CHAPTER 4: FRYER OPERATIONS

4.1 Initial Start-up

WARNING

The on-site supervisor is responsible for ensuring that operators are made aware of the inherent hazards of operating a hot oil frying system, particularly the aspects of system operation, oil filtration, draining and cleaning procedures.

Cleaning: New units are wiped clean with solvents at the factory to remove any visible signs of dirt, oil, or grease remaining from the manufacturing process, and then coated lightly with oil. Before any food preparation, wash thoroughly with hot, soapy water to remove any film residue and dust or debris then rinse out and wipe dry. Also wash any accessories shipped with the unit. Close the drain valve completely and remove the crumb screen covering the heating tubes. Ensure the screws holding the thermostat and high-limit control sensing bulbs into the frypot are tight.

Typical high-limit/sensor probe locations and mounting hardware.

WARNING

Do not bang fry baskets or other utensils on the fryer’s joiner strip. The strip is present to seal the joint between the frypot. Banging fry baskets on the strip to dislodge shortening will distort the strip, adversely affecting its fit. It is designed for a tight fit and should only be removed for cleaning.

DANGER

Never operate this appliance with an empty frypot. The frypot must be filled with water or cooking oil/shortening before lighting the burners. Failure to do so will damage the frypot and may cause a fire.

WARNING

When checking for burner ignition or performance, do not get too close to the burners. Slow ignition can cause possible flashback, increasing the potential for facial and body burns.
