The proper location of the fryer is very important for operation,
speed, and convenience. The location of the open fryer should
allow clearances for servicing and proper operation. Choose a
location which will provide easy loading and unloading with-
outinterferingwiththenalassemblyoffoodorders.Opera-
torshavefoundthatfryingfromrawtonish,andholdingthe
product in warmers provides fast continuous service. Keep
in mind, the best efciencywillbeobtainedbyastraightline
operation,i.e.rawinonesideandnishedouttheotherside.
Order assembly can be moved away with only a slight loss of
efciency.
Toavoidreandruinedsupplies,theareaunderthe
fryer should not be used to store supplies.
To prevent severe burns from splashing hot oil,
position and install fryer to prevent tipping or
movement. Restraining ties may be used for
stabilization.
For proper operation, the open fryer should be level from
side-to-sideandfronttoback.Usingalevelplacedontheat
areasaroundthevatcollar,onthemiddlewell,andthenadjust
the casters until the unit is level.

The fryer should be located with provision for venting into
an adequate exhaust hood or ventilation system. This is es-
sentialtopermitefcientremovalofthesteamexhaustand
frying odors. Special precaution must be taken in designing an
exhaust canopy to avoid interference with the operation of the
fryer. We recommend you consult a local ventilation or heating
company to help in designing an adequate system.
Ventilation must conform to local, state, and national codes.
Consultyourlocalredepartmentorbuildingauthorities.
Check the data plate, mounted on the inside of the doors, to
determine the correct power supply.
To avoid electrical shock, do not disconnect the ground
(earth) plug. This fryer must be adequately and safely
grounded (earthed). Refer to local electrical codes for cor-
rect grounding (earthing) procedures or in absence of local
codes, with The National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No.
70-(the current edition). In Canada, all electrical connec-
tions are to be made in accordance with CSA C22.2, Cana-
dian Electrical Code Part 1, and/or local codes.
To avoid electrical shock, this appliance must be equipped
with an external circuit breaker which will disconnect all
ungrounded (unearthed) conductors. The main power
switch on this appliance does not disconnect all line
conductors.
(FOR EQUIPMENT WITH CE MARK ONLY!)
To prevent electric shock hazard, this appliance must be
bonded to other appliances or touchable metal surfaces
in close proximity to this appliance with an equipotential
bonding conductor. This appliance is equipped with an
equipotential lug for this purpose. The equipotential lug is
marked with the following symbol.

An all pole, separate disconnect switch, with proper capacity
fuses or breakers must be installed at a convenient location
between the fryer and the power source, and must be installed
according to national and local codes. It should be an insulated
copper conductor rated for 600 volts and 90° C. For runs
longer than 50 feet (15.24 m), use the next larger wire size. CE
units require a minimum wire size of 6 mm to be wired to the
terminal block.
It is recommended that a 30 mA rated protective device such
as a residual current circuit breaker (RCCB), or ground fault
circuit interrupter (GFCI), be used on the fryer circuit.
Permanently connected electric fryers with casters must be
installedwithexibleconduitandacablerestraint,whenin-
stalled in the United States. See illustration at left. Holes are
available in the rear fryer frame for securing the cable restraint
to the fryer. The cable restraint does not prevent the fryer from
tipping.
Each vat has it’s own power cord assembly, and uses the choic-
es of plugs below, depending upon voltage option and location
of fryer.
Thesupplypowercordsshallbeoil-resistant,sheathedexible
cable, no lighter than ordinary polychloroprene or other equiva-
lent synthetic elastomer-sheathed cord.

3-3. FILLING OR
ADDING OIL
The oil level must always be above the burner tubes when
the fryer is heating and at the oil level indicators on the
rear of the vat. Failure to follow these instructions
couldresultinareand/ordamagetothefryer.
Solid oil is not recommended. Solid oil could cause
clogging and pump failures.
1. It is recommended that a high quality frying oil be used in the
open fryer. Some low grade oils have a high moisture content
and causes foaming and boiling over.
Wear gloves to avoid severe burns when pouring hot oil
into vat. Oil and all metal parts that are in contact with
the oil are extremely hot, and take care to avoid
splashing.
2. Oil Capacities:
Full-size vats = 15 quarts/30 lbs (14.2 liters/13.6 kg)
All vats have 2 level indicator lines inscribed on the rear wall of
the vat, in which, the upper-most line shows the oil at the
proper level when heated. Figure 1.
3. Placebasketsupportinsideofvatandllvatwithcoldoiltothe
lower indicator. Figure 2.

1. Makesurebasketsupportisinvatandvatislledwithoilto
the proper level.
2. Move power switch to the ON position and then press
to turn on heat for the desired vat. If display shows “IS POT
FILLED?” make sure oil is at the proper level (see Section
3-2) and then press
ü button for “YES”.
Unit automatically goes into the Melt Cycle until the oil
temperature reaches 180°F (82°C) and then control
automatically exits the Melt Cycle.
The Melt Cycle may be bypassed, if desired, by pressing
ü
button or Xbutton and holding it for 5 seconds.
The control then shows “EXIT MELT” and “YES NO”.
Press ü button for “YES” and vat heats continuously until the
set-point temperature is reached.
Do not leave fryer unattended and do not bypass the Melt
Cycle unless enough oil has melted to completely cover all
of the elements. If the Melt Cycle is bypassed before
the elements are covered, excessive smoking of oil, or a
rewillresult.
DO NOT OVERLOAD, OR PLACE PRODUCT WITH
EXTREME MOISTURE CONTENT INTO THE
BASKETS. 3 LBS. (1.4 KG.) IS THE MAXIMUM
AMOUNT OF PRODUCT PER FULL VAT. FAILURE
TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAN RESULT IN
OIL OVERFLOWING THE VAT WHICH COULD
CAUSE SERIOUS BURNS, PERSONAL INJURY, FIRE
AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
IF THE SHORTENING TEMPERATURE EXCEEDS
420°F (216°C), IMMEDIATELY SHUT OFF THE
POWER AT THE MAIN CIRCUIT BREAKER AND
HAVE THE FRYER REPAIRED. IF OIL TEMPERA-
TURE EXCEEDS ITS FLASHPOINT, FIRE WILL
OCCUR, RESULTING IN SEVERE BURNS AND/OR
PROPERTY DAMAGE.
