This section explains how to check and adjust the
thermostat on a Donut Robot
®
fryer. Do this if
the temperature on the Temperature Control dial
does not match the temperature reading taken by
a reliable thermometer or temperature probe.
Adjusting the Thermostat
(“Temperature Control”)
1.
This procedure requires about 15 minutes
if the fryer is hot. Do not perform this test
while making donuts.
2.
Have a reliable thermometer or
temperature probe ready that reads up to
400°F ( or 200°C).
3.
If the shortening is liquid, turn on the
fryer conveyor. This will circulate the
heat evenly around the fryer.
4.
Set the Temperature Control dial to
375°F (190°C). Allow the fryer to reach
operating temperature. When the fryer
reaches this point, the red light above the
Temperature Control should go OFF.
5.
Turn off the fryer conveyor.
6.
Use thick heat resistant gloves as a
precaution when performing the next
step. The shortening is HOT. NEVER put
your hand, fingers or other body parts
under the shortening.
WARNING
NEVER touch shortening when it is hot,
even with gloves on. It can cause serious
burns. Avoid touching the surrounding
metal parts. They are HOT.
7.
CAREFULLY insert the tip of your
thermometer or temperature probe
approximately 1” (25mm) below the
surface, close to the middle of the fryer.
DO NOT touch the shortening with your
hand or fingers, even with gloves on.
8.
Wait for the light above the Temperature
Control to change from OFF to ON. Now
check the temperature on your
thermometer or probe. If the Thermostat
is working properly, this temperature will
show 370° to 375°F (188° to 190°C).
9.
If not, an adjustment is needed as
follows.
10.
Turn off the power to the Donut Robot
®
by disconnecting the plug, OR by turning
the breaker switch at the back of the fryer
to the OFF position.
WARNING
To avoid the possibility of electric shock,
disconnect or turn off the power source
before adjusting the thermostat.
11.
Carefully lift up the Temperature Control
dial with your fingers or other implement,
until it comes off.
