Cleaning

Burn Risk To avoid severe burns, allow the unit to cool before cleaning.

NOTICE -

To avoid equipment damage, do not clean stainless steel with abrasive tools, abrasive cleaners or corrosive chemicals.

NOTICE -

To avoid component damage, do not use pressurized water or a steam cleaner to clean unit.

1. Turn all controls to OFF and disconnect the electrical power supplied to the unit.

2. Remove the discs and rod assembly and take to a sink to clean them thoroughly. (See Installing of Discs, Rods, and Spits.)

   If door of unit is partially open it is designed to close automatically. To keep door open, position door fully open.

   Be sure to keep groove in the rod clean of debris. The retaining ring must fit securely in the groove to keep rod assembly from falling and damaging unit, or causing personal injury.

   

3. Pull drain pan partially out and unscrew drain plug to discard grease into another container.

   

4. Remove drain pan, vent panels (side vents first), back panel, and drip trays from unit, and take to a sink to clean thoroughly.

   The top vent panel (covering air heaters), is slotted to the right on the SCR-8 and to the left on the SCR-6.

   

5. Loosen the thumb screw on the blower fan blade and pull blade from shaft. Then, take fan blade to a sink to clean thoroughly.

NOTICE -

When reinstalling fan blade, be sure the offset shaft matches up, and the thumb screw is tightened snug, but not too tight. If the fan is not installed properly, the fan could hit the vent cover and damage to the fan could result.

This fryer must be installed and used in a way that water does not contact the oil which can cause splashing and boiling over of oil and steam leading to personal injury; excludes normal product moisture. Burn risk! Do not move the fryer or filter drain pan while containing hot oil. Personal injury or serious burns can result from splashing hot oil.
