47 SERIES GAS FRYERS

CHAPTER 3: OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

3.1Start-Up Procedure

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

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

CAUTION

The cooking oil/shortening capacity of the 47 Series fryer is 50 lbs (25 liters) at 70°F (21°C) for a full-pot and 25 lbs (12.5 liters) at 70°F (21°C) for each half of a split-pot. Before lighting the fryer, make sure the fryer is OFF and the frypot drain valve(s) is/are closed. Remove the basket support rack(s), if installed, and fill the frypot to the bottom OIL LEVEL line. If solid shortening is being used, make sure it is packed down into the bottom of the frypot.

NOTE: For units configured as pilot ignition (millivolt) systems, the pilot must be manually lit before the fryer can be placed into operation. On fryers configured with electronic ignition, the pilot is automatically lit when the unit is turned on.

ACCESSING THE PILOT

In full-vat units, the pilot is mounted on the left side of the burner manifold and is accessed through an opening in the front frypot insulation. In dual-vat units, there is a pilot on both the left and the right halves of the burner manifold. In either case, swing the round cover over the opening out of the way and insert a long match or taper through the hole to light the pilot.

LIGHTING THE PILOT ON NON-EUROPEAN (NON-CE) FRYERS

1.Ensure power to the unit is OFF, then turn the gas valve knob to the OFF position. Wait at least 5 minutes, then rotate the gas valve knob to the PILOT position (see Figure 1).
