SECTION 3. OPERATION
POWER/PUMP Switch A three way switch with center OFF position; move the switch to the position marked POWER to operate the fryer; move the switch to the position marked PUMP to operate the filter pump; certain conditions must be met prior to operation of the filter pump; these conditions are covered later in this section
Frypot | This reservoir holds the cooking shortening, and is designed to |
| accommodate the heating elements, 8 head of product and an |
| adequate cold zone for collection of cracklings |
Carrier | This stainless steel carrier consists of five racks, containing the food |
| product during and after frying (4 cook racks and 1 cover rack) |
Lid Gasket | Provides the pressure seal for the frypot chamber |
Deadweight assembly | The deadweight style operating pressure relief valve is used to |
| maintain a constant level of steam pressure within the frypot; |
| any excess steam pressure is vented through the exhaust stack; |
| remove the deadweight cap, and clean the cap, weight, and |
| deadweight orifice once a day. See Preventive Maintenance |
| Section. |
| Failure to clean the deadweight assembly daily could |
| result in the fryer building too much pressure. Severe |
| injuries and burns could result. |
Safety Relief Valve | AnASME approved spring loaded valve set at 14.5 psi |
| (999 mbar); in the event the operation valve becomes obstructed, |
| this safety valve releases excess pressure, keeping the frypot |
| chamber at 14.5 psi (999 mbar); if this occurs, turn the COOK/ |
| PUMP switch to the OFF position to release all pressure from the |
| frypot |
If safety relief valve activates, turn main power switch to the OFF position. To avoid serious burns and injuries, have fryer serviced before next use.
