FILTERING OIL

NOTE:

Oil should be at least 300ºF (149ºC) DO NOT attempt to filter cold oil. DO NOT attempt to pump oil when less than 300ºF. Cold oil will not pass through the filter paper. Filtering cold oil will result in the premature failure of the filter pump. Damage as a result of pumping cold oil IS NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY.

NOTE:

DO NOT store oil in the reservoir for any extended period, including overnight.

IMPORTANT:

The filtration system in your Wells Fryer is designed to filter hot liquid shortening ONLY. Water, cleaning agents or other liquids will damage the filter pump and may contaminate the food product

1.Press POWER SWITCH (item 1) to FILTER. Pump controls will be energized and heating elements are de-energized.

2.Remove and examine filter reservoir:

•Verify that a serviceable sheet of filter paper is properly installed.

•Verify that an o-ring is in place and in good condition.

Reinstall reservoir, making sure the SUCTION TUBE is firmly seated in the SUCTION RECEPTACLE.

3.Press FILTER PUMP SWITCH (item 8) to ON to start filter pump.

4.Slowly rotate DRAIN VALVE LEVER (item 11) to the vertical position. Oil will drain from the frypot and into the reservoir. The filter pump will draw oil through the filter paper and return it to the frypot.

IMPORTANT:

DO NOT leave the fryer unattended during the filtering process. Continuously monitor oil level in the reservoir to avoid overflowing the reservoir and spilling oil on the floor. Be prepared to turn the drain valve lever clockwise to stop or regulate the flow of oil to the reservoir.

5.Carefully and slowly add the contents of one package of FILTER POWDER to the oil in the frypot. Sprinkle the filter powder onto the surface of the oil at the point where it is being drawn down the drain and into the filter reservoir.

CAUTION

BURN HAZARD

Protective clothing and gloves must be worn during the filtering process

CAUTION

BURN HAZARD

Filter reservoir may be hot. Wear insulated gloves, or allow reservoir to cool, before touching it.

IMPORTANT:

Filtering cooking oil helps to ensure the quality of the food product. Careful observation of the finished food product will help you determine the optimal filtering frequency.

(Example: Filter the oil after each six loads of fresh breaded chicken)

FILTER POWDER absorbs acids and many other contaminants in the cooking oil, allowing the oil to be used longer before it must be replaced. Wells Flavor Saver Oil Filter Powder is available from your Wells Equipment Dealer or Authorized Service Agent in a case of 45 packages (p/n 22410).
