! DANGER !
The contents of the crumb catch and/or filter pan of any filter system must be emptied into a fireproof
container at the end of the frying operation each day. Some food particles can spontaneously combust
into flames if left soaking in certain oil/shortening materials, causing fire, property damage, injury and
death.
! DANGER !
Any and all spilled oil, water or other liquids that occurs as a result of operation, cleaning, maintenance
or repair of this fryer should immediately be cleaned and dried. Failure to do so can create a slippery
surface resulting in falling/impact injury or death.
! DANGER !
This fryer must not be modified to serve as a water-bath unit. This is especially dangerous if adjoining
frypots are used for conventional frying. Water splashing or falling into hot oil causes dangerous
eruptions in the oil. Personnel near the fryer can be seriously injured.
! DANGER !
Do not operate this equipment unless all covers and access panels are in place and properly secured.
! DANGER !
Building codes prohibit a fryer with its open tank of hot oil being installed beside an open flame of any
type, including those of broilers and ranges.
! DANGER !
Never operate the appliance with an empty frypot. The frypot must be filled to the fill line with water or
cooking oil before energizing the elements. Failure to do so will result in irreparable damage to the
elements and may cause a fire.
! DANGER !
Never set a complete block of solid shortening on top of heating elements. To do so will damage the
elements and increase the potential for flash-point shortening temperatures and subsequent fire.
! WARNING !
DO NOT use the filter pan to transport oil, hot or cold. The filter pan is not designed to transport oil.
Serious injury will result from slipping, falling or contact with hot liquids causing property damage,
injurious severe burns and/or death.
! WARNING !
DO NOT remove frypot fittings before all oil is drained from the tank. Serious injury will result from
slipping, falling or contact with hot liquids causing property damage, injurious severe burns and/or death.
! WARNING !
For appliances equipped with manual (opposed to automated) filtration, shut down the appliance
completely when the shortening, fat or oil is being drained from the appliance. This will prevent the
appliance inadvertently heating up during the draining and filtering process.
