8 Weekly Cleaning
The appliance should be thoroughly cleaned AT LEAST once a week. This should include a thorough wipe down
of the entire appliance with a rag and mild detergent.
Warning
The power supply must be disconnected before cleaning and servicing this appliance!
Warning
NEVER spray cleaner into the main burners or pilot. This could act as a magnet for dust and
other debris, causing it to accumulate and inhibit the proper operation of your appliance.
9 Boil Out Procedure
The appliance should be boiled out AT LEAST once a week to remove food debris and shortening/oil build up.
You will need a container large enough to hold 1 ½ times the shortening/oil in the tank. Refer to the following
procedure for weekly boil out.
Warning
Completely shut the appliance down when the shortening/oil is being drained and
replaced with water. This will prevent the main burners from coming on during the
draining and filling procedure.
Warning
At operating temperatures, the shortening/oil in the appliance is VERY HOT and can cause
severe burns. Do not let the hot shortening/oil touch your skin or clothing. ALWAYS wear
insulated, oil proof gloves, protective clothing and eyewear when working on a hot
appliance.
a. Drain the shortening/oil from the appliance and discard or save for reuse. Remove the tube
screen. Close the drain valve and fill the tank with warm water and non-caustic detergent
b. Restart the appliance as described in this manual and set the thermostat to 200°F (93 °C). Bring
the water to a slow boil. DO NOT allow the water to boil excessively as this will cause excessive
foaming and boil over.
c. Allow the appliance to soak for 20 minutes to soften shortening/oil deposits. Use the cleaning
brush to scrub and remove any residue from the tank, tubes and side walls.
d. When finished drain the water and wipe the tank dry with a soft clean cloth.
e. Ensure that the drain valve is closed and replace the tube screen.
f. You may now refill the tank with shortening/oil per the filling instructions in this manual.
