Boil out the frypot(s) in accordance with the Boilout procedure in Section 2.3. 2.
fryers without the built-in boil out option, the power switch is on the front panel. For those with the option, the switches are located inside the door. When this switch is in the POWER position, this indicator will be lit whenever the heating elements are engergized. If this light does not remain lit when switch is released, the drain valve is open. NOTE: The Fryer Reset switch and Boil Out switch are not present in all configurations. 3.
6. Press the fryer POWER switch to the OFF position. If the unit is equipped with a boilout switch, press that switch to the OFF position. 7. Add two gallons of cold water. Drain the solution into a suitable container (not the filter pan) and clean any remaining stubborn spots with a brush or scouring pad. WARNING Do not drain water or boilout solution into the filter pan or filter system.
FLATBOTTOM SERIES ELECTRIC FRYERS CHAPTER 3: OPERATION AND ROUTINE MAINTENANCE 3.1 Start-up NOTE: If this is the first time the unit is being operated after installation, perform the boil-out procedure found in Section 2.3 of Chapter 2 before proceeding. 1. Fill the frypot with cooking oil up to the lower OIL LEVEL line on the rear of the frypot. If using solid shortening, the shortening must be melted first, then poured into the frypot. 2.
3.2 General Use of the Fryer 1. For consistent product quality and long-term savings, use a high-quality cooking oil or shortening. 2. When satisfied that the cooking oil/shortening is at the proper cooking temperature, carefully lower a basket of product into the frypot. At the end of the recommended cooking time for the product, lift the basket from the frypot and allow excess oil/shortening to drain back into the frypot before transferring the product to a holding station or the serving line.
3.4 Draining and Manual Filtering of Fryers without Built-In Filtration NOTE: For fryers with built-in filtration, refer to Chapter 4. DANGER Allow oil/shortening to cool to 100ºF (38ºC) or lower before draining into an appropriate container for disposal. For safe, convenient draining and disposal of used cooking oil or shortening, DEAN recommends using the Frymaster Shortening Disposal Unit (SDU). The SDU is available through your local distributor. 1. Turn the fryer POWER switch to the OFF position.
2. When shutting down for longer than overnight, filter the cooking oil or shortening and then drain it into suitable storage containers or discard it. Press the POWER switch to the OFF position and allow the fryer to cool. Clean the fryer inside and out in accordance with the procedures in Section 3.6. 3.6 Cleaning and Routine Maintenance 3.6.1 Daily 1.
FLATBOTTOM SERIES ELECTRIC FRYERS CHAPTER 4: UNDER FRYER FILTER (UFF) OPERATION 4.1 General Upon initial installation and before each use, remove all loose parts from the filter, wash the filter pan and loose parts in hot, soapy water, and dry thoroughly. Cooking oil or shortening should be filtered at least daily, or more frequently if cooking is heavy. This maximizes the useful life of the oil or shortening, imparts a better flavor to the product being prepared and minimizes flavor transfer.
Standpipe to right. Pan outlet to left. 4. Place the leaf filter assembly into the bottom of the filter pan, ensuring that the pan outlet is to the left and the standpipe is to the right as you face the fryer. 5. Sprinkle 16 ounces (2 cups) of Magnasol XL filter powder evenly over the filter screen. NOT use other types of filter powder. DO Ensure crumb pan is centered left to right on front of filter pan. 6.
4.3 Filtering Procedure DANGER THE ON-SITE SUPERVISOR IS RESPONSIBLE FOR ENSURING THAT OPERATORS ARE MADE AWARE OF THE INHERENT DANGERS OF OPERATING A HOT OIL FILTER SYSTEM, PARTICULARLY ASPECTS OF OIL FILTRATION, DRAINING, AND CLEANING OF THE FILTER. 1. Assemble tools to be used for filtering. These are supplied with the filter starter kit: • Brush - used to clean the frypot while filtering. • Clean-Out Rod - long rod used to dislodge debris in the drain valve. • Magnasol XL Filter Powder.
8. Leave the fryer drain valve open for approximately 5 minutes, allowing the oil to circulate through the frypot and back into the filter. This step is commonly referred to as polishing and it extends oil life and improves cooking flavor. 9. Close the fryer drain valve. The frypot will begin to fill with filtered oil. 10.
4.4 Disassembly, Cleaning, and Reassembly of the Magnum Leaf Filter Flatbottom Series electric fryers with built-in filtration come equipped with a Magnasol Magnum Leaf Filter, which eliminates the need for filter paper. Follow the instructions below to disassemble, clean, and reassemble the filter. Dissassembly 1. Unscrew the standpipe from the leaf filter assembly and set it aside. Step 1 - Unscrew standpipe and set aside. Step 3 - Separate the outer screens and grid.
Reassembly 1. Place the two outer screens together and align their edges. Steps 1 and 2 - Stack outer screens and insert edges into frame. Step 3 - Insert grid between screens after screens have been positioned in frame. Step 4 - Connect corner and pivot frame over free edges of screens. Ensure hole is on same side as handle. 2. Insert the screens into one of the frame halves (it doesn’t matter which one). Ensure that the hole in the top screen is on the same side of the frame as the handle. 3.
4.5 Filter Troubleshooting Pump won't start. Pump stops during filtering process. Motor is hot. Pump stops and motor is cool. Pump starts and abruptly stops. y y y y Return valve not fully open.
