24G SERIES FLATBOTTOM GAS FRYERS
CHAPTER 4: FRYER OPERATIONS
4.2 Boil-Out Procedure (cont.)
CAUTION
Do not leave fryer unattended. The boil-out solution may foam and overflow. If this happens, turn the Thermatron dial to the lowest setting and the power switch "Off". Resume boil out when foam dissipates.
8.Do not allow the water level to decrease below the upper oil level line in frypot during boil-out operation.
WARNING
Water or boil-out solution MUST not be allowed to drain into the filter pan or filter system.
Irreversible damage will result if water is allowed into the system.
9.Thermatron Controller-Equipped Fryers: After boil out is complete, turn the Thermatron dial to the lowest setting and turn fryer power switch to "Off". Filtration/Boil-Mode-equipped fryers: After boil out is complete, turn the boil-out and fryer switches to "Off". Drain the solution from the frypot. Place a metal stockpot of sufficient size to safely hold the entire contents of the frypot under the drain port to collect the water/boil-out solution. Do not allow water or boil-out solution to drain into the filter pan. The filter pump is not designed for water operation, and will be irreparably damaged.
10.Refill the frypot with fresh water and vinegar to neutralize any residual boil-out solution. Wash all surfaces of the frypot. Drain completely and wipe down all surfaces of the frypot to eliminate water from the frypot.
IMPORTANT!
Refill frypot with oil or wipe frypot interior with oil immediately to prevent oxidation and rust
from forming.
WARNING
All drops of water MUST be removed from frypot before filling with cooking oil. Do not turn fryer on to dry…extensive damage to frypot will occur, and ALL applicable warranties will be voided.
DANGER
Do not go near the area directly over the flue outlet while the fryer is operating.
Always wear oil-proof, insulated gloves when working with the fryer filled with hot oil.
Allow oil/shortening to cool to 100°F (38°C) before draining into an appropriate container for
disposal.
NOTE: Where approved, it is recommended that the boil-out procedure be performed each time the oil is changed.
