35 SERIES GAS FRYERS
CHAPTER 5: PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
5-3
10. Set the thermostat to 280ºF (138ºC).
11. Simmer the solution for 1 hour.
WARNING
Never leave the fryer unattended during this process. If the solution overflows, turn
the gas valve off immediately.
12. After the solution has simmered for 1 hour, turn the gas valve to the OFF position and allow the solution
to cool.
13. Drain the solution into a suitable container (NOT the Filter Magic II filter pan or Shortening Dis-
posal Unit) and thoroughly wipe the frypot with a clean towel.
14. Close the drain valve and fill the frypot with clean, cold water and drain. Repeat the rinse process
again, and then wipe frypot with a clean, dry towel.
15. Refill with shortening.
DANGER
Ensure that the frypot is completely free of water before filling with cooking oil or
shortening. When the oil or shortening is heated to cooking temperature, water in the
frypot will cause splattering.
Clean Detachable Parts and Accessories
As with the frypot, a deposit of carbonized oil/shortening will accumulate on detachable parts and accesso-
ries such as baskets, sediment trays.
Wipe all detachable parts and accessories with a clean cloth dampened with a detergent solution. (Frymas-
ter recommends the use of Frymaster Fryer ‘N’ Griddle Cleaner, available through your local distributor,
for best results.) Rinse and thoroughly dry each part.
Check Calibration of Thermostat Knob
1. Set the temperature control knob to frying temperature.
2. Let the burner cycle on and off automatically three times in order for the cooking oil/shortening tem-
perature to become uniform. If necessary, stir to get all shortening in the bottom of the frypot melted.
3. Insert a good-grade thermometer or pyrometer probe into the oil/shortening, with the end touching the
fryer temperature-sensing probe.
