Disconnect power to the filter system, remove the input plumbing from the pump, and use a screwdriver to manually turn the gears.

●Turning the pump gears in reverse will release a hard particle.

●Turning the pump gears forward will push softer objects and solid shortening through the pump and allow free movement of the gears.

Incorrectly sized or installed paper/pads will also allow food particles and sediment to pass through and clog the suction tube on the bottom of the filter pan. Particles large enough to block the suction tube may indicate that the crumb tray is not being used. Pan blockage can also occur if shortening is left in the pan and allowed to solidify. Blockage removal can be accomplished by forcing the item out with an auger or drain snake. Compressed air or other pressurized gases should not be used to force out the blockage.

1.9.2 Replacing the Filter Motor, Filter Pump, and Related Components

1. Drain the frypots into a Shortening Disposal Unit (SDU) or other appropriate metal container.

DANGER

DO NOT drain more than one full frypot or two split frypots into the SDU at one time.

2.Disconnect the fryer from the electrical power supply and reposition it to gain access to both the front and rear.

3.Disconnect the two flexlines running to the oil-return manifold at the rear of the fryer as well as the pump suction flexline at the end of the filter pan connection (see photo below).

Disconnect flexlines indicated by the arrows.

4.Remove the cover plate from the front of the motor and disconnect the motor wires.

5.Unplug the pump motor assembly 6-pin connector C-2 and, using a pin pusher, disconnect the vent vacuum-breaker solenoid (pins 2 and 5) that is attached to the oil return manifold.

The RE80 is equipped with a state-of-the-art digital control panel, allowing operators to adjust frying temperatures and times with precision. This technology contributes to better food quality and consistency by enabling users to program specific frying cycles for different menu items. The panel also includes built-in diagnostics that provide real-time feedback on machine performance, alerting operators to potential issues before they become problems.

The Frymaster RE80’s design prioritizes safety and ease of use. It incorporates safety features such as an automatic shut-off system and a cool-to-the-touch exterior to prevent burns during operation. The unit is ergonomically designed to facilitate easy loading and unloading of baskets, making it more user-friendly for busy kitchen staff.

In terms of capacity, the RE80 is robust, allowing for a high volume of food to be fried simultaneously. This feature is crucial for establishments that experience large customer volumes, ensuring that service remains swift and efficient even during peak hours.

Furthermore, the Frymaster RE80 is built with durability in mind. Constructed from high-quality materials, it can withstand the everyday rigors of a commercial kitchen. The unit’s components are designed for easy maintenance, with quick access to filters and oil drains that simplify routine cleaning tasks.

Environmental considerations also play a role in the Frymaster RE80’s design. The machine operates with energy-efficient technologies that reduce its overall carbon footprint, contributing to a more sustainable kitchen operation.

In conclusion, the Frymaster RE80 represents a blend of technology, safety, and efficiency in commercial frying equipment. With its oil management system, digital controls, capacity for high-volume frying, and durable design, it's an ideal choice for foodservice operators aiming to enhance their frying operations while maintaining food quality and operational efficiency.
