CHAPTER 4: FILTRATION INSTRUCTIONS

4.1 Draining and Manual Filtering

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.

DANGER

Draining and filtering of oil must be accomplished with care to avoid the possibility of a serious burn caused by careless handling. The oil to be filtered is at or near 350°F (177°C). Ensure all hoses are connected properly and drain handles are in their proper position before operating any switches or valves. Wear all appropriate safety equipment when draining and filtering oil.

DANGER

NEVER attempt to drain oil from the fryer with the burner lit! Doing so will result in a flash fire if the oil splashes onto the burner. Applying burner heat to an empty frypot will severely damage the frypot and void warranties.

DANGER

Allow oil to cool to 100°F (38°C) or lower before draining to an appropriate container

for disposal.

If the fryer is not equipped with built-in filtration, the oil must be drained into another suitable container. For safe, convenient draining and disposal of used oil, Frymaster L.L.C. recommends the use of the Frymaster shortening disposal unit (SDU). The SDU is available through your local distributor.

DANGER

When draining oil into a disposal unit or portable filter unit, do not fill above the

maximum fill line located on the container.

1.Turn the fryer power switch to the OFF position. Screw the drainpipe (provided with your fryer) into the drain valve. Make sure the drainpipe is firmly screwed into the drain valve and that the opening is pointing down.

2.Position a metal container with a sealed cover under the drainpipe. The metal container must be able to withstand the heat of the oil and hold hot liquids. If you intend to reuse the oil, use a Frymaster filter cone holder and filter cone when a filter machine is not available.
