4.5.1 Filter Operation (cont.)
11.Lower the elements into the frypot.
12.Replace the basket support rack, using care not to splash hot oil.
13.Ensure the drain valve is fully closed. (If the drain valve is not fully closed, the fryer will not operate.) Turn the fryer ON and allow the oil to reach setpoint.
14.Do not allow crumbs to accumulate in the crumb tray. The crumb tray MUST be emptied into a fireproof container at the end of frying operations EACH DAY (see DANGER statement below).
Replace the basket support rack, using care not to splash hot oil.
Empty the filter pan crumb tray into a fire- proof container at the end of frying operations each day. DO NOT ALLOW CRUMBS TO ACCUMULATE IN TRAY.
DANGER
The crumb tray in fryers equipped with a filter system must be emptied into a fireproof container at the end of frying operations each day. Some food particles can spontaneously combust if left soaking in certain shortening material.
WARNING
Do not bang fry baskets or other utensils on the fryer’s joiner strip. The strip is present to seal the joint between the fry vessels. Banging fry baskets on the strip to dislodge shortening will distort the strip, adversely affecting its fit. It is designed for a tight fit and should only be removed for cleaning.
WARNING
The filter pump is equipped with a manual reset switch in case the filter motor overheats or an electrical fault occurs. If this switch trips, turn off power to the filter system and allow the pump motor to cool 20 minutes before attempting to reset the switch (see photo below).
