frypot and full frypot fryers. The following is a brief description of the operating procedures for fryers with these controls.

1.Be sure the drain valve is in the closed position.

2.Place basket support inside of frypot.

3.Make sure frypot is filled with shortening to the proper level.

4.Display shows “OFF” until power switch is turned to the ON position. Display shows the selected product as “P-1”, “P-2”, “P-3”, etc, and the unit automatically starts the Melt Cycle until the shortening temperature reaches

250 F (121 C). The control automatically exits the Melt Cycle.

To assign a product to a timer button, press product button and then the desired timer button. “XXXX” is displayed if the product doesn’t match the current set-point. To change to a new product (and set-point) press and hold the timer to choose the new setpoint. Once the new set-point is chosen, press the timer button to start the cook cycle.

Full vat operation: Only products with the same set-point and LED’s on, can be selected for cooking .

Split vat operation: Products with two different set-points and LED’s on, can be chosen.

The OFE884 series open fryer has several safety devices which shuts-down the electricity supply when they are activated. The above procedures should be followed to restart the open fryer and if the shut down is repeated, a qualified technician should be notified.

The Melt Cycle may be bypassed, if desired, by pressing and holding for 3 seconds.

Do not bypass the Melt Cycle unless enough shortening on gas fryers and elements on electric fryers. If Melt Cycle is bypassed before all burner tubes or elements are covered, excessive smoking of the shortening, or a fire will result.

3-2. FILLING OR

ADDING SHORTENING The shortening level must always be above the heating elements when the fryer is heating and at the frypot level indicators on the rear of the frypot. Failure to follow these instructions could result in a fire and/or damage to the fryer. Less than level will caught fire. When using solid shortening, it is recommended to melt the shortening on an outside heating source before placing it in the frypots. The heating element must be completely submerged in shortening. Fire or damage to the frypot could result.

1. It is recommended that a high quality frying shortening

be used in the open fryer. Some low grade shortenings have a high moisture content and will cause foaming and boiling over.

Wear gloves to avoid severe burns when pouring hot shortening into frypot. Shortening and all metal parts that are in contact with the shortening are extremely hot, and take care to avoid splashing.

2. Cold shortening should be filled to the lower indicator when the frypot has 2 indicator lines,

3-3. CARE OF SHORTENING

FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS BELOW TO

AVOID SHORTENING OVERFLOWING THE

FRYPOT, WHICH COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS

BURNS, PERSONAL INJURY, FIRE, AND/OR

PROPERTY DAMAGE.

1.Maintain the shortening at the proper cooking level. Add fresh shortening as needed.

2.Discard any shortening which has a bad flavor or shows signs of excessive foaming or boiling. Keep the frypot clean.

11

OFE14X

	WITH PROLONGED USE, THE FLASHPOINT OF
	SHORTENING IS REDUCED. DISCARD SHORTEN-
	ING IF IT SHOWS SIGNS OF EXCESSIVE
	SMOKING OR FOAMING. SERIOUS BURNS,
	PERSONAL INJURY, FIRE, AND/OR PROPERTY
	DAMAGE COULD RESULT.
3-4. FILTERING OF	1. Turn the main switch to the OFF position. Remove and
SHORTENING	clean the fry basket in soap and water. Rinse thoroughly.
(Optional Feature)
	Best results are obtained when shortening is filtered at the
	normal frying temperature
	2. Use metal spatula to remove any build up from the sides of
	frypot. Do not scrape heating elements on electric models.

Scraping the electric fryer elements produces scratches in these surfaces causing breading to stick and burn.

The filter drain pan must be placed all the way to the front of the fryer. Be sure dairy union is connected .Failure to follow these instructions causes splashing of shortening and could result in personal injury. Surfaces of fryer and baskets will be hot. Use care when filtering to avoid getting burned.

3.Slowly turn drain valve handle a half turn. Leave for a few minutes, then slowly, fully open drain valve. This prevents much splashing of the hot shortening as it drains

4.As the shortening drains from the frypot, use brushes on the heating elements. If the drain fills with breading, use straight white brush to push excess breading into the filter drain pan.

			OFE14X
3-4. FILTERING OF SHORTENING			IF THERE ARE AIR BUBBLES COMING UP
(Optional Feature)			IN THE SHORTENING BEFORE ALL
(Continued)			SHORTENING IS PUMPED UP, IT’S POSSIBLE
			THAT THE FILTER CONNECTION AT THE
			UNION ON THE FILTER TUBE IS NOT
			TIGHTENED PROPERLY. IF SO, TURN
			OFF THE PUMP AND WEAR PROTECTIVE
			GLOVES OR CLOTH WHEN TIGHTENING
			THE UNION. THIS UNION WILL BE HOT.
			SEVERE BURNS COULD RESULT.
5.			Pull out the pump handle, pump all of the shortening out of
			the filter drain pan and back into the frypot. When the pump
			is pumping air only, move the pump switch from PUMP to
			OFF.
6.			Check the level of the shortening in the frypot. Add fresh
			shortening if necessary, until it reaches the bottom level
			indicator line on the right wall of the frypot.
			About 10 to 12 filterings can be made with one filter
			paper envelope, depending on:
			the quantity and type of product fried and filtered
			he type of breading used
			the amount of crumbs left inside the filter drain
			pan. When the filter screen assembly and filter
			paper become clogged, and the pumping flow
			slows. Clean the filter screen assembly and
			change the filter envelope.
7.			To continue cooking, move the main POWER switch to
			the ON position, and shortening reheats.
3-5. FILTER PUMP PROBLEM			To help prevent filter pump problems:
PREVENTION (Optional Feature)
		1. Properly install paper envelope over the filter screens.
			Fold the open end of the envelope, and clamp with retaining
			clips so that crumbs cannot enter. Figure 3-2.
2.			Pump shortening, until you see bubbles in the fry pot.
	Figure 3-2
			13

	OFE14X
3-6. FILTER PUMP MOTOR	In the event it overheats, the filter pump motor is equipped with a
PROTECTOR – MANUAL RESET
(Optional Feature)	manual reset button located on the rear of the motor. After
	waiting 5 minutes to allow the motor to cool, press the reset
	button. It takes some effort to reset the motor. A screwdriver can
	be used to help press reset button. Figure 3-3.

To prevent burns caused by splashing shortening, turn the unit's filter PUMP switch to the OFF position before resetting the filter pump motor’s manual reset protection device.

3-7. CHANGING THE FILTER The filter envelope should be changed after 10-12 filterings or ENVELOPE (Optional Feature) whenever it becomes clogged with crumbs. Proceed as follows:

The filter union could be hot. Wear protective glove or cloth, or severe burns could result.

Use care to prevent burns caused by splashing of hot shortening.

1.Move the main POWER switch to the OFF position.

2.Disconnect the filter union and remove the filter drain pan from beneath the frypot.

3.Remove the filter screen assembly from the drain pan.

4.Wipe the shortening and crumbs from the filter drain pan. Clean the drain pan with soap and water. Thoroughly rinse with hot water.

5.Unthread the standpipe from the filter screen assembly.

6 Remove the crumb catcher and clean with soap and water. Rinse thoroughly with hot water.

7.Remove the filter clips and discard the filter envelope.

8.Clean the top and bottom filter screen with soap and water. Rinse thoroughly with hot water.

	OFE14X
3-8. CLEANING THE FRYPOT	After the initial installation of the open fryer, as well as before
	every change of shortening, the frypot should be thoroughly
	cleaned as follows:
1.	Turn the main POWER switch off

The filter drain pan must be as far back under fryer as it will go. Failure to follow these instructions causes splashing of shortening and could result in personal injury.

Moving the fryer or filter drain pan while containing hot shortening is not recommended. Hot shortening can splash out and severe burns could result.

Always wear chemical splash goggles or face shield and protective rubber gloves when cleaning the frypot as the cleaning solution is highly alkaline. Avoid splashing or other contact of the solution with your eyes or skin.

Severe burns may result. Carefully read the instructions on the cleaner. If the solution comes in contact with your eyes rinse thoroughly with cool water and see a

physician immediately.

2. If hot shortening is present in the frypot, it must be drained. Leave for a few minutes, then slowly open the valve to full open position.

3.Close the drain valve. Discard the shortening .

4Remove the filter screen assembly from the filter drain pan.

The filter union could be hot. Wear protective glove or cloth, or severe burns could result.

5.Fill the frypot to the level indicator with hot water. Add

4 ozs. (0.12 liters) of open fryer cleaner to the water and mix thoroughly. The fry basket can be placed inside the frypot for cleaning.

6.Turn the main POWER switch to the ON position and set temperature to 195 F (90.5 C).

7.When the solution reaches 195 F (90.5 C), turn the main POWER switch to the OFF position.
