SYSTEM TEST
1. Make certain the drain valve below the bottom of the kettle is in the CLOSED position. Pour liquid
shortening into the kettle to the MINIMUM line (Fig. 19). Heat will cause the oil to expand and
reach the MAXIMUM line when hot. Use ONLY liquid, all-vegetable, hydrogenated shortening in
the pressure fryer. Never use drippings, lard, suet, or olive oil.
Fig. 19

exhaust hood, all three hood filters must be in place.
