OPERATING GENERAL EVENT SEQUENCE Following is the usual chain of events that should take place during a full cooking cycle in the Collectramatic® fryer with the 8000 series controller. Be sure to read this entire manual and follow all instructions and warnings in this manual and on the fryer before using the fryer. This page is a general overview only and is not meant to be complete step-by-step instructions. Pages for detailed instructions are shown at the end of each statement below.
OPERATING q q q q q q q q q q q q Drop signal is on display. Add or remove cooking oil to make level between oil level lines. With safety gloves and drain hook, lower loaded basket into cooking oil. Press lit channel button to start timer (sample time shown). When timer at :00, buzzer sounds and display shows press lit channel button. q Flashes on and off for ten seconds, then . q Using safety gloves and drain hook, remove basket from fryer.
OPERATING q Close drain valve. q Remove and clean collector gasket. q DANGER: Do not use “boil-out” method of cleaning fryer or fill fryer with any liquid other than cooking oil. Fryer is made to be pressurized only with cooking oils. If pressurized with other liquids, you may be burned, badly hurt, or killed. q Place metal container under open collector area. q Scrub heaters with white Teflon brush. q Use cooking oil to rinse away any remaining food particles. q Wash accessories at sink.
OPERATING FILLING The following filling procedure is to be used when fryer is first filled with cooking oil and when cooking oil is changed. 1. Turn off Power Switch. 2. Clean Fryer per daily cleaning procedure - see pages 23-26. 3. Check Collector and Drain Valve - Make sure collector with gasket is seated and drain valve is closed (handle pointing towards top rear of fryer–see Figure 1). 4. Lubricate Lid Gasket (pressure fryers only) and Collector Gasket with cooking oil before placing on fryer.
OPERATING WARM-UP Failure to follow procedure below may result in first batch of cooked food being off-color and improperly done. DANGER: Do not turn on power unless all heater coils are completely covered by cooking oil. Fill shortening to a level between the Maximum and Minimum oil level lines found on the inside of the cookpot (see Figure 3). 1. Turn on circuit breaker and Power Switch. Cone: Do not stir below this area after the first round of cooking each day. 2.
OPERATING 10. Deep stir (into collector) cooking oil vigorously for at least 15 seconds. 3rd Stir 11. Drop message will change to cooking oil temperature. DO NOT stir cooking oil. 12. Drop message will be displayed. 13. CAUTION: HOT SURFACES. Feel bottom of collector – must be hot to touch. If not, deep stir cooking oil vigorously again for at least 15 seconds. 14. Continue to repeat stirring and letting temperature rise to DROP until collector is hot to touch. 15.
OPERATING CLAMSHELL BASKET LOADING The procedure outlined below illustrates the loading process for chicken pieces. Other food products should be loaded in a similar manner. Note opening in center of shelves which is accentuated to show importance of not packing products in too tightly, thus restricting cooking oil flow. OPEN FRYING Load basket shelves from top down, starting at shelf #2, then #3, etc. (do not use shelf #1 when cooking products that may float out of basket–shelf #1 is basket lid).
OPERATING 1 2 3 4 5 FIGURE 5 Four head clamshell basket would be loaded similarly to six head basket using shelves #2 through #5 as shown (Figure 5). COOKING - OPEN FRYING NOTE: Your cooking procedure may be specified to you through franchise agreement (or otherwise); if so, disregard the following. Refer to Use and Care Warnings, Pages 3 and 4, regardless of procedure followed. Below are procedures that can be used when OPEN frying in an OPEN or PRESSURE fryer.
OPERATING 5. DANGER: When DROP signal comes on, use safety gloves and basket drain hook to lower basket slowly into hot cooking oil (Figure 7). 6. Press channel button to begin timer countdown. 7. Basket Removal At the end of the cook cycle (time at 00:00 and display showing )a buzzer will sound indicating that the basket can be removed from the fryer. Cancel the buzzer by pressing the channel button. FIGURE 7 DANGER: When signal comes on press channel button to cancel buzzer.
OPERATING COOKING - PRESSURE FRYING NOTE: Your cooking procedure may be specified to you through franchise agreement (or otherwise); if so, disregard the following.

Check Oil Level to see that it is between the Maximum and Minimum lines in the cookpot (See Figure 11). heater coils FIGURE 11 3. Prepare Product (cut, dip, bread, etc.) 4.
OPERATING 7. OPENING LID - at the end of the cook cycle (timer at 00:00 and display showing ,a buzzer will sound indicating that the lid can be opened and the basket can be removed from the fryer. Cancel the buzzer by pressing the channel button. DANGER: This fryer contains hot liquids under pressure. Release can cause severe burns or death. To safely open lid: FIGURE 14 A. Complete cook cycle (Display at and buzzer sounds. B.
DAILY CARE DAILY CARE CAUTION: Prior to using appliance for the first time, perform the daily cleaning procedure listed below. Most of the following Daily Cleaning Procedures apply to both OPEN and PRESSURE fryers. Those that apply to PRESSURE fryers only are specified as such. NOTE: Emptying the collector and filtering may have to be done at some point during the day, depending upon how many rounds are cooked and how much breading builds up in the collector.
DAILY CARE 5. CAUTION: Wearing safety gloves, with drain valve still open, use displacement tool to force enough cooking oil up and out of drain valve to allow safe removal of collector (Figure 21). 6. Place metal tray or container under open collector area. 7. Close Drain Valve 8. CAUTION: Wearing safety gloves, remove collector with basket drain hook (Figure 22). 9. Remove and Clean Collector Gasket Note: Gasket life may be prolonged by doing the following: 10.

Wash Accessories (using hot water only) including collector (clean gasket groove), gasket, heat plate, utensils, basket, etc., at sink. Wipe dry. 14. DANGER: Don’t splash water on outside of fryer or wash outside of fryer with hose.
DAILY CARE Cleaning Lid Instructions 1. Remove lid from fryer and disassemble components as shown below. Remove the retainer from the lid valve before removing the lid lock and handlebar (the lid lock will help to hold the lid valve while unscrewing the retainer). CAUTION: Do not submerge the pressure gauge (if supplied) or the pressure relief valve (if supplied) in water. Do not attempt to remove the pressure gauge from the lid. Do not remove the pressure relief valve from the lid.

TROUBLESHOOTING AQUALERT Aqualert description: Aqualert is software built into the Collectramatic® fryer controls that automatically detects the presence of water in the cookpot and prevents the fryer from being used. Aqualert is included in all electronically controlled fryers with Winston-manufactured controls. Aqualert works by sensing the rate of the rise in temperature of a liquid inside the fryer cookpot. Water heats up more slowly than cooking oil.
TROUBLESHOOTING WARNING: This appliance utilizes electrical voltages that have the potential to produce fatal electrical shocks; utilizes electrical oil heaters that can cause painful and scarring burns; and emits hot vapors that have the potential for painful burns. To avoid, have appliance installed only by licensed electrician and serviced only by trained servicers. Make this page available to the servicer.
