3.1Equipment Setup and Shutdown Procedures

Setup

DANGER

Never operate the appliance with an empty frypot. The frypot must be filled with water, oil or shortening before energizing the elements. Failure to do so will result in irreparable damage to the elements and may cause a fire.

DANGER

Remove all drops of water from the frypot before filling with oil or shortening. Failure to do so will cause spattering of hot liquid when the oil or shortening is heated to cooking temperature.

1.Fill the frypot with oil to the bottom OIL LEVEL line located on the rear of the frypot. This will allow for oil expansion as heat is applied. Do not fill cold oil any higher than the bottom line; overflow may occur as heat expands the oil.

NOTE: If solid shortening is used, first raise the elements, then pack the shortening into the bottom of the frypot. Lower the elements, and then pack the shortening around and over the elements to the lower mark. It may be necessary to add shortening to bring the level up to the upper mark after the packed shortening has melted. Cooking oil/shortening capacity of H17 series fryer is 50 lbs. (25 liters) at 70°F (21°C).

DANGER

Never set a complete block of solid shortening on top of the heating elements.

When using solid shortening, always pre-melt the shortening before adding it to the frypot. If the shortening is not pre-melted, it must be packed down into the bottom of the frypot and between the elements, and the fryer must be started in the melt-cycle mode.

Never cancel the melt-cycle mode when using solid shortening. Doing so will result in damage to the elements and increase the potential for a flash fire.

2.Replace the basket support rack on top of the heating elements.

3.If the fryer is not hard-wired into the power supply, ensure that the power cord is plugged into the appropriate receptacle. Verify that the face of the plug is flush with the outlet plate, with no portion of the prongs visible.

E4 specifications

The Frymaster E4 is an advanced fryer that represents the cutting edge of commercial frying technology. Designed for efficiency and performance, it is favored by restaurants and fast-food chains looking to optimize their cooking processes while maintaining exceptional food quality.

One of the standout features of the Frymaster E4 is its programmable controls. With an intuitive digital interface, operators can easily adjust cooking temperatures, times, and even recipes with just a few taps. This level of precision ensures that food is consistently cooked to perfection every time, reducing waste and improving overall efficiency in the kitchen.

The E4 is equipped with high-performance burners that ensure rapid heating and recovery times. This means that cooking oil reaches the desired temperatures quickly, allowing for faster frying cycles. Thus, busy kitchens can meet high-demand periods without compromising quality or service speed. The fryer also features a high-efficiency oil filtration system that automatically removes contaminants and prolongs the life of the frying oil, resulting in a significant reduction in operating costs over time.

Another notable technology in the Frymaster E4 is its oil level management system, which actively monitors oil levels and alerts the operator when replenishment is necessary. This feature prevents overfilling or underfilling, both of which can negatively impact cooking performance and food quality.

Safety is also a top priority with the E4, as it incorporates features such as a built-in safety shut-off mechanism that activates if the temperature exceeds safe levels. Additionally, the fryer's robust construction minimizes the risks of spills and accidents in the kitchen, making it a reliable choice for high-traffic environments.

The Frymaster E4 also emphasizes energy efficiency, designed to meet stringent energy-saving standards without compromising performance. This is crucial in the current market, where energy costs can significantly impact overall profitability.

In conclusion, the Frymaster E4 offers an impressive combination of innovative technology, safety, and efficiency. Its programmable controls, high-performance frying capabilities, and advanced filtration and oil management systems make it an essential tool for any commercial kitchen aiming to enhance productivity and food quality. As the demands of the food industry continue to grow, the E4 stands out as a reliable partner for chefs looking to elevate their frying operations.
