OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. CLEAN KETTLE thoroughly before using. Remove baskets and crumb tray. Clean protective
oil from interior of kettle with warm water & mild detergent. Drain through valve in bottom and
rinse thoroughly with clear water and dry completely before filling with oil.
2. DRAIN VALVE - Make certain it is closed before adding fat.
3. ADD FAT -
Model 615FD/630FD - A fat level line on the rear of the kettle will guide you in determining the
minimum fat level (12" fryers have a 15 lb. (6.8kg) fat capacity, 24" fryers have a 30 lb. (13.6kg)
fat capacity). If solid fat is used, pack the solid fat carefully to the sides and bottom of the kettle
before turning the temperature control knob to the "ON" position.
Model 404D - Keep level of fat 2" (5cm) above tubes. Kettle holds approximately 18 lbs. (8.2kg)
of fat. If solid fat is used, melt the solid fat before filling the fryer. Never attempt to use solid
shortening to fill kettle.
A higher fat level can be used when frying bulky foods, such as chicken or fish cakes. The level
should be chosen carefully so that the foaming action does not spill out of the kettle.
4. Turn the valve knob to "ON" position.
5. TEMPERATURE CONTROL - The thermostat is a combination switch and heat control. The
"OFF" position will turn off the electric current which closes the gas valve. With the fat in the
kettle (Note: On models 615FD/630FD, solid fat must be carefully packed to the sides and
bottom of the kettle) turn the thermostat knob to 200° F (93°C).
6. CRUMB TRAY Model 615FD/630FD - Place the crumb tray in the kettle when the fat has melted.
BASKET RACK Model 404D - Place the rack before adding fat.
7. Turn the thermostat knob to the desired frying temperature. DO NOT FRY MORE FOOD PER
BATCH THAN YOU CAN FRY EFFICIENTLY - Too much food per batch causes excessive
temperature drop, wastes fat, and nothing is gained in capacity.
8. LOWERING BASKET - When the fat has reached the proper temperature, lower the basket
and food slowly into the fat. When moist food is lowered too quickly into hot fat, the fat will foam
and spatter excessively.
9. DRAIN - After the food has finished frying, raise the baskets and hang them on the handles of
the kettle. Allow excess fat to drain back into the kettle.
10. IDLING - During idle periods, lower the temperature setting of the thermostat to approximately
200° F (93°C). It is not necessary to maintain full cooking temperature during idle periods, for
the fat can be reheated quickly to the desired temperature. This procedure will result in longer
fat life and less gas consumption.
NOTE: See the Handy Frying Chart for recommended temperature and time required to properly
fry various foods as well as procedures and coating suggestions.
11. TO TURN THE FRYER OFF - Turn the thermostat dial knob counterclockwise to the "OFF"
position. The pilot will remain lit.
12. STRAINING FAT - Wait until fat is warm before straining fat. Slip filter bag over end of drain
valve nipple and tie in place with a bow knot so it will not slide off. Place a receptacle under bag
and slowly open drain valve. When the kettle is empty, use a small pot to pour hot oil vigorously
around sides, tubes and bottom of kettle to wash out crumbs, etc. Continue to pour until all
crumbs, etc. are washed into filter bag. Remove filter bag and wash for next use. Close drain
valve, and pour fat back into kettle.
13. TO DRAIN KETTLE - Turn thermostat dial to the "OFF" position. Remove baskets. Drain fat
from kettle only when fat is warm and liquid. A cold fryer heated up will not drain properly. Use
a stick, if necessary, to stir up cold fat in bottom of kettle. Remove crumb tray.
14. CLEANING THE EXTERIOR - The exterior surfaces can be kept clean and attractive by regularly
wiping with a clean soft cloth. Any discoloration can be removed with a non-abrasive cleaner.
15. REASSEMBLING - After the kettle has been cleaned and the fryer body wiped off, replace
crumb tray.
16. OVERNIGHT SHUTDOWN - Turn knob on combination control to the "PILOT" position. This will
maintain the safety pilot and also prevent any gas from reaching the main burner. To activate
unit, turn the combination control knob to the "ON" position.
17. COMPLETE SHUTDOWN - Turn valve knob to "OFF" position.
