Initial START-UP, Final Preparation | Frymaster Electric Fryer

3.5INITIAL START-UP:

a.CLEANING: New units are wiped clean with solvents at the factory to remove any visible signs of dirt, oil, grease, etc. remaining from the manufacturing process, then coated lightly with oil. Wash thoroughly with hot, soapy water to remove any film residue and dust or debris before food preparation, then rinse out and wipe

dry. Wash also any accessories shipped with the unit. Close the drain valve completely and remove the crumb screen. Make sure the screws holding the thermostat and limit control sensing bulbs into the vessel are tight.

b.HEATING THE VESSEL: This step checks heater element operation, initial thermostat calibration, and cleans the vessel for initial food production.

1.Fill the fryer vessel with hot or cold water to the oil level line scribed in the back of the tank.

2.Set the thermostat/temperature controller dial to 100°C/220°F, just above that of boiling water.

3.Toggle the power switch “ON”. The heater elements will begin heating.

4.When the water starts to boil, turn the dial to below 99°C/210°F. The elements will turn off and the water will stop boiling.

5.When satisfied that the heaters and thermostat operate properly, drain the vessel of water and dry thoroughly. Refill fry vessel with shortening as directed in section 3.6, Final Preparation.

3.6FINAL PREPARATION:

a.When using liquid shortening (cooking oil), fill the fryer to the “oil level” line scribed into the back of the fryer vessel.

b.When using solid shortening, either melt it first, or cut into small pieces and pack into cool zone (bottom) of the frying vessel. Be careful to not leave any air spaces or disturb the sensing bulbs. Melt shortening by turning the heaters “ON” for about five or ten seconds, “OFF” for a minute, repeating cycle until shortening is melted. If oil starts to smoke while melting this way, shorten the “ON” cycle and lengthen the “OFF” cycle. Smoke shows that you are scorching the shortening and cutting its useful life.

NOTE: Never melt a solid block of shortening by setting it in the vessel or on top of the heating elements. This is unsafe, inefficient, and dangerous.

c.When the fryer vessel is filled and the shortening melted, replace the crumb screen over the heater elements.

d.Before starting operation, turn the temperature controller to the probable working temperature; wait for the temperature to stabilize then check with a high-quality immersion thermometer.
