Preface The 718LCG, 724CG, and 734CG Gas Fryers are designed to fry cake and yeast-raised donut products. Each must be bolted to a flat, dry floor. The operator should stand opposite the flue stack. The operator must work safely at all times and read this manual and follow its instructions and warnings. A thorough understanding of how to install, maintain, and safely operate the fryer will prevent production delays and injuries. get spilled on the floor, mop it up immediately.
1 Operation Taking Safety Precautions 3. In a prominent location, post information about what to do if there is a gas leak. Make sure that all employees know what to do. Put shortening in the kettle using one of these methods: WARNING * If you have a Belshaw Shortening Melter (FM) attached to the fryer, use the FM to melt shortening and transfer it to the kettle. See the FM manual.
7. The yellow pilot light near the on/off switch and the red pilot light on the fryer cabinet will both light up. * Use a Belshaw Shortening Melter (FM) to melt shortening and transfer it to the kettle. See the FM manual. Push the button on the digital controller, “SP1” will light up. This is the set point. Push the up and down arrows to adjust the convection heat set point. See Figure 4-4. Push “R” button to return to operational mode.
11. Continue supplying shortening to the kettle as required. Keep the kettle filled up to the “Oil Level” marks on the side. 12. When you are done frying donuts, move the on/off switch to the OFF position. Belshaw Bros., Inc. • www.belshaw.
2 Cleaning For your safety, observe the following warnings throughout the entire cleaning process. WARNING 1. Disconnect the machine from the power source. 2. Let the shortening cool to 100°F/38°C. 3. Place a Belshaw Shortening Filter or a large metal container under the drain valve of the fryer. Thoroughly clean and dry the floor if shortening, water, or other materials are spilled. Materials spilled on the floor can cause serious injury or loss of life.
WARNING WARNING Thoroughly clean and dry the floor if shortening is spilled. Shortening on the floor can cause serious injury or loss of life. To avoid being burned, be very careful as you work with hot cleaning solution. Never put your hands in the solution. Wear gloves and long sleeves in case any solution splashes. 6. Using a non-abrasive, non-metallic spatula, scrape the sediment and any remaining shortening into the drain valve. 4.
under the drain valve, and open the drain valve again. WARNING Thoroughly clean and dry the floor if cleaning solution is spilled. Liquid on the floor can cause serious injury or loss of life. Rinsing 1. Pour clean water into the kettle, up to the normal level of the shortening. If the cleaner you have used requires that you add a neutralizer, do so now. WARNING Do not allow the water to overflow the containers. Water will get on the floor, and if the water is not cool enough, you may be burned. 7.
3 Donut-Making Helps If the shortening is too cold, the donuts will spread too rapidly, will form large rings, will tend to crack open, will be too light in appearance, and will absorb too much shortening. Tips on Making Quality Cake Donuts • Use the correct batter temperature. In general, the correct batter temperature is 75°-80°F/24°-27°C. Check the mix manufacturer’s instructions, as the recommended temperature range may vary.
Calculating Correct Water Temperature The following is an example of how to calculate the correct water temperature to use. You must use your own room temperature, dry mix temperature, desired batter temperature, and, if you are making yeast-raised donuts, estimated temperature increase during mixing. Cake Donuts Yeast-Raised Donuts °F 72 +70 142 °C 22.2 +21.1 43.3 °F 72 +70 142 °C 22.2 +21.1 43.3 Total B 75 x3 225 23.9 x3 71.7 80 x3 240 26.7 x3 80.1 Total B -Total A Desired water temp.

1 Installation In a prominent location, post instructions to be followed in the event the user smells gas. Obtain this information by consulting your local gas supplier. FOR YOUR SAFETY Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors or liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance. WARNING Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service or maintenance can cause property damage, injury or death.
b. Fasten the flue stack to the flue base using the two pan-head sheet metal screws provided. Unpacking the Fryer 1. Use a fork lift to transport the shipping crate to the work station. 2. Break down the shipping crate. 3. Remove all the packing materials from the fryer. These include foam, tape, brown paper, plastic, and white protective coating. 4. flue stack Position the fryer to allow sufficient space on either end of the machine for any equipment you plan to use with it.

Bolt the fryer to the floor. The foot of each leg has two holes in it for this purpose. WARNING heat shield To avoid serious burns, other injury, or death, make sure the fryer is securely fastened to the floor so it will not tip or fall over. hex-head sheet metal screws 6.
e. Check all gas connections and fittings for leaks using a gas leak detector, a soap solution, or a similar substance. When such a substance is applied to connections and fittings, bubbles indicate gas leaks. WARNING Do not touch hot shortening. It can cause serious burns. 4. WARNING To avoid a fire or an explosion which would cause serious burns or death, never use an open flame to check connections for gas leaks. 8. 9.
Assembling the Frying Screen Handles (Be aware that you may be using detachable handles rather than fixed handles, particularly when making raised donuts using screens which are placed inside a proofer. In this case, your handles should NOT be attached to screens.) Frying Screens come with handles and hardware unassembled. When assembled the location of the handles should be as follows: For Model 618L and 718L Fryers, center the handles along the long sides of the screen.

4 Pilot Module This section contains supplemental information about the Honeywell S8600 Intermittent Pilot Module. The Belshaw 718LCG, 724CG, and 734CG gas fryers all use this module. Fryers using natural gas use the S8600F-1000. Fryers using propane use the S8600H-1014. Belshaw provides this appendix as a courtesy to our customers. We deny any liability for the use of the information contained herein. All of the procedures explained below should be performed by qualified technicians.
module will not energize the second main valve, and the main burner will not light. The S8600F, which is used on natural gas fryers, will continue to spark as long as the fryer’s thermostat calls for heat or until the pilot lights. The S8600H, which is used on propane fryers, provides 100 percent shutoff and safety lockout. Its ignition sparks only for a pre-set length of time (15 or 90 seconds, as stamped on the module).
START Thermostat calls for heat. TRIAL FOR IGNITION First main valve opens. Gas flows to pilot burner. Igniter-sensor sparks. Pilot burner lights. Module sense s flame current. Pilot burne r does not light, or mod ule d oes not sense flame current. Module S8600H MAIN BURNER OPERATION Module S8600 F System locks out. Ignition spa rk continu es. Operator tu rns thermostat below 200°F/93°C, moves on/off switch to OFF, and waits at least one minute.
models must be reset by setting the thermostat below 200°F/93°C for at least one minute before continuing. On retry models, wait for retry or reset at the thermostat. Step 5: Check Normal Operation 1. Set the fryer’s thermostat above 200°F/93°C. 2. Watch to see whether the pilot lights smoothly when the gas reaches the pilot burner. * If any component does not function properly, make sure it is correctly installed and wired before replacing it. 3.
1. Check for good metal-to-metal contact between the pilot burner bracket and the main burner. 2. Check the ground lead from the GND (BURNER) terminal on the module to the pilot burner. Make sure the connections are clean and tight. If the wire is damaged or deteriorated, replace it with #14-18 gauge, moisture-resistant, thermoplastic-insulated wire with a 221°F/105°C minimum rating. 3.
e. At the gas control, disconnect the main valve wire from the TH or MV terminal. f. Connect the fryer to the power source and move the on/off switch to the ON position. Appearance Cause small blue flame lack of gas due to clogged orifice filter lack of gas due to clogged pilot filter g. Turn on the power and set thermostat above 200°F/93°C to call for heat. The pilot should light, but the main burner will remain off because the main valve actuator is disconnected. h. Check the pilot flame.
