SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE USE

GENERAL

Hobart HFD/HFC Series Electric Fryers are available in 3 sizes with an array of features and options for a range of commercial fryer applications. While the overall tank width on the HF40 and HF50 are the same, the HF50 has a deeper tank area than the HF40.

Model HF Series Fryers can be free standing or arranged in batteries of 2 to 5 fryers. The number preceding the model number of your fryer refers to the number of fryers in a battery. One fryer in a battery can be a Frymate Dump Station (HFO15 for HF40 and HF50, HFO21 for HF85) (only one per battery).

HFD Fryers have a solid state thermostat and HFC Fryers have a microprocessor (computer) thermostat and timer control.

Feature options include Basket Lift(s) with Timer(s); Tri, Twin, or Single Baskets; Filter Ready and Battery Interplumbing. Finish options include S/S Sides and Casters. S/S Legs are standard.

Your Hobart fryer is constructed and designed to give long satisfactory service, providing it is properly installed, adjusted and maintained.

The Mobile Filter is covered under a separate Installation and Operation Manual.

BATTERY CONFIGURATIONS

Batteries of up to five fryers wide can be configured with any HF Series Fryer or HFO Frymate Dump Station (either 15

⁄2" [39.3 cm] or 21" [53.3 cm] wide). Possible configurations showing positions A thru

E are depicted below:

NOTES:

= Dump Station; = Fryer.

*Indicates filter interplumbing not available. A mobile filter can be located under any position in a battery if it has been built without an HFO Frymate. A mobile filter can be located under any position in a battery if the line-up has been built with an HFO Frymate located at either end of the battery. When an HFO Frymate is built between two fryers within a battery, the filter is located under the HFO Frymate. All options and accessories can be used with batteried equipment. HFO15 is used on Models HF40 or HF50. HFO21 is used on Model HF85.

INSTALLATION

Before installing the fryer, verify that the electrical service agrees with the specifications on the fryer data plate which is located on the inside of the door panel.

UNPACKING

Immediately after unpacking the fryer, check for possible shipping damage. If the fryer is found to be damaged, save the packaging material and contact the carrier within 15 days of delivery.

Do not use the door or its handle to lift or move the fryer.

LOCATION

The fryer may be installed at 0" clearance from the back or side walls. A 16" (40.6 cm) clearance is required between the fryer and any open top flame burner. Position the fryer for easy accessibility for service.

INSTALLATION CODES AND STANDARDS

Your Hobart fryer must be installed in accordance with:

1. State and local codes.

2. The National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70 (latest edition). Copies may be obtained from the National Fire Protection Association, Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269.

3. NFPA Standard #96.

ASSEMBLY

The fryer must be restrained with adequate ties to prevent tipping when installed in order to avoid the splashing of hot liquid.

Legs

Position fryer in an open space near the final installation area. Tilt fryer on its side, being careful to avoid scratching the finish. Thread legs into mounting holes provided on bottom of fryer by screwing in a clockwise rotation until tight.

Carefully raise fryer to its normal position and place it in the installing location.

Casters (Optional)

It is recommended that casters be installed on all batteried appliances. A strain relief is supplied to protect the electrical supply line.

If it is necessary to disconnect the restraint, unplug electrical supply before disconnection. Reconnect the restraint before plugging the electrical supply in and returning the fryer to its installation position.

Instructions for installing casters to the fryer are included with the casters.

STRAIN RELIEF FITTING FOR ELECTRIC THIS SIDE ONLY.

(Strain relief fitting supplied by Hobart. Chain to be supplied by others.)

LEVELING

Place a carpenter's level on top of the fryer and level the fryer front-to-back and side-to-side by turning the adjustable legs.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS WARNING: ELECTRICAL AND GROUNDING CONNECTIONS MUST COMPLY WITH THE NATIONAL

ELECTRICAL CODE AND/OR OTHER LOCAL CODES. WARNING: DISCONNECT ELECTRICAL POWER SUPPLY AND PLACE A TAG AT THE

DISCONNECT SWITCH TO INDICATE THAT YOU ARE WORKING ON THE CIRCUIT. WARNING: APPLIANCES EQUIPPED WITH A FLEXIBLE ELECTRIC SUPPLY CORD ARE

PROVIDED WITH A THREE-PRONG GROUNDING PLUG. IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT THIS PLUG BE CONNECTED INTO A PROPERLY GROUNDED THREE-PRONG RECEPTACLE. IF THE RECEPTACLE IS NOT THE PROPER GROUNDING TYPE, CONTACT AN ELECTRICIAN. DO NOT REMOVE THE GROUNDING PRONG FROM THIS PLUG.

Place fryer as near to its final position as possible. Connect 3 phase line to X, Y and Z of terminal block.

To reach terminal block, remove electric cover plate from fryer. For each 15

⁄2" (39.3 cm) and 21" (53.3 cm) section, a 3 phase supply line capable of handling the required KW at the fryer's rated voltage (208, 240, 480) is needed. Refer to the fryer data plate for this electrical information.

If a fan interlock is needed, it should be connected to 1 and 2 on the 4 pole barrier strip. 1 and 2 go to a set of dry contacts on the power switch.
