6. DRAINING & FILTERING INSTRUCTION
A. DRAINING
WARNING
Draining and filtering of shortening must be accomplished with care to avoid the
possibility of a serious burn caused from careless handling.
WARNING
The burner
MUST NOT
be turned on when the fry pot is empty. A few minutes of
burner operation with an empty fry pot will destroy the fry pot and void the warranty.
1.
USE PROTECTIVE CLOTHING GLOVES ETC WHEN HANDLING HOT
LIQUIDS.
2. Position a metal container with sealable cover under the drainpipe. The metal
container must be of sufficient design to withstand the hot shortening and
must be able to hold hot liquids holder and filter cone used when a filter
machine is not available. If you are using the filter cone holder and cone, be
sure that the cone holder rests securely on the metal container.
3. Open the drain slowly to avoid splattering. If splattering occurs, exercise
extreme caution.
3. If the drain valve becomes clogged with food particles, you may wish to use
the Poker like tool. This tool must be used from INSIDE the fry pot ONLY.
Do not
hammer on the drain valve, as damage to the ball inside will cause it
to leak.
DO NOT
insert into front of drain valve in an attempt to unclog the
valve; hot shortening will rush out creating the potential for injury.
5.The drained shortening should be allowed to cool to (38ºC) or lower before
transporting the container and removing drain pipe. Shortening temperature
of
(60ºC) or higher will result in severe burns.
6. After draining the shortening, clean all food particles and residual shortening
from the fry pot before refilling.
7. Close the drain valve and refill the fry pot with clean, filtered shortening.
WARNING
IF GAS ODOURS ARE DETECTED, THE FRYER GAS SUPPLY MUST BE SHUT
OFF AT THE MAIN SHUT-OFF VALVE AND THE LOCAL GAS COMPANY OR
AUTHORIZED SERVICE AGENCY CONTACTED FOR SERVICE.
