Hot shortening must always be at the upper level indicator line (Figure 3-4). Failure to follow these instructions could result in a fire and/or damage to the fryer.

When using solid shortening, it is recommended to melt

the shortening on an outside heating source before placing it in the frypots. The elements on electric fryers must be completely submerged when power is turned on. Fire or damage to the frypot could result.

1.Henny Penny recommends using a high quality frying peanut oil in the pressure fryer. Some low grade peanut oils have a high mois- ture content which causes foaming and boiling over.

To avoid severe burns when pouring hot shortening into frypot, wear gloves and take care to avoid splashing.

2.The electric model requires 48 lbs (21.8 Kgs) of peanut oil. The frypot has 2 level indicator lines inscribed on the rear wall of the frypot, and the heated peanut oil is at the proper level when it’s at the upper indicator line. Figure 3-4.

3.Cold peanut oil should be filled to 1/4 to 1/2 inch below the upper indicator line on electric units. The peanut oil expands when heated and should be even with the upper indicator line when the peanut oil is at cooking temperature.
