Model 3HFD140 & 4HFD140 Electric Fryers

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

GENERAL

The model 3HFD140 electric fryer has a unitized cabinet with one 85 lb. fry tank on the left, one 140 lb. fry tank on the right, and a 25" Frymate station positioned between the two fry tanks. Built-in underneath the left fry tank and the Frymate station is a filter unit plumbed to drain cooking oil from either the 85 lb. fry tank on the left or the 140 lb. fry tank on the right. The system filters the oil as it is pumped back to its respective tank. Valves inside the doors under each fry tank must be set so only one tank is being drained, filtered, and pumped back at any one time.

The model 4HFD140 electric fryer has the same equipment as the 3HFD140 except it has a second 140 lb. fry tank on the extreme right side.

Standard features include stainless steel (front and sides) and electronic solid state temperature controls with fat melt feature for each tank. The 85 lb. fry tank on the left side is provided with two basket lifts including an automatic timer for each basket.

INSTALLATION

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

UNPACKING

Immediately after unpacking, 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.

The following components are shipped separate from the fryer: Two Fry Baskets; One Crumb Screen for each Fry Tank; Filter Tank, Filters, and Lid, and the Oil Hose.

LOCATION

The fryer may be installed at 0" clearance from the back or side walls.

INSTALLATION CODES AND STANDARDS

The fryers must be installed in accordance with: 1) State and local codes; 2) The National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70 (latest edition), available from The National Fire Protection Association, Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269; and 3) NFPA Standard #96.

LEVELING — LEGS or CASTERS

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.

To adjust a fryer equipped with casters, first determine which caster(s) must be adjusted. Then lift and block the fryer so it is adequately supported. Next, loosen the set screw on the shank of the caster(s) that need to be adjusted. Raise or lower the caster(s) as needed by turning the lower portion of the caster assembly; then re-tighten the set screws. Set the fryer back on the floor. Lock the front casters’ brakes during use.

Caster equipped fryers must be provided with a restraint device attached to the juncture of the vertical and horizontal frame members at the rear to prevent strain on the connectors. Reconnect this restraint after any power disconnection before reconnecting the electrical power supply.
