Operating Cautions:
• Hot oil is dangerous-contact with skin can result in severe burns
• Place your fryer on a table or base strong enough to support it and keep it from
being knocked off its base.
• Keep your floors clean so no one slips and contacts the fryer.
• Oil is flammable! Keep open flames away from oil and vapors.

easily.
• Install an automatic fire extinguisher over the fryer and exhaust duct.
• Consult your local fire protection agency for you area requirements. Check
regularly to insure safe and proper function.
• If your fryer starts to smoke or boil abnormally, cut off power supply and
determine the reason before attempting to use it again.
• Be sure the power source is installed properly and in accordance with your local
and national codes.
• See that all your personnel understand the hazards of hot oil. Instruct them on
the proper action if something does not seem to be acting properly.
• Instruct your personnel on what to do if there is a grease fire. Do NOT use water
on a grease fire! Use only fire extinguishers of the approved type and never
direct the extinguisher so as to blow the grease out of the oil tank.
• Use appropriate frying shortening.
• Remember hot oil is dangerous!
