NOTE: It is important to keep the cooking oil clean.
e frequency of change depends on the amount of use
and the type of products cooked.
For proper operation, the information on the data plate
of your new equipment must match your electrical
supply.
INSTALLATION
Your new equipment must be installed and adjusted by
a competent person in accordance with the law. Failure
to install appliances correctly could lead to prosecution.
IT is in your own interests and that of safety to ensure
that the law is complied with.
Ventilation
e area in which the appliance is installed must be
adequately ventilated to provide air for removal of
steam, heat generated by the appliance, etc. the use of
a mechanical extract system should be considered and
conform to local codes.
Your Garland Dealer is well qualified to provide this
service. Periodic inspections by your dealer or a qualified
service company are recommended to check temperatures
and to ensure moving parts are operative. Wherever
possible avoid overheating idle equipment, as this is the
primary cause for increased service cost.
Preparation Before Use
After the fryer has been properly installed and checked
for operation, it will be necessary to clean the protective
coating from the tank as follows:
1. Turn the power service disconnect switch off.
2. Remove baskets from the fry tank.
Location
e fryer should be installed on a firm smooth and
level floor designed to withstand the weight of the fully
laden appliance. Adequate clearance must be provided
for servicing, ventilation and proper operation. e range
must be kept clear of combustible material. Note the
minimum clearances marked on each appliance.
3. Lift the element handle until the heating elements
are in full raised position.

special fry tank cleaner is used, carefully follow the
manufacture’s instructions for use. A soap, vinegar
or baking soda solution may be used for cleaning
the tank. Rinse the tank thoroughly with clean, hot
water and dry completely.
6. With the circuit breakers and toggle switch on the
fryer in the “OFF” position, turn on the power at
the service disconnect box.
OPERATION
Operating Instructions
Filling the Tank
e S18 series fryers are equipped with a temperature
limiting safety system. To start the fryer operating:
Once the tank and elements have been cleaned the tank
can be filled with oil.
1. Turn the thermostat to the “OFF” position.
1. If Liquid frying compound is used, fill the tank to
the ‘Full’ mark stamped on the inside of the tank.
Do not over fill the tank.
2. Lift the toggle switch to the start position
(momentarily up).
2. If hydrogenated or solid frying compound is used,
measure 30 lbs (13.6 kg). Pack the compound firmly
around the heating unit. e elements must be
completely covered with compound. Start the fryer
and set the thermostat to 250°F (121°C). Operate at
this temperature until the compound is completely
melted. Operating at higher temperatures can
scorch the frying compound.
3. Release the switch. It will return to the run position.
e green indicator lamp should be illuminated.
4. Turn the thermostat dial to the desired
temperature.
High Temperature Cutoff/Reset
Your Garland Fryer is equipped with a protective
secondary thermostat. If the operating thermostat fails
to control the temperature, the secondary (Hi-Limit)
thermostat will take over. It will cut off power to the
heating elements if the frying compound reaches a
temperature greater than 430°F (221°C). e system
cannot be reset until the frying compound drops in
temperature by approximately 50°F (28°C). Repeating
the starting procedure can reset the system.
3. For optimum frying compound life, it has been
recommendedbythemanufacturesofthecompound
limit the maximum operating temperature to 375°F
(190°C) on S18F models and 350°F (177°C) on
S18SF models.
If this condition occurs, it could indicate that the
operating thermostat has become damaged. A qualified
service technician should check the fryer. Continued
operation of the fryer in this condition will deteriorate the
frying compound and degrade the product quality.

Suggestions for Quality Fried Products
Clean equipment is vital to the quality of fried foods.
Fresh uncontaminated frying compounds produce better
fried foods.
1. Taste the frying compound once a day. Your patrons
do, when they eat the product.
2. Filter the frying compound daily. Use a proper filter
and cone or a filter system.
3. Drain or dry foods before frying. Excessive moisture
and water breaks down frying compound.
4. Do not salt or otherwise season food over the fryer.

and accelerates its deterioration.
5. Do not shake breaded items over the fryer.

Servicing
Stainless steel should be cleaned using a mild detergent,
a soft cloth and hot water. If it is necessary to use a non-
metallic scouring pad, always rub in the direction of the
grain in the metal to prevent scratching. Wash a small
area at a time and rinse the washed area with a clean
sponge dipped into a disinfectant and wipe dry with a
soft clean cloth before it can dry.
To ensure efficient and safe operation of the appliance it
is recommended that servicing is carried out at regular
intervals, the frequency of which will vary, depending
on the installation conditions and usage. Usually once
per year is adequate.
Competent persons in accordance with the law must
carry out servicing.
Use only stainless steel, wood or plastic tools to scrape
off heavy deposits of grease or oil. Do not use ordinary
steel scrapers or knives as particles of iron may become
embedded and rust.
