Range-Match Fryers
Before Operating the Fryer
1. Before leaving the factory, the fryer was tested, and the
thermostat calibrated with oil in the fry tank; therefore it
is necessary to clean the fry tank before lling with frying
compound. Use detergent or other cleaning agents with
hot water. Thoroughly rinse and dry.
2. Never operate the pilot or burner with an empty fry tank.
It will only take a few minutes to ruin the tank and void
the warranty.
3. If the fryer is equipped with a cold-rolled steel fry tank,
and is not to be lled immediately after cleaning, coat
the entire tank surface with shortening or cooking oil to
prevent rusting.
Fryer Burner
The burner used in Starre Range-Match Series Fryers
is a patented design which requires no primary air; so
adjustment of primary air is not possible. When the proper
gas is supplied at the proper pressure, and the ceramic
targets are properly adjusted, combustion will begin about
even with the bottom of the ceramics. The characteristic
sound is a low roar, similar to a blow-torch.
NEVER throttle down the incoming gas in an eort to make
the ame burn directly on the orice.
Lighting Instructions
1. Before lighting the pilot, ll the fry tank with frying
compound.
2. Turn the thermostat to the “OFF” position. Depress and
turn the gas control knob to the “OFF” position. Wait ve
(5) minutes.
3. Turn the control knob to the “PILOT” position.
4. Push the control knob in and press the piezo ignitor.
Continue to hold the control knob in for about 60
seconds after the pilot is lit.
