Warning
Do not select any setting other than FMC when using solid fats as this will trip
the Temperature Limit (safety) thermostat or in a worst case scenario, ignite
the liquefied oils.
c) Fat or oil temperature will then be governed by controller to desired set temperature, selected
by user on the control knob.
7.0 CHANGING/FILTERING THE OIL
Warning
After filtering, wait 30 seconds before removing bucket.
It is dangerous to use shortening that is too old. This medium has a
reduced flash point temperature and is prone to surge boiling.
Caution
To prevent surge boiling, DO NOT EXCEED recommended loads or
charge the pan with over-wet food items. NEVER LEAVE a working appliance
unattended
Warning
When draining solids/shortening, ensure oil has time to
strain through
strainer basket. Heavily unfiltered oil may overflow.
Note
This could cause pump to block over a period of time and is considered as misuse of
equipment.
7.1 STARTING THE FILTRATION PROCESS
Turn burner & temperature controls ON/OFF switch to
OFF position and allow oil to cool below
170°C (or if cold, heat to minimum temperature of 60°C). Open cabinet door and pull filter bucket
forward.
1.
Ensure bucket is clean and emptied of all solids /
shortening and debris. Refer to Section 8
for details of
how to clean filter components.
2.
Ensure that strainer and microfilter are clean.
3.
With strainer and microfilter in position, slide bucket back on to runner cradle and back into
fryer.
Warning
When pumping solids/shortening back into fryer pan. Ensure all trace
of solids/shortening is emptied from receptacle (bucket).
If oil is not emptied on a regular basis or if oil is left in the receptacle, it may
solidify and overflow or spill on to the kitchen floor to create a hazard.
