Cleaning; Daily; Weekly Or As Required - Vulcan-Hart GRC35 ML-052083 Installation And Operation Manual

WARNING: HOT OIL AND PARTS CAN CAUSE BURNS. USE CARE WHEN OPERATING, CLEANING
AND SERVICING THE FRYER.

DAILY

• Clean all exterior surfaces of your fryer at least once daily.
• Use a damp cloth with warm water and a mild soap or detergent.
• Rinse thoroughly, then polish with a soft, dry cloth.
• Keep the fryer exterior clean and free of accumulated grease to prevent stubborn stains from
forming. If regular cleaning is neglected, grease will be burned on and discolorations may form.
• Remove discolorations by washing with any detergent or soap and water.
• Use a self-soaping nonmetallic scouring pad for particularly stubborn discolorations.
• Always rub with the grain of the stainless steel.
• Do not use a scouring pad or harsh cleaners on the keypad or display area.
• Cleaning instructions for the KleenScreen filtering system are covered in a separate manual.
Follow the instructions accordingly.

WEEKLY OR AS REQUIRED

1. Drain shortening.
NOTE: Fryers equipped with the KleenScreen filtering system are covered in a separate
manual. Follow the instructions for draining the tank.
2. Flush out scraps and sediment with a small amount of warm shortening.
3. Allow the tank to drain thoroughly.
4. Close the drain valve and fill the tank with a noncorrosive, grease-dissolving commercial

manufacturer's instructions. Monitor boiling to prevent overflow.

BOIL. Fryer will automatically set the boil temperature.
6. Drain the cleaning solution from the tank.
NOTE: On fryers equipped with the KleenScreen filtering system, do not drain cleaning
solution into the pump or filter system. See the KleenScreen manual for more information.
7. Close the drain valve and refill the tank with water.
8. Add 1 cup (235 mL) of vinegar to neutralize alkaline left by the cleaner.
9. Bring the solution to a boil, do not allow to boil over, and let stand for a few minutes.
