NOTE: BLUE SEAL 'Deep Fryers’ can be used with both oil and shortening.
1. Before filling the tank, always check that the drain valve(s) behind the access door is (are) closed. A
locking slide is provided on these valves and this should always be locked in position during use.
2. Ensure that the elements are swung down into the tank(s).
OIL - Carefully fill the fryer tank until the lower ‘Fill Level’ mark is reached.
Set the thermostat to the required operating temperature, the oil will expand as heated and will reach
the upper level mark when the oil is hot (180 - 190°C).
The E43 single tank fryer will hold 27 to 29 litres of oil.
The E44 twin tank fryer will hold 14 litres of oil per pan.
SHORTENING - Ideally shortening should be pre-melted prior to putting it into the tank. This is
normally done in a suitable vessel on a boiling table burner(s). The liquefied shortening can
then be poured into the tank until it reaches the 'FILL LEVEL' mark.
The E43 single tank fryer will hold 22 - 23kg of shortening.
The E44 twin tank fryer will hold 11kg of shortening per tank.
NOTE: When pre-melting shortening, only heat the shortening until it is just liquefied. Do not bring
the shortening up to high temperature as handling of hot shortening is dangerous.
If pre-melting of shortening is not possible, carefully cut the shortening into small pieces and
pack below, all around and above the elements, ensuring that the element can fully lower to
operate the element tilt microswitch otherwise the fryer will not operate.
E43 and E44; - Set the tank control thermostat to 120°C and switch the appliance ‘ON’ for 30
seconds and then ‘OFF’ for 1 minute. Repeat the cycle until all the shortening is melted enough to
apply full power to the heating elements. To speed up this process, break up the shortening and stir
carefully during the melting process.
NOTE: Running the elements continuously will cause the shortening in contact with the tank to
overheat, resulting in premature oil breakdown. Never allow the shortening to smoke while
melting as this indicates that the temperature is too high. If the shortening starts smoking,
increase the ‘Off’ intervals of the elements.
