4.1.3
STAINLESS STEEL PARTS
Do not use steel wool, abrasive cloths, cleansers or powders to clean stainless steel surfaces.
All stainless steel parts should be wiped regularly with hot soapy water during the day and a
stainless steel liquid cleaner at the end of the day. To remove encrusted materials, soak in hot
water to loosen the material, and then use a wood or nylon scraper. NOT USE a metal knife,
spatula, or any other metal tool to scrape stainless steel. Scratches are almost impossible to
remove.
WARNING: All water must be removed before adding oil or shortening.
Not doing so can result in splattering of hot oil.
Contact the factory, factory representative or a local service company to perform all Maintenance and
Service Repairs.
