1. Once the fryer has been positioned at the frying station, use a carpenter’s level placed across the
top of the frypot to verify that the unit is level, both side-to-side and front-to-back.
To level fryers, adjust the casters being careful to ensure the fryer(s) are at the proper height in
the frying station.
When the fryer is leveled in its final position, install the restraints provided by the KES to limit
its movement so that it does not depend on or transmit stress to the electrical conduit or
connection. Install the restraints in accordance with the provided instructions. If the restraints
are disconnected for service or other reasons, they must be reconnected before the fryer is used.
DANGER
Adequate means must be provided to limit the movement of this appliance without
depending on or transmitting stress to the electrical conduit. A restraint kit is
provided with single non-filter fryers. If the restraint kit is missing contact your local
KES.
DANGER
Hot oil can cause severe burns. Avoid contact. Under all circumstances, oil must be
removed from the fryer before attempting to move it to avoid oil spills, falls and
severe burns. This fryer may tip and cause personal injury if not secured in a
stationary position.
WARNING
The on-site supervisor is responsible for ensuring that operators are made aware
of the inherent hazards of operating a hot oil frying system, particularly the aspects
of system operation, oil filtration, draining and cleaning procedures.
2. New units are wiped clean with solvents at the factory to remove any visible signs of dirt, oil,
grease, etc. remaining from the manufacturing process, then coated lightly with oil. Before any
food preparation, wash thoroughly with hot, soapy water to remove any film residue and dust or
debris then rinse out and wipe dry. Also wash any accessories shipped with the unit. Close the
drain valve completely.
3. Fill frypot(s) to the bottom OIL LEVEL line scribed into the back of the frypot with cooking oil.
