4.
Simmer the solution for 45 minutes to one hour. Do not allow the water level to drop below the
bottom oil-level line in the frypot during the boil-out operation.
DANGER
Never leave the fryer unattended during the boil-out process. If the boil-out solution
boils over, turn the fryer off immediately and let the solution cool for a few minutes
before resuming the process.
5.
Turn the fryer ON/OFF switch to the OFF position.
6.
Add two gallons of water. Drain out the solution and clean the frypot(s) thoroughly.
7.
Refill the frypot with clean water. Rinse the frypot twice, drain and dry with a clean towel.
Thoroughly remove all water from the frypot and elements before refilling the frypot with
cooking oil/shortening.
DANGER
Remove all drops of water from the frypot before filling with cooking oil or
shortening. Failure to do so will cause spattering of hot liquid when the oil or
shortening is heated to cooking temperature.
5.1.3 Clean Detachable Parts and Accessories – Weekly
Wipe all detachable parts and accessories with a clean, dry cloth. Use a clean cloth saturated with
detergent to remove accumulated carbonized oil/shortening on detachable parts and accessories.
Rinse the parts and accessories thoroughly with clean water and wipe dry before reinstalling.
5.2
Check Calibration of Temperature Control Knob – Monthly
1.
After the cooking oil/shortening reaches operating temperature, let the heating elements cycle at
least four times (indicated by the
HEAT
light going out and coming back on).
2.
Insert a thermometer or pyrometer probe near the temperature-sensing probe approximately three
inches deep into the cooking oil/shortening. When the heating elements cycle on for the fourth
time, the thermometer should read within
±
5
°
F of the temperature control knob setting.
3.
If the knob requires adjustment:
a.
Loosen the setscrew in the control knob until the outer shell of the knob will rotate on the
insert inside the knob.
b.
Rotate the outer shell of the knob until the index line on the knob aligns with the mark that
corresponds to the thermometer or pyrometer reading.
c.
Hold the knob and tighten the setscrew.
d.
Recheck the thermometer or pyrometer reading and the temperature control knob setting the
next time the
HEAT
light illuminates.
