Daily Operation, General USE, Filtering

4. DAILY OPERATION

4.1OPENING: At opening time, always visually check that the power switch and the thermostat are “OFF”.

CAUTION

IF ELECTRICAL POWER SERVICE IS DISRUPTED FOR MORE THAN A FEW SECONDS, TURN FRYER OFF. THIS WILL PREVENT THE FRYER FROM ACCIDENTALLY HEATING OIL WHEN POWER SERVICE IS RESUMED.

4.2GENERAL USE:

a.For consistent quality product, convenience and long-term savings, use a high-quality liquid frying compound.

WARNING

IF USING SOLID SHORTENING, NEVER MELT A BLOCK OF SHORTENING BY SETTING IT WHOLE IN THE FRYER VESSEL. THIS IS DANGEROUS AND CAN EASILY CAUSE THE SHORTENING TO OVERHEAT, SCORCH, DAMAGE THE ELEMENTS OR POSSIBILY A FIRE.

b. Although a temperature of 350°F (177°C) is recommended for most cooking operations, set the fryer at the lowest possible temperature which produces a high quality end product while ensuring maximum life of frying compound.

When the fryer is not in use, the thermostat should be set lower than that used during cooking.

4.3TURN ON PROCEDURES:

a.If fryer is empty, pour enough frying compound into the vessel to fill the vessel to the "oil level” line scribed on the rear wall. If solid shortening is to be used, melt enough in a separate container to cover the heating elements in the bottom of the vessel, then melt the

rest in the vessel by turning power switch off and on.

b. Turn the power switch on; set temperature controller to 350°F (177°C). In less than 30 minutes, the frying compound temperature will stabilize and be ready for production.

4.4FILTERING:

a.Filter the frying compound at least once daily or more frequently if cooking is heavy. Prior to filtering, align the filter unit with the drain valve. Attach the drain valve extension to ensure frying compound flows into the filter unit safely.

b.Filtering the frying compound assures a better taste to the food being prepared, minimizes flavors being transferred from batch to batch, and increases frying compound lifespan.

c.If using solid shortening, clear return lines before turning off the filter motor and hang any flexible lines up to drain. As it cools, solid shortening solidifies and clogs lines.

CAUTION

WHEN FILTERING, NEVER LEAVE THE FILTER UNATTENDED. ALWAYS POINT THE FLEXIBLE OIL RETURN HOSE NOZZLE DOWN INTO THE FRY VESSEL TO PREVENT THE SPRAYING OF HOT OIL WHICH MAY CAUSE SEVERE BURNS.

4.5CLOSING: When closing at night, filter oil in all fryers and drain the filter lines. Cover the open tanks of oil. Turn power switch “OFF”.

4.6SHUTDOWN: When shutting down for periods longer than overnight, drain the frying compound and clean the vessel thoroughly. Either discard the frying compound or return it filtered to the vessel and then cover it. Turn both the power switch and temperature controller “OFF”.
