OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

PLACE THE LAMINATED WARNING SIGN SUPPLIED WITH THE FRYER IN AN AREA VISIBLE TO THE FRYER OPERATOR.

CLEAN KETTLE BEFORE USING

Take out baskets, push and hold element catch, lift up on element lift handle until elements lock in a vertical position, and remove kettle. The kettle can be cleaned in a sink like any other pot or container.

ADDING FAT

Replace kettle and swing the element down, making fryer ready for use. Add fat. A fat

level line on the rear of the kettle will guide you in determining the minimum cold fat level.

A higher fat level can be used when frying bulky foods, such as chicken or ish cakes. The fat level should be chosen carefully so that the foaming action of the fat does not spill out of the kettle. If solid shortening is used, pack carefully around the elements.

CONTROLS

1.ON/OFF TWO-POLE SWITCH - Located on the front panel is a two-pole switch which turns power on or off. An indicator light (Power On) is located on the control housing.

2.THERMOSTAT CONTROL - Located on the Control Housing, this control allows you to select the desired frying temperature. A signal light "Heating" indicates when the element is on. When the light goes off, the desired temperature has been reached.

3.HI-LIMIT THERMOSTAT - Should fat temperatures reach 450°F (230°C), this control

will shut off the power. Both lights on the control panel will go out. The fat temperature must cool to 400°F (202.4°C) and the manual reset button located on the back panel of the control housing must be pressed to restore operation. Should the

hi-limit control activate twice in succession, the primary thermostat should be checked for malfunction by a qualiied service technician.

FRYING

After fat has been added, turn the switch on and set the thermostat at 200° F (92.4° C). After the fat has melted, turn the thermostat to the desired setting. Included in this instruction

booklet is a frying chart and some helpful hints on fat use. After the selected fat temperature has been reached, slowly lower half illed baskets into the fat. Do not overload baskets as

this causes foods to be improperly fried.

NOTE: Baskets should be allowed to drain after frying cycle. The kettle handles serve as basket hangers.

IDLING

During idle periods turn thermostat control to approximately 200°F (92.4°C). The fast recovery fryers can be brought up to frying temperature in a matter of minutes. Lowering

the temperature during idle periods saves energy costs and prolongs fat life.

INAPPROPRIATE USE DUE TO A LACK OF COMMON SENSE MAY RESULT IN PRODUCT DAMAGE OR PERSONAL INJURY.
