Operation2

Read each step completely before doing what it tells you to do.

1.If you are frying yeast-raised donuts, install the proofer or feed table. Refer to the proofer or feed table manual for complete installation and operation instructions.

2.Make sure the drain valve is closed.

3.Put enough shortening in the kettle to completely cover the heating elements, thermocouple, and high-temperature limit control probe.

Put shortening in the kettle using one of these methods:

šIf you have a Belshaw Shortening Melter (FM) attached to the fryer, use the FM to melt shortening and transfer it to the kettle. See the FM manual.

WARNING

Hot shortening causes severe burns.

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

šPut solid shortening into the kettle, packing it tightly around the heating elements, thermocouple, and high- temperature limit control probe.

WARNING

Air spaces can cause the shortening to

overheat and catch on fire.

4.Move the on/off switch to the ON position. The switch is located inside the fryer cabinet, on the right hand side.

The “Power On” pilot light on top of the heater head will light up.

5.Set the thermostat to 250“ F/121“ C. The “Heating” pilot light on top of the heater head will light up, indicating that the shortening has not yet reached the selected temperature.

6.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.

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

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

šVery 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.

7.After all of the shortening has melted, set the thermostat to the desired frying temperature.
