1.2 CHECKING YOUR NEW FRYER

Your new fryer has been carefully packed into one crate. Every effort has been made to ensure
that your fryer is delivered to you in perfect condition. As you unpack your new fryer, inspect
each of the pieces for damage. If something is damaged, DO NOT sign the bill of lading.
Contact the shipper immediately, the shipper is only responsible for 15 days after delivery.
Check the packing list enclosed with your fryer to ensure that you have received all of the parts
to the fryer. If you are missing any parts, contact the dealer from whom the fryer was purchased.
As you unpack the fryer and it's accessories be careful to keep the weight of the fryer evenly
distributed.

CAUTION

To prevent equipment damage, don't tilt the fryer
onto any two of it's casters or pull the unit by the flue
vents.

1-1

Locate your Pitco Frialator warranty and fill in the serial number of the fryer and the date
received. You will find the serial number on the plate inside the door. Put your warranty card
in a safe place for future reference. DO NOT return the card to Pitco Frialator.

1.2.1 Check Your Order

The crate containing the fryer unit will also contain the following:

(2) Pitco Cleaner Sample
(1) Drain Clean Out Rod

1.3 ASSEMBLY AND LEVELING

When you receive your fryer, it is completely assembled with the possible exception of the legs (or
casters) and the heat shield. In some cases, if you have purchased a multi-fryer unit, you may need to
assemble the system.

1.3.1 Leg/Caster Installation and Adjustment

Installing the legs and leveling the fryer is done with a 7/16" wrench, socket, and a large pair of water
pump pliers. The legs/casters must be installed to provide the necessary height to meet sanitation
requirements and assure adequate air supply to the burner. Attach the legs by performing the following
procedure.

a. Lay the fryer on its side being careful not to damage the flue

by pulling on it. Protect the outside of the fryer with
cardboard or a drop cloth when laying it down.

b. Attach each leg/caster with the hex head cap screws sup-

plied with the fryer. Each leg/caster requires four 1/4-20 x
5/8" cap screws.

c. Mount the screws from the inside of the fryer with the nut

on the outside. The nuts have lock washers attached to
them, therefore it is not necessary to use lock washers.

d. When all four legs/casters are mounted, stand the unit up

being careful not to put too much weight on any one leg/
caster. Adjust the height and level the fryer by adjusting the
leveling devices on the leg/caster with the water pump
pliers.

e. On units with casters, move the fryer to the desired location

and lock the wheels using the locking devices on the
sides of the casters.

1.3.2 Assembling Multi Fryer Systems

If you purchased a multi-fryer unit, it could be shipped in more than one piece. To assemble the unit
follow the instructions below.

a. Unpack the units and move them close together. Remove the front panels and both heat

shields from the fryers.

b. There are five joining strips to be attached to the units to make them into one system. These

strips are attached in the rear, front, upper front, and the forward and rear caster mount. Use
the screws supplied with your system to attach the strips. Secure them tightly to each unit.

c. Replace the heat shield and front panels to complete the system assembly.

1.4 INSTALLATION

Although it is possible for you to install and set up your new fryer, it is STRONGLY recommended
that you have it done by qualified professionals. The professionals that install your new fryer will know
the local building codes and ensure that your installation is safe.

WARNING

ENGLISH

The fryer must be properly restrained to prevent movement or tipping. This
restraint must prevent the fryer from movements that would splash hot liquids
on personnel. This restraint may be any means (alcove installation, adequate
ties, or battery installation).

1.4.1 Installation Clearances

The fryer needs clearance around it for proper operation. Adequate clearances allow for servicing and
proper burner operation. The clearances shown below are for cooker installation in combustible and
non-combustible construction.

Combustible Non-Combustible

Construction Construction
Back 6" 0"
Sides 6" 0"
Floor - Combustible 6" 6"

1.4.2 Gas Connection

Your fryer will give you peak performance when the gas supply line is of sufficient size to provide the
correct gas flow. The gas line must be installed to meet the local building codes or National

1-3

Fuel Gas Code (NFPA 54-Latest Edition) and ANSI Z223.1-Latest Edition Latest Edition. In
Canada, install the fryer in accordance with CAN/CGA-B149.1 or .2 and local codes. Gas line
sizing requirements can be determined by your local gas company by referring to National Fuel
Gas Code, Appendix C, Table C-4 (natural gas) and Table C-16 (propane). The gas line needs
to be large enough to supply the necessary amount of fuel to all appliances without losing
pressure to any appliance. Other factors that are used to determine the piping requirements
are BTU requirements of the appliances being connected and the length of pipe between the
meter (main shut off) and the appliances.

WARNING

NEVER supply the fryer with a gas that is not indicated on the data plate. Using
the incorrect gas type will cause improper operation. If you need to convert the
fryer to another type of fuel, contact your dealer.

1.4.2.1 Fuel Types - Each fryer is equipped to work with one type of fuel. The type of fuel with
which the appliance is intended to operate is stamped on the data plate attached to the inside of the door.

WARNING

DO NOT use an open flame to check for gas leaks!

1.4.2.2 Gas Line Connection - Connect the fryer to the gas supply line with a connector that
complies with the Standard for Connectors for Movable Gas Appliances (ANSI Z21.69-Latest
Edition). If you are installing a fryer with casters use a quick disconnect refer to the Quick Disconnect
installation instruction, 1.4.2.3. Connect the gas line to the fryer using a pipe joint sealant that is resistant
to liquefied petroleum. If the fryer was disconnected during the fuel line testing, use a solution of soap
and water to leak test the new connection.

NOTICE

NEVER use an adaptor to make a smaller gas supply line fit the cooker
connection. This may not allow proper gas flow for optimum burner operation,
resulting in poor cooker performance.

1.4.2.3 Quick Disconnect Gas Connection - Gas fryers equipped with casters must be installed
with connectors that comply with the Standard for Connectors for Movable Gas Appliances, ANSI
Z21.69-Latest Edition, and Addenda Z21.69A-Latest Edition. This connection should include a
quick disconnect device that complies with the Standard for Quick Disconnect Devices for Use
With Gas Fuel , ANSI Z21.41-Latest Edition. When installing a quick disconnect you must also
install a means for limiting the movement of the fryer. This device will prevent the gas line or the
quick disconnect from being strained. The restraining device should be attached to the cooker on
the back panel as shown in the illustration. The quick disconnect, hose, and restraining device can
be obtained from your dealer.

1-4

1.4.2.4 Fuel Supply Line Leak and Pressure Testing - The fuel supply system must be tested before
the fryer is used. If the fuel line is going to be tested at a pressure greater than (>)1/2 PSIG (3.45 kPa),
make sure that the fryer is disconnected from the fuel line. If the fuel line is to be tested at a pressure
equal to or less than (<) 1/2 PSIG (3.45 kPa), the fryer can be connected but the unit's gas valve must
be shut. Test all gas line connections for leaks with a solution of soap and water when pressure is
applied.

1.4.3 Ventilation and Fire Safety Systems

Your new fryer must have proper ventilation to function safely and properly. Exhaust gas temperatures
can reach as high as 1200°F. Therefore, it is very important to install a fire safety system. Your
ventilation system should be designed to allow for easy cleaning. Frequent cleaning of the ventilation
system and the fryer will reduce the chances of fire. Table 1-2 provides a list of reference documents
that provide guidance on ventilation and fire safety systems. This table is not necessarily complete.
Additional information can be obtained from the American Gas Association, 8501 East Pleasant Valley
Road, Cleveland, OH 44131.

Excessive ventilation causes drafts, which will interfere with the proper operation of the pilot and
the burner. Leave at least 18 inches of open space between the fryer's flue vent opening and the
intake of the exhaust hood.

ENGLISH

CAUTION

Ensure that your ventilation system does not cause a down draft at the fryer's
flue opening. Down drafts will not allow the fryer to exhaust properly and will
cause overheating which may cause permanent damage. Damage caused by
down drafts will not be covered under equipment warranty. NEVER allow
anything to obstruct the flow of combustibles or ventilation exiting from the
fryer flue. DO NOT put anything on top of the flue area.

NOTICE

NEVER connect the blower directly to the flue openings. The direct flow of
air will cause poor temperature recovery, poor ignition, inefficient operation of
the fryer, and could extinguish the pilot.

1.5 INITIAL ADJUSTMENTS

After your fryer has been installed as described in section 1.4, it needs to be adjusted to ensure that it
will perform as designed. These adjustments must be performed by a qualified person. To perform
these adjustment the following tools will be needed:

• Manometer (low pressure gauge) • Digital Thermometer (Temperature probe)

• DC Millivolt Meter

1-5

1.5.1 Visual Checks

After the fryer is in its permanent location, lock the casters and check for levelness. Any additional
leveling that is necessary can be performed as described in section 1.3.

1.5.2 Burner Ignition Systems

CAUTION

Before going any further, fill the fryer with WATER. Water is used for the
installation adjustments because the temperature will never exceed 212°F
(100°C) thereby allowing plenty of adjustment time. Never let the water level
go below the MIN LEVEL mark on the rear of the tank.

WARNING

There is an open flame inside the fryer. The unit may get hot enough to set near
by materials on fire. Keep the area around the fryer free from combus-

To light the pilot light, refer to these instructions.

WARNING

Wait 5 minutes before attempting to relight the pilot to allow for any gas in the
fryer to dissipate.

a. Open the gas supply valves to the fryer.

b. Open the fryer's door to gain access to the controls. Turn the thermostat control knob

counterclockwise to the OFF position.

c. Turn the Unitrol valve knob to the PILOT position and push in on the

knob. Hold the knob in for approximately one minute to purge the air
out of the line. Hold a flame to the pilot light until the pilot ignites. This
may take a little while the first time you light the fryer because of air
in the lines. Once lit, hold the knob in for approximately 60 seconds
and then release.

d. If the pilot goes out wait 5 minutes and repeat step c. If after three

tries the pilot will not remain lit, refer to the operator troubleshoot­ing section of this manual.

e. Turn the Unitrol valve knob counterclockwise to the ON position.

f. Set the thermostat control knob to the desired temperature set-

ting.

g. The main burner will light and be controlled by the thermostat.

ENGLISH

h. To completely shut down the fryer, turn the Unitrol valve knob to pilot, push in and

continue turning to OFF.

1.5.2.1 Pilot Flame Adjustment - The pilot flame should be adjusted to produce the proper millivolt
output from the pilot sensing device. Millivolt output for the thermopile should be between 300 and
500 millivolts. This procedure is only necessary on the manual pilot ignition system. Figure 1-1 shows
the pilot assembly with examples of the incorrect and correct pilot size. Example A illustrates a pilot
flame size that is too small to produce sufficient millivolt output. Example B is the correct size for proper
millivolt output.

a. This test requires a DC millivolt meter set to a scale of 0-1000mv.

1-7

b. Locate the thermopile wires coming from the thermostat/High Limit box going to the

gas shut off valve. The wire insulation size decreases near the gas valve connec­tions.

c. Connect the negative (-) test probe to pilot bracket.

d. Connect the positive (+) test probe to to one of the High Limit terminal connections

e. Remove the pilot flame adjustment cover.

f. Turning the flame adjusting screw clockwise lowers the flame and the millivolt output.

Turning the screw counterclockwise increases flame size and millivolt output.

g. Rotate the screw in the direction to achieve a reading of 400 ±50 mv for thermopiles.

NOTICE

Allow 3 to 5 minutes between flame adjustments to allow the reading to settle.

h. Replace the pilot flame adjusting screw cover.

1.5.3 Main Burner System

For the burners to work, the gas supply valve must be open. The main burner receives gas from the
main gas supply through the thermostatically controlled valve. When the thermostat is turned up the
gas control valve opens. The pilot ignites the burners. The burner flame should be adjusted at the air
collar (at the bottom of the burner) so the the flame are a soft blue color without lifting off the face of
the burner.

1.5.3.1 Gas Line Requirements - A properly installed gas supply system will deliver 7.0 ±2.0" w.c.

natural gas (12.0 ±2.0" w.c. LP) to all appliances connected to the line, operating at full
demand.

1.5.3.2 Burner Adjustment - The burners must be adjusted to deliver optimum flame. Adjust the
burner flame using the following procedure.

a. Ensure that the Unitrol valve knob is in the OFF position. Remove the manifold pressure

tap plug and connect an accurate pressure gauge (range of 0-16" w.c. in 0.1" increments)
or manometer.

b. Light the pilot burner (see 1.5.2) for the unit being tested and adjust the thermostat to light

the main burners.

c. The installed pressure gauge reading should be the same, ±0.1", as that marked on the data

plate inside the door. If the pressure is correct go to step e, if not, adjust the pressure.

d. To adjust the pressure, remove the regulator adjustment screw cover (see Figure 1-3). Use

a flat tip screwdriver to adjust the screw until the proper pressure is reached. Turning the

screw clockwise will increase the pressure, counterclockwise will decrease the pressure.
e. When the pressure is correct, install the regulator adjustment screw cover.
f. To remove the pressure gauge, turn gas control valve to OFF. Remove the gauge and install

the pressure tap plug.
g. Now that the pressure is set for proper operation, set the main burner flame. Unlock the air

collars by loosening the set screw for the collars. See Figure 5. Turn the Unitrol valve knob

to ON and turn thermostat to light the main burners.
h. Adjust the shape and size by raising or lowering the air collars to achieve a soft blue flame

with well defined inner cones.

1.5.4 Initial Cleaning

When the fryer is shipped, many of its parts are covered with a thin coat of oil for protection.
Before the fryer is ready for cooking it must be cleaned. This will remove the oil coating and
any foreign matter that may have accumulated during storage and shipment. Perform the
cleaning as described below.

a . Fill the tank with water and add one packet of Pitco fryer cleaner or a mild detergent.

b. Turn the fryer on and set the thermostat to 200°F. Allow the fryer to heat for 15 minutes.

NOTICE

Do not leave the fryer unattended during cleaning. Never let the water level go

below the "Min Level" mark on the back of the tank.

c. Using the fryer cleaning brush, scrub the inside of the fryer to remove protective coating.

d. When cleaning is complete, turn off the fryer main burners and turn the Unitrol valve knob

to the PILOT position. Drain the water into a container suitable for hot water and dispose

of it.

e. When the tank has cooled, rinse it thoroughly with cool water. Continue to rinse the tank

until the cleaner has been rinsed, thoroughly from the tank.

f. Using a clean dry cloth, wipe out all of the water. Be very thorough removing the water,

because any residual water will cause hot oil to splatter out of the fryer.

Mild steel tanks must be wiped down/coated with oil to keep the tank from

rusting.

g. Now that the tank is clean, you are ready to fill and operate the fryer. Refer to 2.1 for

instructions on adding shortening to the fryer.

1.5.5 Thermostat Calibration Check

Thermostat calibration requires that the temperature of the fryer be raised above

boiling. Therefore, you will need to drain the water from the fryer and fill it with

oil. Before removing the water, perform the initial cleaning of the fryer.

Cleaning the fryer now will prevent you from having to drain the oil and refill

CAUTION

NOTICE

with water later.

Filling the fryer with oil is described in 2.1. To perform the calibration check detailed below you will
need a digital thermometer.

a. Place the tip of the thermometer in the shortening approximately 1" above the temperature

sensors.

b. Set the thermostat at 325°F and wait for the temperature reading on the thermometer to rise.

As the temperature rises toward 325°F watch the thermometer closely.
c. If the shortening temperature reaches 350°F and the burners DO NOT turn off, turn the

thermostat down. Keep lowering the thermostat setting until the burners go out.

CAUTION

If the burners do not turn off at the lowest thermostat setting, the thermostat

could be defective. Contact your representative immediately.

d. Let the fryer cycle 4 to 6 times before checking the temperature. Compare the thermometer

temperature against the thermostat setting. If the values are more than 5°F apart, calibrate

the thermostat using the appropriate calibration procedure in this manual.

Chapter 3: Owner Maintenance and Adjustments

This chapter provides you with the information and procedures necessary to perform basic fryer
maintenance and adjustments. If, after performing maintenance on your fryer, it does not perform
properly, contact your authorized service center.

3.1 WEEKLY FRYER CLEANING (BOIL OUT)

The fryer should be thoroughly cleaned once a week. This cleaning should include a complete
draining of the fryer and a boil out.

a . You will need a container large enough to hold 1 1/2 times the oil in one tank. This

container should also be able to withstand boiling water temperatures.

CAUTION

Completely shut down the fryer when the oil is to be replaced by water, and
when the heating portion of the cleaning is complete. This will prevent the
heating system from coming on during the oil draining and water filling
procedure.

b. Drain the oil from the fryer and discard or save for reuse. Remove tube rack/mesh tube

screens and remove any large debris from the bottom of the fry tank. Once clean, return
tube rack/mesh screens to the fry tank. Close the drain valve and fill the fry tank with
water and noncaustic detergent. For best results, use Pitco Fryer Cleaner, part number
P6071397.

c. Restart your fryer as described in 2.3 and set the thermostat to 200°F and bring the water

to a slow boil. DO NOT allow water to boil because excessive foaming will occur. Once
the water is at a slow boil turn off the fryer.

d. Allow the fryer to soak for 20 minutes to soften shortening deposits and carbon. Use the

fryer brush to remove any residue from tank, heating tubes, and side walls. Perform the
daily cleaning procedure described in section 2.6.

e . Wipe the tank dry with clean cloth wipes. Close the drain valve and remove the large

container.

f. Refer to section 2.1 to refill the fryer.

3.2 FLUE INSPECTION

It is recommended that once every six months, with the cooker cooled down, you examine the flue
area. Check for corrosion or blockage of the flue. Ensure that the cooker is shutdown and do not
turn it on during the examination. Examination of the flue area during cooking may cause bodily
injury.

Chapitre 2: Instructions de fonctionnement

Ce chapitre décrit comment utiliser la friteuse pour un rendement optimal. Vous y trouverez des instructions
sur le remplissage, l’utilisation et le nettoyage des friteuses à gaz.

2.1 REMPLIR LA FRITEUSE

Vous pouvez utilisez de la matière grasse liquide ou en bloc mais il est préférable d’utiliser de la matière grasse
liquide (huile). Pour faire fondre la matière grasse en bloc, suivez attentivement les instructions de la section

2.2.2.

2.1.1 Remplir la friteuse de matière grasse liquide

a. Assurez-vous que le robinet de vidange est

complètement fermé.

b. Remplissez la friteuse d’huile jusqu’au repère du

niveau d’huile (“Oil Level”) indiqué au dos de la
cuve.

Remplissez jusqu’au repère.

2.1.2 Remplir la friteuse de matière grasse en bloc

AVERTISSEMENT

Ne jamais faire fondre les blocs de matière garsse directement sur les
tubes du brûleur. Ceci provoquera un incendie et annulera la garantie.

a. Assurez-vous que le robinet de vidange est

complètement fermé.

b. Retirez le tamis recouvrant les tubes.

c. Coupez la matière grasse en cubes ne dépassant

pas 1 po (2,5 cm) de large. Veillez à TOUJOURS
placer la matière grasse sous, entre et sur le dessus
des tubes des brûleurs. NE PAS laisser de gros
espaces d’air. Faites attention à NE PAS plier ni
rompre les sondes de température. En effet, si ces
dernières sont endommagées, la friteuse ne pourra
fonctionner correctement.

FRANCAIS

d. Après avoir rempli la friteuse de matière grasse, faites fondre la matière grasse. Pour faire fondre la

matière grasse, reportez-vous au paragraphe “Mise en marche de la friteuse”, section 2.2.1, et au
paragraphe “Faire fondre la matière grasse en bloc”, section 2.2.2.

2-1

2.2 INSTRUCTIONS DE FONCTIONNEMENT

Afin que la nourriture soit toujours parfaitement cuite, suivez les instructions de préparation concernant les aliments
que vous comptez frire. Utilisez la meilleure matière grasse possible afin d’obtenir les meilleurs aliments frits. La
meilleure matière grasse durera plus longtemps que la matière grasse de qualité inférieure et vous permettra
d’économiser de l’argent. Lorsque vous n’utilisez pas la friteuse, laissez refroidir la matière grasse et recouvrez­la afin d’éviter toute contamination.

ATTENTION

La friteuse a été installée en utilisant des dispositifs de retenue et de fixation afin d’éviter
qu’elle ne bouge ni se renverse. Ne tentez pas de déplacer la friteuse lorsqu’elle contient
un liquide chaud à l’intérieur. Les éclaboussures de liquides chauds risquent de
provoquer des brûlures graves.

AVERTISSEMENT

NE PAS mélanger d’eau avec la matière grasse. Conservez tout liquide à l’écart de la
matière grasse chaude. Tout aliment surgelé tombant dans la matière grasse chaude
entraînera une ébullition intense.

2.2.1 Mise en marche de la friteuse

NE PAS METTRE EN MARCHE LA FRITEUSE SI ELLE NE CONTIENT PAS D’HUILE!

a. Allumez la veilleuse en suivant les instructions de la section 1.5.2.

b. Tournez le bouton de contrôle de température (thermostat) sur le réglage de température désirée. Ce

bouton se trouve derrière les portes avant ou sur le panneau de contrôle avant.

c. Les brûleurs principaux s’allumeront.

2.2.2 Faire fondre la matière grasseg

AVIS

Il vous faudra allumer et éteindre la friteuse pour faire fondre la matière grasse. Surveillez
attentivement la friteuse afin de vous assurer qu’il n’y a pas de fumée. Si vous remarquez
de la fumée, la matière grasse est en train de brûler. Afin d’éviter de brûler la matière
grasse, réduisez le temps durant lequel les brûleurs sont allumés.

a. Placez la valve Unitrol sur “ON” (marche).

b. Réglez le thermostat sur 150°F (65.5°C).

c. Laissez les brûleurs principaux s’allumer pendant environ quatre (4) secondes.

d. Baissez le thermostat jusqu’à ce que les brûleurs principaux s’éteignent.

2-2

e. Attendez 30 secondes..

f. Répétez les étape C à E jusqu’à ce que la matière grasse ait fondue.

g. Réglez le thermostat sur la température de fonctionnement normale. Les brûleurs demeureront

allumés en continu jusqu’à ce que la température de la matière grasse atteigne la température
consignée du thermostat.

h. Une fois la friteuse à sa température de fonctionnement, la friteuse fonctionne normalement et elle est

prête à fonctionner.

2.2.3 Éteindre la Friteuse:

Il existe deux modes d’arrêt de la friteuse, STANDBY (en attente) et COMPLETE (complet). Le mode d’arrêt
en attente empêchera aux brûleurs de s’allumer et de s’éteindre. Le mode d’arrêt complet coupe
l’arrivée de gaz à la friteuse. Éteignez la friteuse en:

STANDBY (en attente) Réglez le thermostat sur “OFF”. Tournez la commande de gaz dans

le sens des aiguilles d’une montre jusqu’à “PILOT” (veilleuse). La
machine est à présent en mode d’attente et ne pourra demeurer ainsi
que pendant une brêve période. NE JAMAIS laisser la machine
demeurer en mode d’attente toute une nuit.

COMPLETE (complet) Pour complètement éteindre la machine, appuyez et tournez la

commande de gaz dans le sens contraire à celui des aiguilles d’une
montre jusqu’à “OFF” (arrêt). La friteuse est à présent complètement
éteinte et peut être nettoyée et filtrée.

2. 3 NETTOYAGE QUOTIDIEN

Nettoyez votre friteuse tous les jours afin qu’elle fonctionne à son rendement optimal et conserve sa belle
apparence.

a. Essuyez toute trace de matière grasse sur l’extérieur de la friteuse. Nettoyez à l’aide d’un chiffon

pendant que l’huile est encore chaude.

b. Utilisez de l’eau chaude et un nettoyant peu puissant pour nettoyez la surface. Veillez à ne pas laisser

de l’eau entrer en contact avec l’huile et retirez toute trace de détergent à l’intérieur de la cuve.

c. Utilisez une poudre à récurer non-abrasive ou un tampon afin de nettoyer toute tâche rebelle.

d. rocédez au nettoyage par ébouillantage une foir par semaine comme indiqué ci-dessous.

FRANCAIS

2-3

Chapitre 3: Entretien et réglages à effectuer par le propriétaire 3-1

Ce chapitre vous offre des informations et des instructions nécessaires afin de procéder à l’entretien de la friteuse
et ses réglages. Si après avoir procédé à l’entretien de la friteuse et cette dernière ne fonctionne pas correctement,
contactez votre centre de réparation agréé.

3. 1 NETTOYAGE HEBDOMADAIRE (ÉBOUILLANTAGE)

Cette friteuse doit être complètement nettoyée une fois par semaine. Vidangez complètement la friteuse et
procédez à l’ébouillantage de la friteuse avec de l’eau.

a. Vous aurez besoin d’un contenant suffisamment grand et pouvant contenir 1 1/2 fois l’huile d’une cuve

de la friteuse. Ce contenant doit également pouvoir supporter des températures d’eau bouillante.

ATTENTION

Éteignez complètement la friteuse lorsque vous comptez remplacer l’huile par de l’eau
et lorsque vous avez terminé de chauffer la friteuse. Ceci évitera ainsi que le système de
chauffage ne s’allume lors de la vidange de l’huile et du remplissage d’eau.

b. Vidangez l’huile de la friteuse et jetez-la ou conservez-la afin de la réutilsier plus tard. Retirez les tamis

du tube de filtrage et du support ainsi que tout débris de grosse taille demeuré au fond de la cuve. Après
avoir nettoyé les tamis du tube de filtrage, replacez-les dans la friteuse. Fermez le robinet de vidange
et remplissez la cuve d’eau et de détergent non corrosif. Pour un meilleur résultat, utilisez le nettoyant
pour friteuse “Pitco Fryer Cleaner”, réf. P6071397.

c. Allumez à nouveau la friteuse comme il est décrit à la section 2.3 et réglez le thermostat sur 200°F

(93.3°C) et amenez lentement l’eau à ébullition. NE PAS laissez l’eau bouillir trop vite car cela
provoquera une mousse excessive. Une fois que vous avez amené l’eau à une lente ébullition, éteignez
la friteuse.

d. Laissez la friteuse tremper pendant 20 minutes afin de ramollir les résidus de matière grasse et de

carbone. Utilisez une brosse afin de retirer tout résidu demeuré collé à la cuve, aux tubes de chauffage
et aux parois latérales. Procédez au nettoyage quotidien décrit à la section 2.6.

e. Essuyez la cuve avec des chiffons propres jusqu’à ce qu’elle soit complètement sèche. Fermez le

robinet de vidange et retirez le contenant.

f. Reportez-vous à la section 2.1 afin de remplir la friteuse.

3.2 INSPECTION DE LA CONDUITE D’ÉVACUATION DE FUMÉE

Il est recommandé de vérifier le conduit d’évacuation de fumée une fois tous les six mois, après que la friteuse
ait refroidie. Vérifiez que le conduit ne présente pas de traces de rouille et n’est pas bouché. Assurez-vous
que la friteuse est éteinte et veillez ne pas l’allumer pendant la durée de l’inspection. En effet, vous risquez de
gravement vous blesser si vous inspectez le conduit d’évacuation de fumée si la friteuse est allumée.

3-1

3.3 GUIDE DE DÉPANNAGE

Cette section est destinée à vous aider si avez des problèmes avec la friteuse et avec les filtres. Si les mesures
correctives ne règlent pas le problème, contactez un réparateur qualifié ou l’usine. Les mesures correctives sont
offertes sous forme de diagramme.
