3.1 Start-Up Procedure
DANGER
Never operate this appliance with an empty frypot. The frypot must be filled with
water or cooking oil/shortening before lighting the burners. Failure to do so will
damage the frypot and may cause a fire.
WARNING
The on-site supervisor is responsible for ensuring that operators are made aware of
the inherent hazards of operating a hot oil filtering system, particularly the aspects
of oil filtration, draining and cleaning procedures.
CAUTION
Before lighting the fryer, make sure the fryer is OFF and the frypot drain valve is
closed. Remove the basket support rack, if installed, and fill the frypot to the bottom
OIL-LEVEL line.
If solid shortening is being used in fryers with Melt Cycle Option, ensure the
shortening is tightly packed down into the bottom of the frypot.
In fryers without Melt Cycle Option, solid shortening must be pre-melted prior to
filling frypot.
