Turning On The Fryer; Turning Off The Fryer; Extended Shutdown; Basic Frying Instructions - BakeMax BMF40-90NAT Mode D'emploi

TURNING ON THE FRYER

1. Set the temperature knob to desired temperature.
2. After the set temperature is reached, the thermostat shuts off the gas flow to the burners.
3. The pilot remains lit. The burners cycle on and off, to maintain the temperature at the set point.

TURNING OFF THE FRYER

1. Turn the thermostat OFF.
2. To keep the pilot lit, turn the gas valve to "L" in Pilot. {only the pilot stays lit in this position}
3. To shut off all gas to the system, including the pilot, turn the gas valve knob to OFF.

EXTENDED SHUTDOWN

1. Turn the thermostat knob to OFF.
2. Push in the pilot knob and turn to OFF.
3. Thoroughly drain the fryer. Refer to DRAINING THE FRYER.
4. Clean the fryer according to CLEANING.
5. Turn off the main gas shutoff valve.
A complete fryer boil-out is suggested after any extended shutdown before bringing it back on-line.
NOTE: If the pilot is extinguished, a control safety sensor (thermopile) cuts off the gas supply to it.
 Set the desired temperature and allow shortening to heat up to that temperature.
 Fry items that are of similar size to ensure equal doneness.
 Drain or wipe dry raw or wet foods to minimize splatter when lowering into hot oil.
 Add fresh shortening as needed top maintain the shortening level between the recommended
(embossed) minimum and maximum fill level (volume) lines.
FRY BASKET GUIDELINES
 Don't overfill baskets. (See table for recommended basket capacities below) Carefully lower each
basket into the hot oil to minimize turbulence and splatter to meet the customer demand.
 When frying doughnuts and fritters, turn product only once during frying.
 When cooking French fries or onion rings, shake the basket several times.
 Batter-covered foods should be dropped carefully, one by one, into shortening or basket (If a basket is
used, first dip the basket into the oil to reduce batter-build up on basket surfaces.)
 When frying is completed, remove basket or product. Hang basket on the rear basket hanger allowing
he excess oil to flow back into the fry vat (kettle/pot/tank).
FRY BASKET CAPACITY
 For the 40090 and 50120 models: Recommended maximum pounds per basket of frozen French fries
are 1.5 lbs. (0.7 kg). {NEVER put more than 2 lb of frozen fries into any one basket}
 For Model 70150 fryer, its recommended maximum frozen fry load is 3 pounds per basket (1.4 kg).
