Operating & Cleaning Guidelines

1. Setup & Commissioning: Ensure a licensed gas fitter connects the Natural Gas line and a licensed electrician hardwires the 230V ignition power supply. Level the unit using the adjustable legs (850 mm to 900 mm).

2. Filling & Heating: Ensure the front drain tap is completely closed. Fill the tank with commercial frying oil to the marked level indicator (20 litres). Turn on power and gas, ignite the pilot, and set the thermostat dial to your target temperature (60°C–195°C).

3. Daily Oil Filtration & Cleaning: At the end of service, switch off heat and allow oil to cool to a safe handling temperature (~100°C). Position a heat-safe oil filter container beneath the drain tap and open the valve to drain. Wipe down the stainless steel tank and replace clean oil.
