4.  Lift  the  tank  out  of  the  fryer  for  cleaning.  If  a 

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.

INSTALLATION Continued

5.  Replace the tank in the fryer. If the tank has the 

optional  drain  valve,  make  sure  that  this  valve  is 

tightly closed.

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

Filling the Tank

Once the tank and elements have been cleaned the tank 

can be filled with oil.
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.  If hydrogenated or solid frying compound is used, 

measure 30 lbs (13.6 kg). Pack the compound firmly 

around  the  heating  unit.  The  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.  For  optimum  frying  compound  life,  it  has  been 

recommended by the manufactures of the compound 

limit the maximum operating temperature to 375°F 

(190°C)  on  S18F  models  and  350°F  (177°C)  on 

S18SF models.

Operating Instructions

The S18 series fryers are equipped with a temperature 

limiting safety system. To start the fryer operating:
1.  Turn the thermostat to the “OFF” position.
2.  Lift  the  toggle  switch  to  the  start  position 

(momentarily up).

3.  Release the switch. It will return to the run position. 

The 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). The 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.
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.
