot at a time into the built-in filtration unit to avoid overflow and spillage of hot oil.

DANGER When draining oil into a disposal unit or portable filter unit, do not fill above the maximum fill line located on the container.

The 3000 has five Filter menu options: Filter, Clean and Filter, Dispose, Fill Vat from Bulk (Bulk option only) and Boil Out (only in OFF mode). All are accessed by pressing and holding the Filter button until the display becomes Filter Menu. If fryer is not at set point controller displays wait for filter. The controller must be on and at setpoint for Filter and Filter and Clean.

5.2 Filtration

A 3000 controller prompts the user when to filter on the OCF30

™

fryer. After a preset number of

cook cycles the controller displays filter now? alternating with YES NO. Follow the instructions on page 4-12. If NO is selected or a cook cycle is started, the controller will prompt

again soon to filter the oil.

On demand filtration is used to manually start a filter. See page 4-11 for the filter menu.

The fryer MUST be at setpoint temperature for any filtration operation to start.

Note: Do NOT filter multiple vats simultaneously.

5.2.1 Operation of the Filter

DANGER Draining and filtering of cooking oil must be accomplished with care to avoid the possibility of a serious burn caused by careless handling. The oil to be filtered is at or near 350°F (177°C). Ensure drain handles are in their proper position before operating any switches or valves. Wear all appropriate safety equipment when draining and filtering cooking oil.

DANGER NEVER attempt to drain cooking oil from the fryer with the elements energized! Doing so will cause irreparable damage to the frypot and may cause a flash fire. Doing so will also void the Frymaster warranty.

1. Ensure that the filter is prepared. See Section. 5.1.

2. Make sure the oil is at operating temperature.

3. When prompted, drain the frypot into the filter pan by rotating the drain valve handle 90º (see

Figure 7). If necessary, use the Fryer's Friend clean-out rod to clear the drain from inside the frypot.

Open drain valve by rotating 90º. (Handles may differ from photo.)

Figure 7

DANGER Do not drain more than one frypot at a time into the built-in filtration unit to avoid overflow and spillage of hot oil that may cause severe burns, slipping and falling.

5-3

Page 37

DANGER NEVER attempt to clear a clogged drain valve from the front of the valve! Hot oil will rush out creating the potential for severe burns.

DANGER DO NOT hammer on the drain valve with the cleanout rod or other objects. Damage to the ball inside will result in leaks and will void the Frymaster warranty.

4. After the oil has drained from the frypot

and when prompted, rotate the filter handle towards the “I” to start the pump and begin the filtering process. There may be a slight delay before the pump activates (see Figure 8).

Rotate filter handle to the “I” to start the pump. (Position of handle may differ from

Figure 8

5. The filter pump draws the oil through the filter medium and circulates it back up to and through

the frypot during a filter.

6. After the oil is filtered, close the drain valve when prompted and allow the fryer to refill. Let the

filter pump run 10 to 12 seconds after the oil begins to bubble. Turn the filter off.

7. Ensure the drain valve is fully closed. (If the drain valve is not fully closed, the fryer will not

operate.)

8. Turn the filter off when prompted. The computer displays OFF when finished.

WARNING The filter pump is equipped with a manual reset switch in case the filter motor overheats or an electrical fault occurs. If this switch trips, turn off power to the filter system and allow the pump motor to cool 20 minutes before attempting to reset the switch (see photo below).

Filter Pump Reset Switch

5.4 Draining and Disposing of Waste Oil

When cooking oil is exhausted, the oil must be drained into the filter pan, SDU or other appropriate METAL container for transport to the disposal container or if a bulk oil system is installed, use the

bulk oil disposal system by selecting DISPOSE from the filter menu if the fryer is equipped with a 3000 (see page 4-13) and follow the prompts and instructions for disposing oil to the bulk oil system.

(For safe, convenient draining and disposal of used oil, Frymaster recommends the use of the Frymaster Shortening Disposal Unit (SDU) for JIB systems. The SDU is available through your local distributor.) NOTE: If using an SDU built before January 2004 the filter pan cover must be removed to allow the unit to be positioned beneath the drain. To remove the lid, lift up on the front edge and pull it straight out of the cabinet. Refer to the documentation furnished with your disposal unit for specific operating instructions. If a shortening disposal unit is not available, allow the oil to

cool to 100°F (38°C), then drain the oil into a METAL stockpot or similar METAL container.

5-6

Page 40

DANGER Draining and filtering of cooking oil must be accomplished with care to avoid the possibility of a serious burn caused by careless handling. The oil to be filtered is at or near 350°F (177°C). Ensure all hoses are connected properly and drain handles are in their proper position before operating any switches or valves. Wear all appropriate safety equipment when draining and filtering oil.

DANGER Allow oil to cool to 100°F (38°C) before draining into an appropriate METAL

container for disposal.

DANGER When draining oil into a disposal unit, do not fill above the maximum fill line located on the container.

1. Turn the computer power switch to the OFF position.

2. Position a METAL container with a sealable cover under the drainpipe. The METAL

container must be able to withstand the heat of the oil and hold hot liquids.

3. Follow the instructions for disposing of oil on page 4-13 if equipped with a 3000. Open the

drain valve slowly to avoid splattering. If the drain valve becomes clogged with food particles, use the Fryer’s Friend (poker-like tool) to clear the blockage.

DANGER NEVER attempt to clear a clogged drain valve from the front of the valve! Hot oil will rush out creating the potential for severe burns.

DANGER DO NOT hammer on the drain valve with the cleanout rod or other objects. Damage to the ball inside will result in leaks and will void the Frymaster warranty.

4. After draining the oil, clean all food particles and residual oil from the frypot. BE CAREFUL,

this material may still cause severe burns if it comes in contact with bare skin.

5. Ensure the drain valve is closed securely and fill the frypot with clean, filtered or fresh cooking

oil to the bottom OIL-LEVEL line.

5-7

Page 41

OCF30™ SERIES ELECTRIC FRYERS

CHAPTER 6: PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE

6.1 Cleaning the Fryer

The crumb tray in fryers equipped with a filter system must be emptied into a fireproof container at the end of frying operations each day. Some food particles can spontaneously combust if left soaking in certain shortening material.

Never attempt to clean the fryer during the frying process or when the frypot is filled with hot oil. If water comes in contact with oil heated to frying temperature, it will cause spattering of the oil, which can result in severe burns to nearby personnel.

Use a commercial-grade cleaner formulated to effectively clean and sanitize food-contact surfaces. Read the directions for use and precautionary statements before use. Particular attention must be paid to the concentration of cleaner and the length of time the cleaner remains on the food-contact surfaces.

6.2 DAILY CHECKS AND SERVICE

6.2.1 Inspect Fryer and Accessories for Damage- Daily

Look for loose or frayed wires and cords, leaks, foreign material in frypot or inside cabinet, and any other indications that the fryer and accessories are not ready and safe for operation.

6.2.2 Clean Inside and Outside of the Fryer Cabinet – Daily

Clean inside the fryer cabinet with a dry, clean cloth. Wipe all accessible metal surfaces and components to remove accumulated oil and dust.

Clean outside the fryer cabinet with a clean, damp cloth soaked with detergent. Wipe with a clean, damp cloth.

6.2.3 Clean the Built-in Filtration System Daily

DANGER

WARNING

Never operate the filter system without oil in the system.

WARNING

CHAPTER 7: OPERATOR TROUBLESHOOTING

7.1 Introduction

This section provides an easy reference guide to some of the common problems that may occur during the operation of this equipment. The troubleshooting guides that follow are intended to help correct, or at least accurately diagnose, problems with this equipment. Although the chapter covers the most common problems reported, you may encounter problems that are not covered. In such instances, the Frymaster Technical Services staff will make every effort to help you identify and resolve the problem.

When troubleshooting a problem, always use a process of elimination starting with the simplest solution and working through to the most complex. Never overlook the obvious – anyone can forget to plug in a cord or fail to close a valve completely. Most importantly, always try to establish a clear idea of why a problem has occurred. Part of any corrective action involves taking steps to ensure that it doesn’t happen again. If a controller malfunctions because of a poor connection, check all other connections, too. If a fuse continues to blow, find out why. Always keep in mind that failure of a small component may often be indicative of potential failure or incorrect functioning of a more important component or system.

Before calling a service agent or the Frymaster HOTLINE (1-800-24-FRYER):

• Verify that electrical cords are plugged in and that circuit breakers are on.

• Verify that frypot drain valves are fully closed.

• Have your fryer’s model and serial numbers ready to give to the technician assisting

you.

DANGER Hot oil will cause severe burns. Never attempt to move this appliance when filled with hot oil or to transfer hot oil from one container to another.

DANGER This equipment should be unplugged when servicing, except when electrical circuit tests are required. Use extreme care when performing such tests.

This appliance may have more than one electrical power supply connection point. Disconnect all power cords before servicing.

Inspection, testing, and repair of electrical components should be performed by an authorized service agent only.
