WARNING
If the pilot is out, do the following:
1. Turn the combination gas control valve
knob to the PILOT position. 2. Lightly
press down the valve knob and turn it to
OFF. 3. WAIT 5 MINUTES. 4. Re-light the
pilot. FAILURE TO WAIT 5 MINUTES
FOR THE GAS TO DISSIPATE COULD
RESULT IN A FIRE OR AN EXPLOSION
WHEN YOU RE-LIGHT THE PILOT.
7. Move the valve knob switch to the ON
position.
8. Set the thermostat to the desired setting.
The pilot light on the control box will come
on, indicating that the shortening
temperature is lower then the desired
temperature.
10. Note: If the high temperature limit control
does break the circuit, push the red reset
button on the back of the control box.
11. Wait for the shortening to reach the desired
temperature. When it does, the pilot light
will go out. DO NOT run the conveyor until
all the shortening has melted.
12. If using the optional Shortening Reserve
Tank, fill it with shortening. Then position
it on the conveyor side panels either ahead
of or behind the turner, but not above it.
The heat of the fryer will melt the shortening
in the tank.
13. Disengage the swing connecting rod from
the swing column throw arm and swing the
hopper away from over the fryer.
14. Adjust the size selector dial on the cutter
head’s crankshaft assembly. This dial
regulates the donut weight. The higher the
setting, the larger the donuts will be. Adjust
the dial setting as follows:
a. Unscrew the dial lock nut 1/2 turn.
b. Turn the dial to the desired position, as
indicated by the marks on the crank
plate.
c. Tighten the dial in place with the lock
nut. Tighten it using your fingers only.
15. Put dough into the hopper. Prime the hopper
to expel any air that may be trapped in the
bottom of it. To prime the hopper:
a. Hold a mixing bowl under the cutter.
b. Hold down the prime switch on the
cutter head and run the cutter until it has
dropped two or three donuts into the
bowl.
Note: Holding down the prime switch
causes the cutter to run continuously
without the normal delay between cuts.
c. Put the dough in the bowl back in the
hopper.
16. Return the hopper into position over the fryer
and reconnect the swing connecting rod to
the swing column throw arm.
17. Choose the appropriate fry time for your
product using the fry time control knob on
the control box.
18. Using the switch on the control box, select
the number of donuts
−one or two−you want
to cut during each swing cycle of the hopper.
19. Turn on the cutter using the power switch on
the cutter head.
20. Turn on the conveyor drive using the power
switch on the control box.
