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. To lessen the chance of boil over, turn the
fryer’s gas valve knob to the PILOT position occasionally.
•
After the solution has simmered for one hour, turn the gas valve knob to the
PILOT
position and
allow the solution to cool.
•
Add one gallon (3.8 liters) of cold water and stir. Drain the solution into a suitable container and
clean the frypot thoroughly.
WARNING
Do not drain boil-out solution into a shortening disposal unit or portable filter
unit. These units are not intended for this purpose, and will be damaged by the solution.
•
Rinse the frypot at least twice by filling the frypot with clean water and draining. Dry the frypot
thoroughly with a clean, dry towel.
DANGER
Remove all drops of water from the frypot before filling with cooking oil or shortening.
Failure to do so may cause spattering of hot liquid when the oil or shortening is heated
to cooking temperature.
3.3 Filling with Cooking Oil or Shortening
•
Ensure the fryer’s gas valve is off or in the pilot position.
•
Close the frypot drain valve; remove the basket support rack if required.
•
Fill the frypot to the lower oil-level line.
When solid shortening is used, it must be thoroughly
packed down into the frypot’s cold zone.
•
To melt solid shortening without scorching, the gas valve knob should be turned to the
ON
position for about three seconds and then to the
PILOT position
for about 10 seconds repeatedly
until the shortening is completely melted. If any smoke is seen during this process, the oil is
heating too quickly and scorching. This melting process is not necessary with liquid shortening.
3.4 Shutting the Fryer Down
For short-term shut down during the workday, rotate the gas valve knob clockwise to the
PILOT
position.
When shutting the fryers down at closing time, rotate the gas valve knob to the
PILOT
position (see
Figure 1 on Page 3-1). Depress the gas valve knob and rotate slightly clockwise. Release and continue
rotating clockwise to the
OFF
position.
