Initial Cleaning
When the fryer is shipped, many of its parts are covered with a thin coat of oil for protection. Before the
fryer is ready for cooking it must be cleaned. This will remove the oil coating and any foreign matter that
may have accumulated during storage and shipment. Perform the cleaning as described below.
a. Fill the vessel with water.
b. Turn the fryer gas valve knob to the “ON” position. Allow the fryer to bring the water to a
low boil and add one packet of Pitco fryer cleaner or a mild, low sudsing detergent and
allow water to continue to boil for a minute, making sure water does not boil over.
c. Turn the gas valve knob to the “PILOT” position and allow fryer to soak with the hot
water for 15 minutes.
d. Using the fryer cleaning brush, scrub the inside of the fryer to remove protective coating.
e. When cleaning is complete, turn the gas valve knob to the “OFF” position and drain the
water into a container suitable for hot water and dispose of it.
f. When the tank has cooled, rinse it thoroughly with cool water. Continue to rinse the tank
until the cleaner has been rinsed, thoroughly from the tank.
g. Using a clean dry cloth, wipe out all of the water. Be very thorough removing the water,
because any residual water will cause hot oil to splatter out of the fryer. Close the drain
valve and remove container.
h.
Now that the tank is clean, you are ready to fill and operate the fryer. Refer to
instructions on adding shortening
to the fryer.
.
Daily Cleaning
Should be performed to maintain peak operation and appearance.
a. Wipe up any shortening that spills onto the exterior of the fryer. This should be done with
a clean soft cloth while the oil is still warm.
b. Use warm water with a mild detergent to clean surfaces. Be careful not to get water in
the shortening and to remove any detergent from the fry tank.
c. Use a nonabrasive scouring powder or pad to clean stains if necessary.
d. Perform the weekly boil out cleaning of your fryer described below.
NOTICE
Do not leave the fryer unattended during cleaning. Never let the water level go below the "Min Level" mark on the
back of the tank
CAUTION
Mild steel tanks must be wiped down/coated with oil to keep the tank from rusting.
