4.2 Boil-Out Procedure (cont.)
A. Pour cleaning solution into the frypot and add water to the bottom OIL LEVEL line scribed
in the back of the frypot.
B. Operating thermostat-equipped fryers: Set dial/temperature controller to 225°F (107ºC), just
above that of boiling water.
C. Filtration/Boil-Mode equipped fryers: Turn fryer power switch to "ON". Press the fryer-
reset switch (if applicable). Turn the boil-out switch "ON".
CAUTION
If the pilot and main burner go out, the fryer(s) MUST be left completely shut down at
least 5 minutes before lighting.
D. The main burner will ignite.
E. When the solution nears boiling point, reset the temperature controller to 200° (93ºC).
F. The burners should shut off just as the water starts to boil.
CAUTION
Do not leave fryer unattended. The boil-out solution may foam and overflow if fryer is
left unattended. Press ON/OFF switch to the "OFF" position (Filtration/Boil-Mode
equipped fryers) or reduce temperature (Operating Thermostat equipped fryers) to
control this condition.
G. The burners will heat the boil-out solution to a simmer. Simmer the solution for
approximately 45 minutes. Wearing protective gloves, scrub the sides of the frypot and the
tubes with the L-shaped Teflon brush, being careful not to disturb the temperature sensing
probes and the high-limit thermostat.
H. Do not allow the water level to decrease below the bottom OIL LEVEL line in frypot during
boil-out operation.
WARNING
Water or boil-out solution MUST not be allowed to drain into the filter pan or filter
system. Irreversible damage will result if water is allowed into the system.
I. Operating Thermostat equipped fryers: After boil out is complete, turn the thermostat dial to
"OFF". Filtration/Boil-Mode equipped fryers:
After boil out is complete, turn the boil-out
and fryer switches to "OFF". Drain the solution from the frypot. Place a metal stockpot of
sufficient size to safely hold the entire contents of the frypot under the drain port to collect
the water/boil-out solution. Do not allow water or boil-out solution to drain into the filter
pan. The filter pump is not designed for water operation, and will be irreparably damaged
(see warning statement above).
