Light main burners and manually cycle burners On/Off until shortening has liquefied.
Ideally main burners should be cycled On for 5 seconds and Off for 10 seconds. Repeat
cycle until all shortening is melted. Following this procedure should allow shortening to
liquefy gradually without scorching. Once shortening has liquefied, it can be brought up to
operating temperature.
To speed up this process, break up shortening and stir carefully during melting process. Add
more shortening until tank is filled to the level marked on the tank side. Refer to Fig 5 above.
NOTE: Running burners continuously will cause shortening in contact with tank to overheat,
resulting in premature oil breakdown. Never allow shortening to smoke while melting
as this indicates that temperature is too high. If shortening starts smoking, increase
main burner 'Off' intervals.
1.
Turn ‘ON’ fryer main power switch, located on the lower control panel. Main power switch will
illuminate (Red) and green (Power On) neon on right hand side of upper control panel will illuminate.
2.
Check the 2 (Red) lock out indicator Led's on left hand side of control panel are not illuminated. If
any of the lock out indicators are illuminated, press left or right hand burner reset switches on either
side of the main power switch, to reset the control system for that side burner.
3.
Set thermostat knob to required frying temperature.
4.
The ‘Orange’ heating indictor on the RH Side of the top control panel will illuminate when burners
are On and will go out when oil is at pre-set temperature.
5.
If left or right ‘Red ‘Lock Out’ indicators illuminate, press left or right burner reset switches on either
side of the main power switch, to reset control system for that burner.
1.
The temperature used for frying food is the most important aspect of fryer operation. Incorrect
temperatures will result in poor product quality and will reduce life of oil / shortening.
2.
Temperature can be set from 95°C to 195°C, we do not recommend food be cooked above 190°C.
3.
Main burners will operate automatically to maintain this temperature.
4.
As a safety precaution all Waldorf 'Vee-Ray' fryers feature an Over-Heat control which will turn Off
the fryer in the event that the oil reaches over 220°C, should there be a thermostat failure.
5.
If a fault occurs or the fryer is not functioning correctly, contact your local service agent.
1.
Turn 'OFF' main power switch on fryer front control panel, red indicator on the ‘ON’ - ‘OFF’ main
power switch and green neon on right of upper control panel will go out. Close main access door.
2.
Check that the two ‘Red’ neon Lockout indicators located on the front control panel are extinguished.
3.
The thermostat control knob can be left at the normal operating temperature for future use.
IMPORTANT:
Should any abnormal operation like;
- ignition problems,
- abnormal burner flame,
- burner control problems,
- partial or full loss of burner flame in normal operation,
If any of the above problems are noticed, the appliance requires IMMEDIATE service by a qualified
service person and should not be used until a service is carried out.
