WHEN COLD.

Fig 3

NOTE: BLUE SEAL 'Deep Fryers’ can be used with both oil and shortening.

1. Before filling the tank, always check that the drain valve(s) behind the access door is (are) closed. A locking slide is provided on these valves and this should always be locked in position during use.

2. Ensure that the elements are swung down into the tank(s).

OIL - Carefully fill the fryer tank until the lower ‘Fill Level’ mark is reached.

Set the thermostat to the required operating temperature, the oil will expand as heated and will reach the upper level mark when the oil is hot (180 - 190°C).

 The E43 single tank fryer will hold 27 to 29 litres of oil.

 The E44 twin tank fryer will hold 14 litres of oil per pan.

SHORTENING - Ideally shortening should be pre-melted prior to putting it into the tank. This is normally done in a suitable vessel on a boiling table burner(s). The liquefied shortening can then be poured into the tank until it reaches the 'FILL LEVEL' mark.

 The E43 single tank fryer will hold 22 - 23kg of shortening.

 The E44 twin tank fryer will hold 11kg of shortening per tank.

NOTE: When pre-melting shortening, only heat the shortening until it is just liquefied. Do not bring the shortening up to high temperature as handling of hot shortening is dangerous.

 If pre-melting of shortening is not possible, carefully cut the shortening into small pieces and pack below, all around and above the elements, ensuring that the element can fully lower to operate the element tilt microswitch otherwise the fryer will not operate.

E43 and E44; - Set the tank control thermostat to 120°C and switch the appliance ‘ON’ for 30 seconds and then ‘OFF’ for 1 minute. Repeat the cycle until all the shortening is melted enough to apply full power to the heating elements. To speed up this process, break up the shortening and stir carefully during the melting process.

NOTE: Running the elements continuously will cause the shortening in contact with the tank to overheat, resulting in premature oil breakdown. Never allow the shortening to smoke while melting as this indicates that the temperature is too high. If the shortening starts smoking, increase the ‘Off’ intervals of the elements.

These fryers have been fitted with a ‘Fail Safe Over Temperature Safety Cut-Out’ which will protect the oil / fat from excessive temperature if the thermostat control should fail. The power light will turn ‘Off’ if the over temperature control has been triggered. The twin tank fryer (E44E) has an individual ‘Fail Safe Over

Temperature Safety Cut-Out’ for each tank.

Over-Temp Control

The over-temp thermostat is mounted behind the transformer panel, behind the access door and its sensing bulb is located alongside the thermostat.

This control is set for approx. 225-235°C oil cutout temperature. To reset the 'Overtemp Control', allow the oil to cool down to approx 160-180°C then operate the red switch behind the access door.

The power light will then turn ‘On’.

NOTE: On dual tank models, if either 'Over-Temperature Control' is triggered, a fault exists in the main thermostat and this must be reported and repaired. For temporary operation, the

Model E43E is fitted with a thermostat as a backup.

15

DO NOT USE FLAMMIBLE SOLVENTS AND CLEANING AIDS ON OR IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO F RYER WHILST

F RYER IS STILL HOT.

To achieve the best results, cleaning must be regular and thorough and all controls and mechanical parts checked and adjusted periodically by a qualified service person. If any small faults occur, have them attended to promptly. Don't wait until they cause a complete breakdown. It is recommended that the appliance is serviced every 6 months.

Clean the fryer regularly. A clean fryer looks better, will last longer and will perform better.

NOTE:

 DO NOT use sharp scrapers, strong solvents, abrasive or caustic detergents as they could corrode or damage the fryer.

 Ensure that any detergent or cleaning material have been completely removed after each cleaning.

To keep your fryer clean and operating at peak efficiency, follow the procedures below:-

D O NOT ATTEMPT TO MOVE F RYER WHILST F RYER IS FULL OF OIL .

1. At end of each day or at end of each shift, if frying schedule is heavy, frying medium should be drained and filtered into a receptacle.

2. Always filter the fryer when the cool zone under the elements is hot and liquid. A cold fryer heated up won't drain, because frying medium in this zone will remain hard if using solid fat / oils.

3. Screw the drain extension pipe onto the end of the drain valve (see

Fig 4) and position a suitable container and filter under the drain extension pipe.

Fig 5 Fig 6

4. Do not empty the total contents of the fryer into one large container, as this will be dangerous and may be difficult, when lifted up, to pour hot oil back into tank.

5. Slip a muslin or other suitable filter bag over the end of the drain valve. Crumbs will be caught in the bag but frying medium will strain freely through into receptacle.

6. Open drain valve slowly to minimise splashing, and take care not to overfill container.

7. When tank has been drained, use a ladle or small pan with a handle and dip into hot frying medium from container and pour around sides and bottom of tank to wash out crumbs and particles adhering to tank.

8. Continue to dip and pour until all crumbs are washed down and into filter bag.

9. Open drain valve fully and check for any particles or crumb residue lodged in the valve. Clean out the valve with a stiff nylon brush. Do not use a wire brush as this may damage the valve seating and will eventually lead to leakage. If obstruction cannot be removed with a soft brush, use a wooden probe to dislodge obstruction.

10. Wipe all exterior panels with a cloth dampened with detergent and rinse off any residue with clean warm water.

11. Clean Control Panel with a damp cloth lightly moistened with a solution of water and a commercial quality foodservice approved detergent.

12. Once the daily cleaning operation is completed, close drain valve and pour frying medium back into the tank.

17

NOTE: If fryer usage is very high, we recommend that the weekly cleaning procedure is carried out more frequently.

1. Proceed to drain and filter the tank as for 'Daily Cleaning'. Do not refill tank with frying medium until it has been thoroughly cleaned as shown below.

2. Fill fryer with cold water to the normal fill level and add a high quality commercial cleaner that has been specifically formulated for fryers.

All purpose cleaners are not recommended

.

NOTE: Never use a caustic or lye solution, as this will leave a fat destroying film on tank.

3. Ensure that the elements are lowered into the tank. Switch ‘ON’ the power and heat the water to approximately 80-90°C.

4. Clean the fryer baskets at the same time by immersing them in the cleaning solution. Allow fryer to soak for 5-10 minutes or as directed on cleaner instructions. Remove baskets and turn Off main burners.

5. Scrub the baskets and fryer tank with a stiff nylon bristle brush to remove any remaining deposits.

DO NOT use a wire brush to clean the tank , as this will scratch the sides of the tank

.

6. Empty fryer and rinse thoroughly with water. Use a 1 part vinegar to 15 parts water solution to rinse tank and neutralise any cleaner residue. If this proves unsuitable for cleaner being used, use a weaker solution of up to 1 part vinegar to 25 parts water.

7. Rinse tank thoroughly with water, drain and dry.

8. Refill tank with new filtered frying medium.

Stainless Steel Surfaces a. With the tank(s) drained, cleaned and dried as shown above, clean exterior surfaces of the fryer with hot water, a mild detergent solution and a soft cloth. b. Dry all components thoroughly with a dry cloth and polish with a soft dry cloth. c. To remove any discoloration, use an approved stainless steel cleaner or stainless steel wool.

Always rub in direction of the grain.

NOTE: All maintenance operations should only be carried out by a qualified service person.

To achieve the best results, cleaning must be regular and thorough. All controls and mechanical parts should be checked and adjusted periodically by a qualified service person. If any small faults occur, have them attended to promptly. Don't wait until they cause a complete breakdown. It is recommended that the appliance is serviced every 6 months.

Oil Smoking.

Darkening of Oil.

Insufficient turnover of oil.

Continual frying with excess moisture on food.

Contamination of oil.

Overheating of oil.

Rapid breakdown of oil.

Use of unrefined oils.

Presence of salt on the food.

Foods dipped in batter high in egg yolk.

Contamination of oil.

Poor cleaning practice.

Overheating of oil.

Insufficient oil turnover.

Cooking foods with high sugar levels.

Maintain a minimum quantity of oil in fryer for more rapid turnover or increase the quantity of food fried in fryer. Replace with fresh oil every 3 to 5 days.

Drain foods before frying, pat food dry.

Filter or strain daily to remove contaminants.

Check thermostat setting with a thermometer or thermocouple.

Use a stable frying oil.

Dripping smokes at lower temperature than refined and deodorised oils.

Salt foods after frying and away from the fryer.

Reduce egg content of batter, replace part egg with milk.

Filter or strain oil daily to remove contaminants.

Clean fryer at least weekly or each day in cases of heavy usage. Ensure fryer is perfectly dry before use.

Check thermostat setting with a thermometer or thermocouple.

Top up daily to replace the contents of fryer in 3 to 5 days.

At the end of the season, potatoes are usually high in reduced sugars. When fried, they will darken quickly and colour the oil.

NOTE: Excessive oil usage is an indication of high absorption of oil into the food. This is a function of temperature and character of the goods being fried - NOT due to type of oil being used (unless refined oils are being used). Any variation in the apparent life of the oil is always due to one or more of the causes mentioned above.
