Extended Product Information

FAQs

Does this fryer require a hardwired connection?

No, it comes with a standard 13A plug for convenient plug-and-play installation.

How often should I change the oil?

Oil life depends on usage and the type of food; however, you should filter daily and change when the oil appears dark or produces smoke at low temperatures.

Can I wash the head in a dishwasher?

No, the head contains electrical components and must only be wiped clean with a damp cloth.

What is the maximum oil capacity?

The fryer has a total capacity of 16 litres, with a recommended usable oil capacity of 11.5 litres.

What safety measures are included?

The unit features an EGO high-limit automatic thermostat and a micro-switch that cuts power if the head is lifted during operation.

Troubleshooting

Unit will not heat up

Check that the head is correctly seated and the micro-switch safety cut-out is engaged. Verify the power supply.

Oil taking too long to reach temperature

Ensure the tank is not overfilled and the heating element is free of carbonized food debris.

Drain tap is leaking

Ensure the tap handle is fully closed and the internal seal is free of food particles.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Integrated drain tap significantly reduces cleaning time
  • Plug-and-play installation via standard 13A plug
  • Compact footprint ideal for countertop use
  • High-limit safety thermostat prevents fire hazards

Cons

  • Requires a dedicated power circuit to avoid tripping
  • Heavy stainless steel construction makes it bulky to move for cleaning
  • 16-litre total capacity takes up significant counter space

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Place the fryer on a flat, heat-resistant, and non-flammable surface. Ensure there is at least 10cm of clearance on all sides to allow for proper airflow around the casing. Because this unit is supplied with a standard 13A plug, ensure the power outlet is rated for this draw and is not shared with other high-power kitchen equipment.

Compatibility

This unit is intended for professional use in indoor catering environments. It is not suitable for domestic kitchen circuits that may be overwhelmed by sustained high-wattage usage.

Care

Always allow the oil to cool completely before draining or cleaning. Use the drain tap to remove oil and wipe the stainless steel basin with a food-safe degreaser. The control head is removable, which allows for easier access to the heating element for debris removal. Regularly check the oil levels to ensure the element remains fully submerged during use.
