3-9. BASIC OPERATIONS
Henny Penny Open Fryer models OFE/OFG are available
AND PROCEDURES
with 12 product button controls. Also, models OEA/OGA
(12 Product Controls/Auto-lift)
are available with 12 button controls, equipped with auto-lift
features. The auto-lift controls, allow the baskets to be
automatically lowered into the shortening, at the beginning of
the cook cycle, and raised from the shortening at the end of
the
cycle.
1. Be sure the drain valve is in the closed position.
2. Fill the frypot with shortening.
3. Move POWER switch to the ON position. Unit
automatically goes into the Melt Cycle. When the
temperature reaches 250
F (121C), the control exits
the Melt Cycle and heats the shortening until the
temperature
setting
is
reached.
The OFG-320 series open fryer has several safety devices
which shuts down the gas supply when they are activated.
The above procedures should be followed to restart the
fryer and if the shut down is repeated, a qualified
technician should be notified
.
The Melt Cycle may be bypassed if desired, by pressing
a product button and holding it for five seconds.
Do not bypass the Melt Cycle unless enough shortening
on gas fryers and elements on electric fryers. If Melt
Cycle is bypassed before all burner tubes or elements
are covered, excessive smoking of the shortening, or a
fire
will
result.
4.
Once out of the Melt Cycle, the WAIT LED flashes
until the setpoint temperature has been reached. Then
the
READY
LED
illuminates.
If the Energy Save Mode is activated for gas fryers, the
pilot light goes out and the blower turns off, if the fryer
is idle for 2 minutes with the READY LED lit. Starting
shortening temperature drops to where the READY
LED goes out, the fryer resumes normal heat-up mode
until the READY LED comes back on. (See SP-19).
