9. Turn on the conveyor drive using the power
switch on the heater head.
Note: If the conveyor becomes jammed, a
warning buzzer will sound about a minute
later and stop when the conveyor is turned
off. The conveyor drive is impedance-
protected so it will not burn out due to
jamming.
WARNING
If the conveyor becomes jammed: 1. Turn
off the conveyor drive and the heater. 2.
Allow the system to cool down. HOT
SHORTENING IS DANGEROUS.
3. Determine the cause of the jamming.
4. Clear it. 5. Restart the system.
10. Continue adding shortening to the kettle to
maintain the proper shortening level (see
step 3). There are two ways to do this:
• Use the optional EZ Melt, transfer more
shortening from it. See the EZ Melt
manual.
• Pre-melt some shortening in a pan on the
stove and carefully pour it into the kettle.
11. Continue loading proof cloths onto the Feed
Table as needed.
Making Cake Donuts
1. Pivot the splash guard toward the outfeed
end of the fryer. (See Figure 1-2.)
2. Install the swing column, connect the swing
connecting rod, install the cutter head, and
install the hopper and plunger, if you have
not done so already.
3. When the shortening reaches the correct
frying temperature, it should reach the top of
the flight bars.
Shortening expands as it increases in
temperature. This means that unless the
shortening is at frying temperature when you
put it in the kettle, you should put it in
gradually. Let the shortening in the kettle
heat up before you add more.
Put shortening in the kettle using one of
these methods:
• Use the optional EZ Melt to melt
shortening and transfer it to the kettle.
See your EZ Melt manual.
• Pre-melt shortening in a pan on the stove
and carefully pour it into the kettle.
WARNING
Hot shortening causes severe burns.
• Put solid shortening into the kettle,
packing it tightly around the elements
and bulbs.
WARNING
Air spaces can cause the shortening to
overheat and catch on fire.
