Start-Up Procedures and Operation
Initial Start-up Procedure or After a System Shut-Down
1. When the system start-up for the first time or after a system shut-down, the procedure
below should be followed:
2. Verify that both collection vessels have their fines basket(s) installed.
3. Verify that the fines baskets are securely retained by the fines basket retainer device (not
applicable to single basket).
4. Inspect the sealing area of the collection vessel lid to ensure it is clean and free of dirt or
fines.
5. Inspect the o-ring, on the collection vessel lid, to ensure that it is clean, in the proper
position, and not nicked or cut.
6. Lower the collection vessel’s lid
7. Tighten the cross-handle bolts in a crossing (diagonal) pattern. Tighten all of the cross-
handle bolts slowly and evenly. Hand tight is sufficient and a small gap between the
Fines Vessel and the Fines Vessel Lid is expected.
8. Lower the collection vessel shroud.
9. Open the isolation valves (7, 8) by moving the handle over the collection vessel shroud.
10. Inspect and close drain valves (11, 12).
11. Verify that the hand valves are fully opened (requires several turns to fully open or close
the valve. Clockwise to close and counter-clockwise to open). (13, 14, 15, 16).
12. The frying system can now be safely started and operated.
