Operation
Filling the Tank(s)
NOTE: WALDORF 'FAST-FRI' fryers can be used with both oil and shortening.
1.
Before filling the tank, always check that the drain valve(s) behind the access door is (are) closed.
A locking slide is provided on these valves, this should always be locked in position during use.
OIL
- Carefully fill the fryer tank(s) with oil to the lower ‘FILL LEVEL’ mark shown at the rear of the tank.
Set the thermostat to the required operating temperature, the oil will expand as heated and will
reach the upper level marked when the oil is hot (180 - 190°C).
FN8120G fryer will hold 20 litres of oil.
FN8226G fryer will hold 13 litres of oil per tank.
FN8130G fryer will hold 31 litres of oil.
SHORTENING
- Ideally shortening should be pre-melted prior to putting it into the tank. This is normally
done in a suitable vessel on a boiling table burner(s). The liquefied shortening can then be poured
into the tank until it reaches the 'FILL LEVEL' mark.
FN8120G fryer will hold 37 lbs shortening.
FN8226G fryer will hold 24 lbs shortening per tank.
FN8130G fryer will hold 46.5 lbs shortening.
Pre-Heating
NOTE: When pre-melting shortening, only heat the shortening until it is just liquefied. Do not bring
the shortening up to high temperature as handling of hot shortening is dangerous.
If pre-melting of shortening is not possible, carefully cut the shortening in to small pieces and
pack into the tank.
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 the cycle until
all the shortening is melted. Following this procedure should allow shortening to liquefy
gradually without scorching. Once shortening has liquefied, it can be brought up to fryer
operating temperature.
To speed up this process, break up the shortening and stir carefully during the melting process.
Add more shortening until the 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 the tank to overheat,
resulting in premature oil breakdown. Never allow shortening to smoke while melting as
this indicates that the temperature is too high. If shortening starts smoking, increase main
burner 'Off' intervals.
