Start up and Operation
When the dispenser is in place, lock both front casters.
Make sure Power Switch, located on the left side of the operator panel, is turned off.
Assemble the Dispenser (see page 5).
Plug the Power Cord into an approved outlet and turn the Dispenser on.
Note: Turn Dispenser on a minimum of 90 minutes (depending on ambient temperature
conditions) before loading frozen product into the Dispenser. Once the temperature display has
dropped to 10F (-12C) load frozen product into Dispenser and use the Dispenser.
Note: This machine is to be used only for dispensing frozen fries or other approved product.
Any other use may cause injury to personnel or damage to the machine.
The Frozen Fry Dispenser is intended to maintain and dispense frozen fries on demand eliminating the
need for staging full baskets of fries. Dispensing and cooking fries direct from the freezer results in
improved fry quality, consistency and yield.
Do not stage full baskets of fries on the side mount basket rack, if equipped. The side mount
basket rack should be used for empty fry basket storage only.
Loading the Hopper
Note: To achieve optimum fry yield and the
most consistent basket loads, it is important
to use the following technique for loading
frozen fries into the Hopper.
For each bag or box of fries:
1. Remove the bag of fries from the case. Be
careful not to crush the fries.
2. Open the top of the bag or box completely.
(A partially open bag may retain fries.)
3. Hold the opened end of the bag closed with
your hand and lay it in the Hopper with the
opening toward the side opposite of the
Diverter.
4. Release the opened end of the bag or box.
5. Empty the bag into the Hopper by pulling it
evenly toward the diverter. When adding
multiple bags of fries, alternate the
placement of the bag in the Hopper
opposite of the previous bag. The second
bag of fries should be emptied into the
Hopper with the opening toward the
Diverter, and pulling it evenly toward the
Hopper wall opposite the Diverter.
This crisscross loading method assures an
even distribution of fry lengths in the Hopper
and the Baskets
The dispenser hopper holds 36 lbs (16.3 kg)
Hopper capacity may vary depending on the
product.
Warning: Pinch Hazard. Personnel should
take care not to place hands or fingers near
the Drum inside the Hopper while this
machine is in operation. Hands or fingers
could be pinched between the Drum and the
Hopper as the Drum turns.
Note: Do NOT shake or drop fries from the
bag or box into the Hopper, this will result in
unnecessary fry breakage.
Operation
1. Place a basket under the Outlet Door in the
loading position.
2. Press and hold the Dispense Button until
the desired amount of fries are dispensed
into the basket.
3. Release the Dispense Button.
