Operation Frying Temperature Guide and Care of Frying Medium Summary of Practical Care of Frying Fats and Oils Fats and oils are unstable compounds. Even the best oils and fats will break down to some extent in the fryer. There are a number of causes of frying mediums ceasing to be edible. Heat and moisture are two of the most important causes and we have both heat and moisture in the deep well fryer.
Cleaning and Maintenance WARNING: DO NOT USE FLAMMIBLE SOLVENTS AND CLEANING AIDS ON OR IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO THE FRYER WHILST THE FRYER IS STILL HOT. C AUTIO N : Always turn off the gas and electrical supply at the mains supply before cleaning. This appliance is not water proof. Do not use water jet spray to clean interior or exterior of this appliance.

Fault Finding Guide to Cooking Problems with Fryer This section provides an easy reference guide to the more common problems that may occur during the operation of your equipment. The fault finding guide in this section is intended to help you correct, or at least accurately diagnose problems with your equipment. Although this section covers the most common problems reported, you may encounter a problem not covered in this section.
Fault Finding Fault Rapid oil breakdown. Possible Cause Remedy Inadequate frying oil turnover. Adjust procedures to fry more food in the fryer to increase the turnover. Overheating of oil. Check the setting of the thermostat with a 'Mercury In Glass' thermometer or thermocouple. Filter or strain the oil daily. Contamination. Poor cleaning procedures. Oil smoking. Presence of copper or brass in the fryer equipment. Overloading fryer.
Fault Finding Fault Finding the Gas System Fault Pilot Burners will not light / stay alight. Possible Cause Check gas supply is turned on. Check gas supply is low or empty. Thermocouple connection loose. Over temperature lead connection to interrupter on thermocouple is loose. Loose connections will cause resistance to millivolt circuit and result in pilot outage. Pilot Burner delay in ignition of main burners. Remedy Turn on gas supply. Replenish gas supply. Tighten thermocouple connection.
Fault Finding Fault Over temperature thermostat cuts out the Pilot Burners. Possible Cause Overtemperature thermostat is faulty. Main Burners do not light. Main Burners Do Not Burn Correctly. Remedy If thermostat cutting out pilot when the oil temperature is below 200°C. Replace over temperature thermostat. Refer to ‘Wiring Diagrams’. Burners roar, light back through the mesh to the burner or do not burn the correct colour. Check the operating pressure is correct.
