5. Verify that the drum and deflector are properly positioned inside the hopper. Failure to do so will result
in a malfunction of your unit. If the deflector is deformed (i.e., bent or distorted), a malfunction of your
unit is likely.
DANGER
A pinch-point exists between the drum and hopper when the drum is turning. When removing or
installing the deflector or dispensing chute, place the ON/OFF Rocker Switch in the “OFF” position.
6. Verify that the hopper is properly positioned in its cradle. Make sure that the hopper is seated behind the
locking rim on the cradle. Failure to do so will result in malfunctioning of your unit.
7. Verify that the sight glass is installed. If it is not installed, fries will fall out of the hopper during opera-
tion.
8. Place the ON/OFF Rocker Switch in the ON position. The switch will illuminate, indicating that electri-
cal power is being supplied to the unit.
9. Press the RUN Switch once to place the unit in the RUN mode. The indicator light in the switch will
illuminate. The dispensing chute door will open as the unit begins self-calibration and the lights in the
batch weight selectors will sequentially flash. The door will close about 20 seconds later and the lights
will stop flashing when calibration is completed. Only the RUN mode indicator will be illuminated.
10. Open the hopper lid and load up to 42 lbs/19 kg of French fries into the hopper. Close the hopper lid.
11. Press the BATCH WEIGHT Selector that corresponds to the desired weight of potatoes. The factory-
programmed weights are 0.5 lb/.23 kg, 1.0 lb/.45 kg, and 1.5 lb/.68 kg (see illustration on Page 2-1).
The indicator light in the selector will illuminate and the drum will begin to rotate, transferring fries from
the hopper to the dispensing chute. When the prescribed weight has been transferred, drum rotation will
cease.
12. Insert an empty basket all the way to the rear of the dispensing chamber. The dispensing chute door will
open, dropping the fries into the basket. When the chute is empty, the door will close and the unit will
begin to transfer another batch of fries into the chute.
CAUTION
The dispensing of fries into a basket is initiated by an inductive proximity switch located in the
dispensing well. The proximity switch activates only when it senses a metallic mass greater than a
certain size (e.g., an inserted basket). Thus, it will not be activated by the operator’s hand, a cleaning
cloth, or any other non-metallic object. However, a ring, watch or some other type of metal could
initiate a dispense cycle if inserted into the switch detection area.
NOTE: Built-in logic recognizes the removal and replacement of the basket. Once a dispense cycle has been
completed, another basket may be inserted into the dispense well. As soon as the fries in the chute reach the
specified weight, the unit will immediately dispense them into the waiting basket. The unit will NOT initiate
another dispense cycle if the full basket is not removed and replaced, nor will it initiate another dispense cy-
cle if there is no basket in the dispense well.
To change the batch weight, press another of the numbered selectors before the chute is emptied. If the
weight is increased, fries will be dispensed until the new weight is attained. If the batch weight is reduced,
the change will take effect with the next cycle after the dispensing chute is emptied.
