OPERATION Place the pans in the fryer body. Place the head units in position and the element guards over the element in the bottom of each pan. Fill the pans with the required volume of oil. Refer to the safety note below regarding “solid” oil.
WARNING: Always be careful when cooking frozen or over-wet food products as these items are more prone to surge-boiling (where the “froth” on top of the oil increases and can lead to an overflow of boiling oil and water) and are more likely to result in the “spitting” of hot oil. It is always safer to fryer smaller batches of product (never more than 0.5Kg) as this will reduce the surging effect.

Drain food well Vigorously shake the basket of cooked food twice and hang it for at least 20 seconds over the hot fryer. This returns some oil to the fryer. Look for signs of oil degradation If the oil is damaged (e.g. dark colour, smoking) discard it all. ...
