3-3. FILLING OR
ADDING SHORTENING
The shortening level must always be above the heating
elements when the fryer is heating and at the frypot
level indicators on the rear of the frypot. Failure to
follow these instructions could result in a fire and/or
damage to the fryer.
When using solid shortening, it is recommended to melt
the shortening on an outside heating source before
placing it in the frypots. The heating elements or
burner tubes must be completely submerged in
shortening. Fire or damage to the frypot could
result.
1. It is recommended that a high quality frying shortening
be used in the open fryer. Some low grade shortenings
have a high moisture content and will cause foaming
and boiling over.
Wear gloves to avoid severe burns when pouring hot
shortening into frypot. Shortening and all metal
parts that are in contact with the shortening are
extremely hot, and take care to avoid splashing.
Figure 3-3
2. The gas open fryers require 90 lbs. (41 kg) of
shortening per frypot, and the electric 80 lbs. (36 kg)
per frypot. All frypots have 2 level indicator lines
inscribed on the rear wall of the frypot. The top
indicator shows the proper level of heated shortening;
the bottom indicator shows the proper level of cold
shortening. (See Figure 3-3)
So the faucet doesn’t interfere with operating, filtering
and cleaning procedures, swivel the faucet to either
frypot and push it into the area above the elements, as
shown in Figure 3-4 at left.

The Computron 1000 controls are available on both split
electronic controls frypot and full frypot fryers. The following is a
brief description of the operating procedures for fryers with these
controls.
1. Be sure the drain valve is in the closed position.
2. Place basket support inside of frypot.
3. Make sure frypot is filled with shortening to the proper
level.
4. Display shows “OFF” until power switch is turned to the ON
position. Display now shows the cook time and the unit
automatically goes into the Melt Cycle until the
shortening temperature reaches 230°F (110°C). The
control then automatically exits the Melt Cycle.
The OFG-320 series open fryer has several safety devices
which shuts-down the gas supply when they are activated.
The above procedures should be followed to restart the open
fryer and if the shut down is repeated, a qualified technician
should be notified.
The Melt Cycle may be bypassed, if desired, by pressing
and holding for 3 seconds.
Do not bypass the Melt Cycle unless enough shortening
on gas fryers and elements on electric fryers. If Melt
Cycle is bypassed before all burner tubes or elements
are covered, excessive smoking of the shortening, or a
fire will result.
5. Once out of the Melt Cycle, the shortening is heated
until lights and the cook time is displayed.
Thoroughly stir shortening to stabilize the temperature
throughout the frypots.
6. Before loading product into the baskets, lower baskets
into the hot shortening to keep the product from
sticking to the baskets.
7. Once the shortening temperature has stabilized at the
setpoint temperature, lower the basket with product into
thefrypot.

AND PROCEDURES

Do not overload, or place product with extreme
moisture content into the basket. 18 lbs. (8.2 kgs.) is
the maximum amount of product per frypot.
Failure to follow these directions can result in
shortening overflowing the frypot. Serious burns or
damage to the frypot could result.
9. If the right basket was dropped into the shortening, then
press the right .
If the left basket was dropped, then press the left .
10. The timer on the appropriate side (right or left) starts
counting down.
The timing operation of the two sides of the control
is entirely independent of each other. One may be set,
started, or stopped without affecting the other.
11. At the end of the Cook Cycle a tone will sound and the
display flashes “DONE”. Press button and lift the
basket from the shortening.
Timer Programming
1.Anytime the cook time is displayed, press
under the appropriate display to change the cook time.
Set-Point Temperature Programming
1.Press once to view the actual shortening
temperature and press again to view the set-point
temperatue.
2. While the set-point temperature is in the display, press
to change the set-point temperature.
If “LOCK” shows in display when pressing ,
the controls are locked and must be unlocked before
changing the time or set-point temperature. See C1000
Special Programming Section.

3-7. BASIC OPERATIONS The Henny Penny open fryers are available with 12 product
AND PROCEDURES- button controls. Also, models OEA/OGA are available with
(12 Button Controls/Autolift) 12 button controls with auto-lift features. The auto-lift
controls automatically lowers the basket(s) into the short-
ening, at the beginning of the Cook Cycle, and raises
the basket(s) at the end of the cycle.
1. Be sure the drain valve is in the closed position.
2. Place basket support inside frypot.
3. Fill the frypot with shortening.
4. Move power switch to the ON position. Unit
automatically goes into the Melt Cycle. When the
temperature reaches 230°F (110°C) the control enters
the Heat Cycle, and heats the shortening until the
temperature setting is reached.
The gas open fryer has several safety devices which
shuts down the gas supply when they are activated.
Follow above procedures to restart the fryer, and if
the shut down is repeated, notify a qualified technician.
Only on gas units can the Melt Cycle be bypassed, if
desired, by pressing a product button and holding it for
five seconds. The display shows “EXIT MELT?
1=YES 2=NO”. Press to exit melt.
Do not bypass the Melt Cycle unless enough short-
ening has melted to completely cover all of the heat
tubes. If the Melt Cycle is bypassed before all heat
tubes are covered, excessive smoking of shortening, or
a fire will result.
5. Once out of the Melt Cycle, flashes until the set-
point temperature is reached. Then I illuminates.
