Component Location & Function. Refer to Figure 1-2.
Toastmaster fry kettles are deep fryers designed to efficiently fry a wide variety of food products by immersion into heated
liquified shortening.
Power “ON/OFF” Switch located at front of fryer and equipped with a green signal light.
Thermostat is adjustable from 250°F to 400°F (121.1°C to 204.4°C) with a positive “OFF” setting. An amber signal
light cycles with the heating elements.
Temperature Limiting Thermostat senses overheated conditions. A red signal light illuminates when the temperature
limiting thermostat senses an overheated condition and electric current to the heating element is interrupted. The
fryer must not be operated under these conditions. The reset button for the auxiliary thermostat is located at the back
of the control housing. When the shortening has cooled to a safe temperature, the reset button may be pushed in,
and the heating elements will be re-energized. To maintain safety, use a non-metallic or non-conducting stick to reset
the thermostat.
Heating Elements heat the shortening in the container to the set temperatures. The shortening heats progressively
from the bottom and all four sides creating turbulence and thoroughly mixing the hot shortening. This results in even
temperature distribution in the frying zone above the heating elements. A comparatively undisturbed cold zone below
the heating elements is used to collect carbonized food particles.
COUNTERTOP FRYERS
Swing Up Element Assembly Handle is used to lift the element assembly out of the shortening.
CAUTION:
Do not lift the heating assembly out of the shortening
when power switch is on.
Shortening Container is the vessel which contains the shortening and the frying baskets.
Frying Baskets hold the food product during frying.
Basket Support used to hand basket from, to allow excess shortening to drain off.
