Do Not Overload The Basket With Food

Automatic Lift Fryer	Introduction

Do Not Overfill The Fryer With Shortening

Hot shortening and steam may escape and burn you if you put too much shortening in the fryer. Fill the fryer to approximately one inch below the fill marks that are inside the fryer pot. Heat the shortening. If needed, carefully add more shortening to bring the level to the fill marks.

Do Not Let Any Water Get Into The Fryer

Always remove excess moisture from food before placing it into the fryer basket. Water will cause the hot shortening to spatter. You could be burned.

Wear Safe Clothing Appropriate To Your Job

Always wear your insulated mitts when handling the fryer basket or touch any hot metal surfaces. You received a pair of insulated mitts with your fryer. If you lose or damage your mitts, you can buy new ones at your local restaurant equipment supply store or from your local BKI Distributor.

Always wear non-skid shoes when working around the fryer or any other equipment that uses shortening. Never wear loose clothing such as neckties or scarves while operating your fryer. Keep loose hair tied back or in a hair net while operating your fryer.

Always wear appropriate personal protection equipment during the filtering process to guard against possible injury from hot oil.
