1912 Midland Metal Spinners was founded by
George Cadman, who was then 65 years old, as
a metal holloware manufacturing company, in St.
Mark’s Street, Wolverhampton. They later moved
into the Tower and Fort Works in Pelham Street,
which ultimately gave rise to the famous Tower
brand name.
1937 Tower exhibited some of their latest holloware
designs at the British Industries Fair. As you can
see from the original poster, their stand No. A410
must have been a great sight as it promoted their
“Beautiful, inexpensive, untarnishable Plate, at
prices all can afford to pay”.
1961 Tower became one of the largest
manufacturers of aluminium holloware, electric
kettles, tea pots and other household articles with
over 1,000 employees.
1974 Russell Hobbs took ownership of the
expanding Tower brand.
A Healthy Alternative
Want to cook healthily using less oil? Tower’s
handy Air Fryer uses revolutionary air blast
technology requiring little or no oil to fry, roast, grill
or bake. A digital timer helps you to stay in control.
Air frying allows you to enjoy the taste of deep fried
food, but at only 10% fat, it really is the healthiest
alternative. All you need to do is lightly coat the
food in oil and the hot air will fry it for you. Air frying
uses hot circulating air to cook food that’s crispy
on the outside and moist inside at higher speeds.

8TROUBLESHOOTING&FAQ’S
Questions Answers
How long should I
leave the Air Fryer to
cool before storing it?
We recommend leaving the Air Fryer for 30-45 minutes to cool before
storing.
My homemade
fries are not crispy
enough.
Ensure that the fries are completely dry before adding oil to them and
putting them in the Air Fryer.
Try cutting the potatoes into thinner, smaller fries and adding slightly more
oil for a crispier result.
My food has not
cooked uniformly.
The food may not be cut uniformly. Make sure everything is cut to the same
shape and size for good, even cooking.
How much cooking
oil do I need to use?
Frozen part fried foods require no added oils.
You only need to add ½ - 1 tbsp. of oil for other foods.
What is the capacity
of the Air Fryer? The Air Fryer is 8 litres in capacity.
White smoke is
coming out of the Air
Fryer.
This is normal if you are preparing greasy ingredients, because a large
amount of oil leaks into the pan. This does not affect the appliance or the
end result.
