SECTION 1 - GENERAL INTRODUCTION
The E1808 and E1838 are single well freestanding
fryers.
The E1848 model is a double well fryer.
The E1808 model accommodates one chip basket,
supported in use on a removable base plate.
The E1838 model accommodates two chip baskets,
supported in use on a removable base plate.
The E1848 model has two pans identical to E1808.
All models are provided with basket support rails and
dust covers which should be used to cover the well
apertures when unit is not in use. The oil temperature
is automatically controlled by an electronic thermostat
with a back-up high temperature limit device provided
to ensure the oil cannot overheat and reach a
dangerous temperature level.
A drain valve is provided on all pans.
SECTION 2 - CONTROLS and OPERATION
Controls
A thermostat, two indicator lamps and an on/off
switch are mounted on the front panel. The E1848
Double Pan has two sets (one for each pan).
The MAINS neon (RED) will illuminate when the
external isolatingswitch is ON. This indicates that
power is available to the unit.
The THERMOSTAT neon (AMBER) illuminates only
when the elements are beingsupplied with current. It
will extinguish when the frying medium has reached
the selected fryingtemperature.
The ON/OFF switch controls power to the controls.
The drain valve is located behind the front door.
To facilitate drainingof oil into a suitable receptacle,
a removable drain pipe is supplied (clipped to fryer
base panel when not in use).
OPERATION
Switching the Appliance ON
a) Ensure well contains oil or equivalent.
b) Press control switch to ON.
c) Turn thermostat to chosen temperature.
To Shut the Fryer OFF
Press control switch to OFF.
Thermostat
Provides automatic control of oil temperature up to a
maximum of 190
o
C.
High Temperature Limit Device
This device is pre-set to shut off the power supply to
the elements should the oil temperature ever rise to
230
o
C. If this situation occurs it will be necessary to
carry out an investigation and rectify the reason for
over heatingof the oil. A button, located below the
control chamber base panel, is provided for re-setting
the limit device.
Pre-Heat Time
Allow approximately15 minutes for the to heat to
operatingtemperature from cold.
Choice Of Frying Medium
Select a top quality oil to obtain an optimum result
from the appliance. Semi-liquid oils or fryingfats can
be used should the need arise. Fats are solid at room
temperature and must be heated up carefully (see the
section on charging the pan). Fat has a lower smoke
point than oil.
A good quality oil will give good stability and allows a
longer period of use without smoking or foaming.
It will also give better flavour to food. Top quality oils
also have a higher flash point and can reduce
gumming around the unit.
Charging Of The Pan
Ensure drain valve is closed and fill with oil to level
mark on element guard and side walls of well.
Approximate capacity is 39 litres for E1838 and
19 litres per pan on E1808 and E1848 models.
If solid fat is beingused, remove chip basket support
plate from well and cut fat into small pieces. Slowly
melt fat with thermostat at low settingand add pieces
gradually until correct level has been achieved.
Fat must always be loaded in this way to prevent
overheatingand burning.
When all fat has melted to a liquid state, select
required temperature and replace basket support
plate before use.
