Maintenance Tips

• Daily clean the fry tanks: After turning the thermostat off and allowing oil to cool slightly, drain oil and flush out food particles and sediment; wipe the tank with a damp cloth and warm, mild soap for hygiene and efficiency.

• Perform a weekly boil‑out: With oil drained, fill the tank with a commercial boil‑out solution and simmer per product instructions to dissolve stubborn grease and carbon buildup; rinse thoroughly and dry before refilling.

• Clean exterior surfaces: Wipe stainless steel exterior daily with warm, soapy water and dry with a soft cloth; avoid abrasive cleaners or metallic pads to protect the finish.

• Filter and replace oil: Regularly filter in‑use oil and replace it per kitchen usage (e.g., weekly or as contamination increases) to maintain food quality and reduce thermal stress.

• Inspect burners & gas lines: Periodically check burners, pilot, and gas connections for cleanliness and proper flame; clear any debris that may impair efficiency or safety.

• Check drain valves: Ensure drain valves operate smoothly and seals are clean, tightening or servicing as needed to prevent leakage and simplify oil changes.
