Lard has a low smoking temperature and would burn and cause the food to taste burnt as well

The real reason you can't put lard in most fryers is that many have an immersion element that supplies the heat. If a solid is heated, total immersion is not achieved and creates a real risk of fire as that element will sputter and overheat as it fails to effectively transfer its energy through the oil. The dripping lard on the OVER heated element may lead to combustion -a fire (I asked a manufacturer).
Because the heating element can melt just the lard around it to flame, while the rest remains solid, use a frier where the heating element has no contact with the lard. I use a Presto CoolDaddy with a removable pot.

When using a deep fat fryer, important safety precautions to consider include keeping the fryer away from water, using it on a stable surface, avoiding overcrowding the fryer with food, and being cautious of hot oil splatters. Additionally, always have a fire extinguisher nearby and never leave the fryer unattended while in use.
Lard is fat, so 100g lard is 100g fat.
The first thing to do, is to throw out the deep fat fryer, because any food fried in fat is just not good for you.
It is not really recommended to use chemicals to clean a deep fat fryer because of the strong smell and risk of contamination. Instead, you should use a solution of hot water, clear dish washing liquid and a non-abrasive sponge.
It is an extremely expensive way of utilizing the deep fat fryer. You should look into changing the heating coils in the fryer to utilize the new voltage. That said it can be done.
Some products that can be cooked in dep fryers are french fries, chicken, pork, fish, turkey, beef, and many more.
Deep frying is a cooking method in which food is submerged in hot oil or fat. This is normally performed with a deep fryer or chip pan
