controlled to produce the optimum in a tasty , appealing
product.
sure is developed from the natural moisture of the food. The
patented lid traps this moisture and uses it as steam. Because
the steam builds rapidly , a greater part of the natural juices
are retained within the food. An operation valve vents excess
steam from the pot and maintains constant live steam
pressure.
Energy savings is realized due to the unit’ s short frying time,
low temperature, and heat retention of the stainless steel
frypot.
foods results in additional economies for the user. Foods are
table ready in less time than it would take to fry them in a conventional open-type fryer.
As of August 16, 2005, the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment directive went into effect for the European Union. Our
products have been evaluated to the WEEE directive. We have
also reviewed our products to determine if they comply with the

2-3. SELECTING THE
LOCATION
The proper location of the fryer is very important for operation,
speed, and convenience. Choose a location which will provide
easy loading and unloading without interfering with the final assembly of food orders. Operators have found that frying from raw to
finish, and holding the product in a warmer provides fast continuous
service. Landing or dumping tables should be provided next to at
least one side of the fryer. Keep in mind the best ef ficiency will be
obtained by a straight line operation, i.e. raw in one side and finish
out the other side. Order assembly can be moved away with only
a slight loss of efficiency . T o properly service the fryer, 24 inches
(60.96 cm) of clearance is needed on all sides of the fryer. Access
for servicing can be attained by removing a side panel.
To avoid fire and ruined supplies, the area under the
fryer should not be used to store supplies.
2-4. LEVELING THE FRYER
T o prevent sever e burns from splashing hot shortening,
position and install fryer to prevent tipping or movement. Restraining ties may be used for stabilization.
For proper operation, level the fryer from side to side and front to
back, using level on the flat areas around the frypot collar.
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE LEVELING
INSTRUCTIONS CAN RESUL T IN SHOR TENING
OVERFLOWING THE FRYPOT WHICH COULD
CAUSE SERIOUS BURNS, PERSONAL INJUR Y ,
FIRE AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
2-5 703
Model PFE- 590/592
2-5. VENTILATION OF FR YER The fryer should be located with provision for venting into
adequate exhaust hood or ventilation system. This is essential
to permit efficient removal of steam exhaust and frying odors.
Special precaution must be taken in designing an exhaust canopy to
avoid interference with the operation of the fryer. W e recommend
you consult a local ventilation or heating company to help in designing an adequate system.
V entilation must conform to local, state, and national codes.
Consult your local fire department or building authorities.
2-6. ELECTRICAL The electric fryer requires 208 or 240 volt, three phase, 50/60
REQUIREMENTS Hertz service. The power cord may be already attached to the
fryer, or provided at installation. Check the data plate mounted just
above the lid, on the left side of the back shroud, to determine the
correct power supply .
This fryer must be adequately and safely grounded
(earthed) or electrical shock could result. Refer to local
electrical codes for correct grounding (earthing) procedures or in absence of local codes, with The National
Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-(the curr ent edition). In Canada, all electrical connections are to be
made in accordance with CSA C22.1, Canadian Electrical Code Part 1, and/or local codes.
T o avoid electrical shock, this appliance must be
equipped with an external circuit breaker which will
disconnect all ungrounded (unearthed) conductors. The
main power switch on this appliance does not disconnect
all line conductors.
A separate disconnect switch with proper capacity fuses or breakers must be installed at a convenient location between the fryer and
the power source. It should be an insulated copper conductor
rated for 600 volts and 90o C. For runs longer than 50 feet
(15.24 m), use the next larger wire size.

2-7. INTERNA TIONAL Units being used outside the United States may not be shipped
ELECTRICAL with the power cord attached to the unit because of the different
REQUIREMENTS wiring codes. The fryers are available from the factory wired for
208, 240, 380 and 415 volts, 3 phase, 50 Hertz service. A terminal
block is mounted inside the fryer for the cable wiring. A decal on
the inside of the right side panel will help in the wiring of the unit.
CE units require a minimum wire size of 4mm to be wired to
the terminal block. If a flexible power cord is used, it must be
HO7RN type.
T o install the power cord, follow these procedures:
1. Remove the right side panel of the unit.
2. Install the cord, with a strain relief, to the junction box.
3. Attach the wires to the terminal block according to the wiring
diagram on the side panel.
4. Pull the slack out of the cord and thread it down through the
the clamp on the frame, at the rear, left leg of fryer . Then run
the cable under the frame and out the rear of the fryer, so it
doesn’t interfere with the filter drain pan.
The filter drain pan must be as far back under fryer as
it will go, and the cover in place. Be sure the hole in the
cover lines up with the drain before opening the drain.
Failure to follow these instructions causes splashing of
shortening and could result in personal injury .
5. Wiring the fryer is now complete.
