Rules for Safe Operation

• All fryers are potentially

hazardous in that fire, electrical

shock, or burns may occur. The

hazard is increased in pressure

fryer operation because

shortening is under pressure.

The equipment must be installed

and serviced ONLY by

authorized service agents.

• All operating procedures must be

followed carefully

• If shortening begins to smoke

excessively, turn the fryer OFF

and immediately contact your

authorized service agent.

Fryer Start Up

• Make sure heating elements are completely covered by shortening before applying

heat.

Cooking

• Follow all established procedures for operating equipment and cooking products.

• DO NOT open drain valve during cook cycle.

• Cook ONLY authorized products and follow established minimum/maximum

cook quantities.

• Always use basket hook to lower, raise or otherwise handle fryer basket.

Filtering/Cleaning

• Turn fryer OFF before draining shortening to filtering unit.

• Follow established procedures for emptying and cleaning collector.

• Never use steel wool to clean any part of the fryer.

• DO NOT use the "burn-off" method to clean heating elements.

• DO NOT use soap to clean any part of the fryer. DO NOT use water to clean any

part of the fryer except as specified in established procedures.

Miscellaneous

• Use care when operating or cleaning fryer to prevent burns from hot metal parts

and shortening.

Start Up

1 Perform

safety

checks

• Check that drain valve is closed.

• Shortening level must be at OIL LEVEL line.

• Check level of fryer by looking at shortening level in frypot.

Shortening level in frypot should be equal distance from top of all

3 heater brackets. Adjust legs as necessary to level fryer.

2 Turn fryer ON,

heat

shortening

• Turn fryer ON. Make sure power lamp is ON.

• If in COOL MODE, press EXIT COOL, select product button.

HEAT ON light will cycle on and off until shortening temperature

reaches 185°F, then heat will stay on. Display will begin indicating

temperature at 255°F

3 Melt

shortening

in collector

• Push stirring tool through solid shortening to

bottom of collector. Stir and swirl shortening

until completely melted.

4 Check

collector

• Carefully feel exterior of collector bottom with hand to see if it’s

hot. If not hot, continue to stir until it is hot to the touch.

5 Install

heat plate

• Use heat resistant gloves and install heat plate using the collector

removal tool (diamond-shaped hole UP).

6 Heat

shortening

to DROP

temperature

• After droP is displayed, or HEAT ON light goes OFF, check

shortening level. If needed, add small amounts of shortening.

• To OIL LEVEL line inside rear of frypot.

• If overfilled, dip out excess shortening using a saucepan and use

later as add back.

• Ready to cook first round.

Discard Cracklings and Filter Shortening Twice Daily

• During a busy/high volume period or day when continually

cooking back to back rounds, cracklings may need to be removed

from collector more than 2 times each day. Failure to filter at

least 2 times daily will produce chicken with black specks and

will reduce shortening life.

• Refer to the procedure for type of filtering equipment being used.

Daily Cleaning Fryer

• Wear heat resistant gloves and goggles while performing

these steps.

• NEVER use steel wool or soap to clean any fryer part.

• NEVER use water unless called for in procedure.

• There should be 2 sets of lid o-rings and collector o-rings for

each fryer. While one set is in use on the fryer, the other set

should be kept in cold water in the refrigerator. O-rings

should be switched each day during daily cleaning.

• Wipe lid and yoke surfaces with a towel. Be sure lid o-ring

groove, safety valve opening and pressure gauge opening are

clean and free of baked-on shortening.

4 Drain

shortening

• Put filter unit under drain. Open drain valve slowly to let

shortening drain into the filter unit. Let fryer drain until no more

shortening flows from valve.

5 Remove

• DO NOT use displacement tool to dip

shortening from fryer. When cracklings flow

from drain valve, remove displacement tool.

Clean at sink.

7 Remove

collector

• Insert collector removal tool into loop inside

collector to lift out of frypot. Pour as much

shortening as you can (but not cracklings) into

shortening filter.

• Leave heat plate on top of fryer overnight.

15 Remove

and clean

condensate

tray

Checking Fryer Recovery Rate – Monthly

• The fryer recovery rate check is necessary to determine if the fryer is

heating correctly. During start up, using a stop watch or a watch with a

second hand, start timing once the display reads 275°F. When the fryer

reaches 300°F, stop and note the length of time for the fryer to heat up.

Compare this to the ideal recovery range. If the time is higher than the

maximum recovery range, contact maintenance. If the fryers don't

recover in the allotted time, the product will not be cooked to KFC

standards.

Ideal Recovery Range

1 minute

Maximum Recovery Range

1 minute 30 seconds

Changing Shortening

Wear heat resistant gloves and goggles while

performing these steps.

• Shortening must be changed and inside of fryer

must be cleaned when visibility is less than

3" on visibility tester, if shortening smokes

excessively, or if off-flavors develop.

• Make sure grease barrel has room for old

shortening. DO NOT pour shortening down

floor drain.

Check visibility daily when shortening is at drop

temperature. You must change the shortening if

you can’t see the plate when shortening touches the

3” mark on the rod.

For details on using the visibility tester, see

"Shortening Management" chapter in

Standards Library Vol. 1.
