Initial Test and Adjustment
1. Open the gas supply valve.
2. Place the DRAIN handle in the CLOSED position.
3. Fill pot with shortening to the fill mark.
Risk of fire exists if the oil level drops below the minimum oil level. The level of oil
within the pot must not fall below 5mm of the maximum oil level.
Use of oil/shortening older than the manufacturer’s recommendations for life of
the oil is prone to surge boiling and flash fires. Follow the oil manufacturer’s
guidelines for lifecycle of oil/shortening.
Overfilling the fryer pot with shortening could lead to serious injury. Ensure that
the fryer pot is filled with shortening only to the fill mark when shortening is hot.
Do not use any shortening other than what is specified in this manual and do not
overfill the fryer pot.
The fryer has a maximum temperature setting of 375º F/190º C (for BLG and
BLG-F) or 390º F/200º C (for BLG-FC). Do not use oil/shortening with a
flashpoint less than 554º F (290º C)
Use only high-quality shortening that has low moisture content, a high smoke
point and no additives.
4. Place the gas control
ON/OFF
