Belshaw Brothers manual MN-1141EN 718LCG, 724CG, and 734CG Gas Fryers

4.Move the on/off switch to the OFF position.

5.Rotate the gas control knob counterclock- wise to the ON position.

6.Move the on/off switch to the ON position.

The yellow pilot light near the on/off switch and the red pilot light on the fryer cabinet will both light up.

7.Push the button on the digital controller, “SP1” will light up. This is the set point. Push the up and down arrows to adjust the convection heat set point. See Figure 4-4. Push “R” button to return to operational mode.

If the pilot fails to ignite within a certain length of time, the gas system will go into safety lock-out. If this happens, move the on/off switch to OFF, wait at least one minute, and then move the on/off switch to ON again.

WARNING

Failure to wait at least one minute for the gas to dissipate could result in a fire or an explosion when the pilot is lighted again.

If the shortening temperature exceeds 435°F/224°C, the high-temperature limit control will break the circuit, and the electrical and gas systems will shut off.

If this happens, follow these steps to reset the system:

a.Move the on/off switch to the OFF position.

b.Wait for the shortening to cool to 385°F/196°C or below. You will not be able to ignite the pilot until the shortening reaches this temperature.

c.Move the on/off switch to the ON position.

8.Continue adding shortening to the kettle until it reaches the proper depth for frying.

Use one of the following methods. For safety reasons, we recommend the first method, and discourage you from using any other method.

•Use a Belshaw Shortening Melter (FM) to melt shortening and transfer it to the kettle. See the FM manual.

•Melt shortening in a pan on the stove and pour it into the kettle.

•Very carefully put solid shortening into the kettle.

WARNING

To avoid serious burns, be very careful not to splatter hot shortening when you add shortening to the kettle.

Because shortening expands as it increases in temperature, put shortening in the kettle gradually. Let the shortening in the kettle heat up before you add more.

9.Wait for the shortening to reach the desired temperature.

WARNING

To avoid serious burns, when the fryer is operating, do not touch the flue, exhaust manifold, stacks, gas burners, or any part of the fryer that is in contact with hot shortening. Keep clear from the area above the flue outlet.

10.If you are frying cake or French donuts, move the cutter into place over the fryer. Refer to the cutter manual for complete installation and operation instructions.

If you are frying yeast-raised donuts using a feed table, load proofing cloths on the feed table. Refer to the feed table manual for complete installation and operation instructions.
