ADDING SOLID SHORTENING
If replacing shortening, place the block of shortening in the room with the fryer for 1 to 2 hours before
using. This will soften the shortening and make it easier to divide.
CAUTION: Failure to remove crumb screens prior to addition of fresh shortening may cause
heating elements to overheat, allowing shortening to reach flashpoint.
After draining shortening, allow the tank to cool down before adding all new shortening to avoid
scorching new shortening.
Shortening Capacity
Full Vat
50 lb., 85 lb. (22.7, 38.5 kg)
WARNING
: Do not set a complete block of solid shortening on top of an electric fryer's heating
elements. Doing this may damage the elements and increase the potential for shortening flash fire. If
solid shortening is to be used in an electric fryer, remove the baskets and crumb screen(s), raise
elements from tank, pack the bottom of the tank completely with solid shortening, lower the elements
and then pack the shortening COMPLETELY around over top of the elements. Lay crumb screen(s) in
the tank on top of the packed shortening. Follow the Fat Melt instructions in the installation & operation
manual. Once all shortening has been melted and the fryer has met the set temperature, fill baskets
and resume frying.
Single Vat
1. Remove crumb screens from fryer tank.
2. Lift elements out of each tank area.
3. Chop the solid block of shortening into pieces that can be packed into the bottom of fryer tank.
4. Pack bottom of the tank with shortening chunks.
5. Lower elements back into tank.
6. Pack the remaining chunks of shortening completely around and over top of the elements, then
place the screen on top of the shortening.
DAILY SHORTENING ADDITION (All Models)
Add approximately 15% new shortening daily. Keep level of shortening at fill level line in fry tank. Add
fresh shortening as needed.
HIGH LIMIT CONTROL
If the shortening becomes overheated, one of the temperature shutoff devices will shut the fryer off. DO
NOT turn fryer on until the shortening temperature is below 300°F (149°C).
If the high limit device has shut the fryer system off, push the red reset button on the back of the element
head(s) before turning the fryer back on.
If this situation persists, shut fryer down and contact a Vulcan-Hart authorized service agency.
