BIGLA30 SERIES GEN II LOV™GAS FRYER
CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION
NOTE: The Frymaster BIGLA30 fryer requires a start-up, demonstration and training
before normal restaurant operations can begin.
1.1
General
Read the instructions in this manual thoroughly before attempting to operate this equipment. This manual covers
all configurations of models and BIGLA30 LOV™ fryers. Models designated BIGLA30 are equipped with Foot-
Print Pro built-in filtration systems. The fryers in this model family have most parts in common, and when
discussed as a group, will be referred to as “LOV™ fryers.
Although similar in appearance to the BIPH55 McDonald’s fryers, the BIGLA30 LOV™ fryers feature a low oil
volume frypot, auto top-off and an automatic intermittent filtration unit. The Euro-Look design incorporates a
rounded topcap and a large round drain which ensures that fries and other debris will be washed into the filter pan.
The BIGLA30 LOV™ fryers are controlled with an M3000 computer. Fryers in this series come in full- or split-
vat arrangements, and can be purchased in batteries of up to five vats.
LOV™ high-efficiency gas fryers employ a unique infrared burner system that uses up to 43% less energy to cook
the same volume as conventional open-burner fryers.
LOV™ gas fryers are of an open-frypot design with no tubes, which makes cleaning the stainless frypot quick and
easy.
Heating is supplied by a pair of infrared burner assemblies mounted on each side of the frypot. A dedicated
blower mounted on the front of the frypot supplies combustion air for the burners. LOV™ Gas fryers can be
configured for natural gas, propane (LP), or manufactured gas, as required by the customer.
Each frypot is equipped with a temperature probe for precise temperature control.
All fryers in this series require an external source of AC electrical power. Units can be configured for voltages
ranging from 100 VAC to 240 VAC.
BIGLA30 LOV™ fryers are shipped completely assembled. All fryers are shipped with a package of standard
accessories. Each fryer is adjusted, tested, and inspected at the factory before crating for shipment.
This appliance is only for professional use and shall be used by qualified personnel only, as defined in
Section 1.6.

Qualified, licensed, and/or authorized installation or service personnel, as defined in Section 1.6 of this
manual, should perform all installation and service on Frymaster equipment.
Conversion of this appliance from one type of gas to another should only be performed by qualified, li-
censed, and/or authorized installation or service personnel as defined in Section 1.6 of this manual.
Failure to use qualified, licensed, and/or authorized installation or service personnel (as defined in Section
1.6 of this manual) to install, convert to another gas type or otherwise service this equipment will void the
Frymaster warranty and may result in damage to the equipment or injury to personnel.
Where conflicts exist between instructions and information in this manual and local or national codes or
regulations, installation and operation shall comply with the codes or regulations in force in the country in
which the equipment is installed.
Service may be obtained by contacting your local Frymaster Dean Factory Authorized Service Agency.
DANGER
Building codes prohibit a fryer with its open tank of hot oil being installed beside an
open flame of any type, including those of broilers and ranges.
Upon arrival, inspect the fryer carefully for visible or concealed damage. (See Shipping Damage Claim Proce-
dure in Section 1.7 of this manual.)
2.1.1 Clearance and Ventilation
The fryer(s) must be installed with a 6” (150 mm) clearance at both sides and back when installed adjacent to
combustible construction; no clearance is required when installed adjacent to noncombustible construction. A
minimum of 24” (600 mm) clearance should be provided at the front of the fryer.
WARNING
Do not block the area around the base or under the fryers.
DANGER
No structural material on the fryer should be altered or removed to accommodate
placement of the fryer under a hood. Questions? Call the Frymaster Dean Service
Hotline at 1-800-551-8633.
One of the most important considerations of efficient fryer operation is ventilation. Make sure the fryer is installed
so that products of combustion are removed efficiently, and that the kitchen ventilation system does not produce
drafts that interfere with burner operation.
2-1
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
The fryer flue opening must not be placed close to the intake of the exhaust fan, and the fryer must never have its
flue extended in a “chimney” fashion. An extended flue will change the combustion characteristics of the fryer,
causing longer recovery time. It also frequently causes delayed ignition. To provide the airflow necessary for
good combustion and burner operation, the areas surrounding the fryer front, sides, and rear must be kept clear and
unobstructed.
DANGER
This appliance must be installed with sufficient ventilation to prevent the occurrence
of unacceptable concentrations of substances harmful to the health of personnel in
the room in which it is installed.
Fryers must be installed in an area with an adequate air supply and adequate ventilation. Adequate distances must
be maintained from the flue outlet of the fryer to the lower edge of the ventilation filter bank. Filters should be
installed at an angle of 45º. Place a drip tray beneath the lowest edge of the filter. For U.S. installation, NFPA
standard No. 96 states, “A minimum distance of 18 in. (450 mm) should be maintained between the flue outlet and
the lower edge of the grease filter.” Frymaster recommends that the minimum distance be 24 in. (600 mm) from
the flue outlet to the bottom edge of the filter when the appliance consumes more than 120,000 BTU per hour.
For installations in the United States, information on construction and installation of ventilating hoods can be
found in the NFPA standard cited above. A copy of the standard may be obtained from the National Fire
Protection Association, Battery March Park, Quincy, MA 02269.
2.1.2 National Code Requirements
The type of gas for which the fryer is equipped is stamped on the data plate attached to the inside of the fryer door.
Connect a fryer stamped “NAT” only to natural gas, those stamped “PRO” only to propane gas, and those stamped
“MFG” only to manufactured gas.
Installation shall be made with a gas connector that complies with national and local codes, and, where applicable,
CE codes. Quick-disconnect devices, if used, shall likewise comply with national, local, and, if applicable, CE
codes. In the absence of local codes, installation must conform to the national Fuel Gas Code, ANSI
Z223.1/NFPA 54 or the Natural Gas and Propane Installation code, CSA B149.1, as applicable including:
1.
2.
The appliance and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected form the gas supply piping system
during any pressure testing of the system at test pressures in excess of ½ psi (3.5 kPa).
The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff
valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at trest pressures equal to or less than ½
psi (3.5 kPa).
2.1.3 Electrical Grounding Requirements

DANGER
The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its in-
dividual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping
system at test pressures equal to or less than ½ PSI (3.45 kPa, 13.84 inches W.C.)
DANGER
“Dry-firing” your unit will cause damage to the frypot and can cause a fire. Always
ensure that cooking oil or water is in the frypot before firing the unit.
DANGER
All connections must be sealed with a joint compound suitable for the gas being
used and all connections must be tested with a solution of soapy water before light-
ing any pilots.
Never use matches, candles, or any other ignition source to check for leaks. If gas
odors are detected, shut off the gas supply to the appliance at the main shut-off
valve and immediately contact the local gas company or an authorized service agen-
cy for service.
The size of the gas line used for installation is very important. If the line is too small, the gas pressure at the
burner manifold will be low. This may cause slow recovery and delayed ignition. The incoming gas supply line
should be a minimum of 1½” (38 mm) in diameter. Refer to the chart on the following page for the minimum sizes
of connection piping.

CE Standard
Required airflow for the combustion air supply is 2m3/h per kW.
1. Connect the quick-disconnect hose to the fryer quick-disconnect fitting under the front of the fryer and to the
building gas line.
NOTE: Some fryers are configured for a rigid connection to the gas supply line. These units are connected to
the gas supply line at the rear of the unit.
When using thread compound, use very small amounts on male threads only. Use a pipe thread compound
that is not affected by the chemical action of LP gases (Loctite™ PST56765 Sealant is one such compound).
DO NOT apply compound to the first two threads. Doing so may allow some of the compound to enter the
gas stream, resulting in clogging of burner orifices and/or the control valve.
2. Open the gas supply to the fryer and check all piping, fittings, and gas connections for leaks. A soap solution
should be used for this purpose.

After Fryers are Positioned at the Frying Station
DANGER
No structural material on the fryer should be altered or removed to accommodate placement of the
fryer under a hood. Questions? Call the Frymaster Dean Service Hotline at 1-800-551-8633.
1. Once the fryer has been positioned at the frying station, use a carpenter’s level placed across the top of the
frypot to verify that the unit is level, both side-to-side and front-to-back.
To level fryers, adjust the casters being careful to ensure the fryer(s) are at the proper height in the frying sta-
tion.
When the fryer is leveled in its final position, install the restraints provided by the KES to limit its movement
so that it does not depend on or transmit stress to the connection. Install the restraints in accordance with the
provided instructions. If the restraints are disconnected for service or other reasons, they must be reconnected
before the fryer is used.
DANGER
Hot oil can cause severe burns. Avoid contact. Under all circumstances, oil must be removed from the
fryer before attempting to move it to avoid spills, falls, and severe burns. Fryers may tip and cause
personal injury if not secured in a stationary position.
DANGER
Adequate means must be provided to limit the movement of this appliance without depending on the
connector and the quick-disconnect device or its associated piping to limit the appliance movement.
2. Clean, and fill frypot(s) with cooking oil. (See Equipment Setup and Shutdown Procedures in Chapter 3.)

3.1
Equipment Setup and Shutdown Procedures
WARNING
The on-site supervisor is responsible for ensuring that operators are made aware of
the inherent hazards of operating a hot oil filtering system, particularly the aspects
of oil filtration, draining and cleaning procedures.
CAUTION
Before lighting the fryer, make sure the fryer is OFF and the frypot drain valves are
closed. Remove the basket support rack(s), if installed, and fill the frypot to the
bottom OIL-LEVEL line.
3.1.1 Setup
WARNING
Never operate this appliance with an empty frypot. The frypot must be filled with wa-
ter or oil before lighting the burners. Failure to do so will damage the frypot and may
cause a fire.
DANGER
Remove all drops of water from the frypot before filling with oil. Failure to do so will
cause spattering of hot liquid when the oil is heated to cooking temperature.
WARNING
The BIGLA30 is not intended to use solid shortening. Use only liquid shortening
with this fryer. The use of solid shortening will clog the top off oil lines. The oil
capacity of the BIGLA30 LOV™ gas fryer is 32 lbs. (3.8 gallons/14.5 liters) at 70°F
(21°C) for a full-vat and 18 lbs. (2.2 gallons/8.33 liters) at 70°F (21°C) for each half of a
dual-vat.
Prior to filling frypots with oil, ensure all drains are closed.
1. Fill the frypot with cooking oil to the bottom OIL LEVEL line located on the rear of the frypot.
This will allow for oil expansion as heat is applied. Do not fill cold oil any higher than the bot-
tom line; overflow may occur as heat expands the oil.
2. Ensure that the power cord(s) is/are plugged into the appropriate receptacle(s). Verify that the
face of the plug is flush with the outlet plate, with no portion of the prongs visible.
3. Ensure that the oil level is at the top OIL LEVEL line when the oil is at its cooking temperature.

3.1.2 Lighting the Fryer
1. Press the computer ON/OFF switch to the OFF position.
For CE Fryers
For Non-CE Fryers
Placing the ON/OFF switch in the OFF
position also turns off the gas valve. Wait five
minutes before continuing with Step 2, which
will also turn on the gas valve.
After placing the ON/OFF switch in the OFF
position, turn the gas valve knob to the OFF
position. Wait 5 minutes, then turn the knob
to the ON postion and proceed with Step 2.
2. Press the computer ON/OFF switch to the ON position.
3. If the burners fail to light, press the ON/OFF switch to the OFF position and wait 60 seconds.
Repeat step 2.
4. The fryer will automatically enter the melt cycle mode if the frypot temperature is below 180ºF
(82ºC) and will display MLT-CYCL alternating with LOW TEMP. (NOTE: During the melt
cycle, the burners will repeatedly fire for a few seconds, then go out for a longer period.) When
the frypot temperature reaches 180ºF (82ºC), the unit will automatically switch to the heating
mode and LOW TEMP is displayed until within 15°F (9°C) of setpoint. The burners will
remain lit until the frypot temperature reaches the programmed cooking temperature. Once the
fryer reaches setpoint, the computer display changes to the product or dashed lines and the fryer
is ready for use.
5. After the burners have been lit for at least 90 seconds, observe the flames through the burner
viewing ports located on each side of the combustion air blower.

BIGLA30 SERIES GEN II LOV™ GAS FRYER
CHAPTER 5: FILTRATION INSTRUCTIONS
5.1
Introduction
The FootPrint Pro filtration system allows the oil in one frypot to be safely and efficiently filtered
while the other frypots in a battery remain in operation.
Section 5.2 covers preparation of the filter system for use. Operation of the system is covered in
Section 5.3.
WARNING
The on-site supervisor is responsible for ensuring that operators are made aware of
the inherent hazards of operating a hot oil filtering system, particularly the aspects
of oil filtration, draining and cleaning procedures.
WARNING
The filter pad or paper MUST be replaced daily.
5.2
Preparing the Filter for Use
1. Pull the filter pan out from the cabinet
and remove the crumb tray, hold-down
ring, filter pad (or paper), and filter
screen. (See Figure 1) Clean all metal
parts with a solution of All Purpose
Concentrate and hot water then dry
thoroughly.
The pan cover must not be removed
except for cleaning, interior access, or to
allow
a
shortening disposal unit
(MSDU) to be positioned under the
drain. If using an MSDU built before
January 2004 see instructions on page 4-
16.
Figure 1
2. Inspect the filter pan connection fitting
to ensure that both O-rings are in good
condition. (See Figure 2)
Inspect the filter
connection fitting
O-rings.

3. Then in reverse order, place the metal filter screen in the center of the bottom of the pan, then lay
a filter pad over the screen, ensuring that the rough side of the pad is up. Make sure that the pad
is in between the embossed ridges of the filter pan. Then position the hold down ring on top of
the pad. If using filter paper, lay a sheet of filter paper over the top of the pan overlapping on all
sides. Position the hold down ring over the filter paper and lower the ring into the pan, allowing
the paper to fold up and around the ring as it is pushed to the bottom of the pan. Then sprinkle 1
packet (8-ounces) of filter powder over the filter paper.
4. Reinstall the crumb tray at the front of the pan. (See Figure 1)
DO NOT USE FILTER POWDER WITH THE PAD!
5. Push the filter pan back into the fryer, positioning it under the fryer. Ensure “A” is displayed on
the MIB board. The filtration system is now ready for use.
DANGER
Do not drain more than one frypot at a time into the built-in filtration unit to avoid
overflow and spillage of hot oil that may cause severe burns, slipping and falling.
DANGER
The crumb tray in fryers equipped with a filter system must be emptied into a
fireproof container at the end of frying operations each day. Some food particles can
spontaneously combust if left soaking in certain shortening material.
WARNING
Do not bang fry baskets or other utensils on the fryer’s joiner strip. The strip is
present to seal the joint between the fry vessels. Banging fry baskets on the strip to
dislodge shortening will distort the strip, adversely affecting its fit. It is designed for
a tight fit and should only be removed for cleaning.
5.3 Auto Intermittent Filtration (AIF)
Auto Intermittent Filtration (AIF) is a feature that, after a number of preset cook cycles or time, will
automatically filter frypots.
An M3000 computer controls the Auto Intermittent Filtration
(AIF) system on the LOV™ fryer. After a preset number of cook
cycles or time the computer displays FIltEr now?
alternating with YES NO. The blue LED is activated
simultaneously. The LED will turn off once a filtration cycle is
started. If NO is selected or a cook cycle is started, the blue LED
will go off and will prompt again soon to filter the oil.
1. Press 9 (1) YES to start filtration and 8 (2) NO to cancel
filtration.
5-2
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
If the oil level is too low, the computer displays OIL LEVEL TOO LOW alternating with
YES. Press 9 (1) YES to acknowledge issue and return to idle cook mode. Check to see if the
JIB is low on oil. If JIB is not low and this continues to occur, contact your ASA.
If YES is chosen, SKIM VAT is displayed for ten seconds changing to cOnfIRm alternating
with YES NO. Skim the crumbs from the oil with a front to back motion, removing as many
crumbs as possible from each vat. This is critical to optimizing usable oil life and quality in the oil.
Note:
If NO is chosen in response to either FILTER now or CONFIRM, filtering is
cancelled and the fryer resumes normal operation. The FILTER now prompt is
displayed once the FILTER AFTER count is satisfied. This sequence repeats until yes is
chosen.
If the filter pan is not fully engaged, the computer displays INSERT PAN. Once the filter pan is
pushed fully into place, the computer displays SKIM VAT.
2. When 9 (1) YES is chosen, the auto filtration cycle is started. The fryer displays
DRAINING, WASHING and FILLING during the process.
Note: Simultaneous filtering of multiple vats does not occur.
Once filtering is complete the computer display changes to low temp until the fryer reaches
setpoint.
Once fryer reaches setpoint and the computer display changes to the product name or dashed lines,
the fryer is ready for use.
The complete filtering process takes roughly four minutes.
NOTE: If during filtration the filter pan is pulled, the filtration process stops and resumes once pan
is reseated into place.
DANGER
Keep all items out of drains. Closing actuators may cause damage or injury.
5.3.1 Auto Demand Filtration
Auto demand filtration is used to manually start an auto filtration.
1. The fryer MUST be at setpoint temperature.
With the computer on press and hold the
FLTR button for three seconds.

CHAPTER 6: PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE
6.1
Fryer Preventive Maintenance Checks and Service
DANGER
The crumb tray in fryers equipped with a filter system must be emptied into a fireproof con-
tainer at the end of frying operations each day. Some food particles can spontaneously
combust if left soaking in certain shortening material.
DANGER
Never attempt to clean the fryer during the frying process or when the frypot is filled with hot
oil. If water comes in contact with oil heated to frying temperature, it will cause spattering of
the oil, which can result in severe burns to nearby personnel.
WARNING
Use McDonald’s All Purpose Concentrate. Read the directions for use and precautionary
statements before use. Particular attention must be paid to the concentration of cleaner and
the length of time the cleaner remains on the food-contact surfaces.
6.2
DAILY CHECKS AND SERVICE
6.2.1 Inspect Fryer and Accessories for Damage
Look for loose or frayed wires and cords, leaks, foreign material in frypot or inside cabinet, and any other indica-
tions that the fryer and accessories are not ready and safe for operation.
6.2.2 Clean Fryer Cabinet Inside and Out - Daily
Clean inside the fryer cabinet with dry, clean cloth. Wipe all accessible metal surfaces and components to remove
accumulations of oil and dust.
Clean the outside of the fryer cabinet with a clean, damp cloth soaked with McDonald’s All Purpose Concentrate,
removing oil, dust, and lint from the fryer cabinet. Wipe with a clean, damp cloth.
6.2.3 Clean the Built-In Filtration System - Daily
WARNING
Never operate the filter system without oil in the system.
WARNING
Never use the filter pan to transport old oil to the disposal area.
WARNING
Never drain water into the filter pan. Water will damage the filter pump.
6-1
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
There are no periodic preventive maintenance checks and services required for your FootPrint Pro Filtration
System other than daily cleaning of the filter pan with a solution of hot water and McDonald’s All Purpose
Concentrate.
If you notice that the system is pumping slowly or not at all, verify that the filter pan screen is on the bottom of the
filter pan, with the pad on top of the screen. Verify that the two O-ring(s) on the fitting at the right front of the
filter pan are present and in good condition.
6.3
WEEKLY CHECKS AND SERVICE
6.3.1 Clean Behind Fryers
Clean behind fryers in accordance with the procedure detailed in the maintenance requirement card. Shut off and
disconnect the gas. Use the manual gas shut-off valve to shut off the gas supply. The manual gas shut-off valve is lo-
cated on the supply line before the quick disconnects. Then disconnect the gas line from the fryer via the quick
disconnect.
WARNING
To ensure the safe and efficient operation of the fryer and hood, the electrical plug for the
120-volt line, which powers the hood, must be fully engaged and locked in its pin and sleeve
socket.
6.3.2 Cleaning the Frypot - Quarterly
DANGER
Never operate the appliance with an empty frypot. The frypot must be filled with water or oil
before lighting the burners. Failure to do so will damage the frypot and may cause a fire.
6.3.2.1 Deep Clean (Boiling Out) the Frypot
During normal usage of your fryer, a deposit of carbonized oil will gradually form on the inside of the frypot. This
film should be periodically removed by following the deep-clean (boil-out) procedure contained in Kay Chemical
“Fryer Deep Clean Procedure” instructions. Refer to page 4-25 for specific details on setting up the computer for
deep clean (boil-out) operation.
DANGER
Allow oil to cool to 100ºF (38ºC) or lower before draining to an appropriate container for
disposal.
WARNING
Never leave the fryer unattended during this process. If the solution overflows, press the
ON/OFF switch to the OFF position immediately.
DANGER
Ensure that the frypot is completely free of water before filling with oil. When the oil is
heated to cooking temperature, water in the frypot will cause splattering.
6.3.3 Clean Filter Pan, Detachable Parts and Accessories
As with the frypot, a deposit of carbonized oil will accumulate on the filter pan and detachable parts and
accessories such as baskets, sediment trays, or fishplates.
6-2
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
Wipe the filter pan and all detachable parts and accessories with a clean dry cloth. Use a cloth dampened with a
solution of McDonald’s All Purpose Concentrate to remove accumulated carbonized oil. Rinse and thoroughly dry
each part. DO NOT use steel wool or abrasive pads to clean these parts. The scratches that result from such
scrubbing make subsequent cleanings more difficult.

CHAPTER 7: OPERATOR TROUBLESHOOTING
7.1
Introduction
This chapter provides an easy reference guide to some of the common problems that may occur
during the operation of your equipment. The troubleshooting guides that follow are intended to help
you correct, or at least accurately diagnose, problems with your equipment. Although the chapter
covers the most common problems reported, you may encounter problems that are not covered. In
such instances, the Frymaster Technical Services staff will make every effort to help you identify
and resolve the problem.
When troubleshooting a problem, always use a process of elimination starting with the simplest
solution and working through to the most complex. Most importantly, always try to establish a clear
idea of why a problem has occurred. Part of your corrective action involves taking steps to ensure
that it doesn’t happen again. If a controller malfunctions because of a poor connection, check all
other connections. If a fuse continues to blow, find out why. Always keep in mind that failure of a
small component may often be indicative of potential failure or incorrect functioning of a more
important component or system.
If you are in doubt as to the proper action to take, do not hesitate to call the Frymaster Technical
Service Department or your local Frymaster Factory Authorized Service Agency for assistance.
Before calling a servicer or the Frymaster HOTLINE (1-800-551-8633):
• Verify that electrical cords are plugged in and that circuit breakers are on.
• Verify that gas line quick-disconnects are properly connected.
• Verify that any gas line cutoff valves are open.
• Verify that frypot drain valves are fully closed.
• Have your fryer’s model and serial numbers ready to give the technician assisting
you.
DANGER
Hot oil will cause severe burns. Never attempt to move this appliance when filled with
hot oil or to transfer hot oil from one container to another.
DANGER
This equipment should be unplugged when servicing, except when electrical circuit
tests are required. Use extreme care when performing such tests.
