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.
4.5Draining and Disposing of Waste Oil
When your oil has reached the end of its usable life, drain the oil into an appropriate container for transport to the disposal container. Frymaster recommends the use of the McDonald’s Shortening Disposal Unit (MSDU). NOTE: If using an MSDU built before January 2004, the filter pan cover must be removed to allow the unit to be positioned beneath the drain. To remove the lid, lift up on the front edge and pull it straight out of the cabinet. Refer to the documentation furnished with your disposal unit for specific operating instructions. If a shortening disposal unit is not available, allow the oil to cool to 100°F (38°C), then drain the oil into a metal stockpot or similar metal container. When draining is finished, close the fryer drain valve securely.
DANGER
Allow oil to cool to 100°F (38°C) before draining into an appropriate container for disposal.
When draining oil into a disposal unit, do not fill above the maximum fill line located on the container.
