−With the filter pan empty, place each oil return handle, one at a time, in the "ON" position. Verify that the pump activates and that bubbles appear in the oil of the associated frypot.

−Close all oil return valves (i.e., place all oil return handles in the "OFF" position). Verify proper functioning of each oil return valve by activating the filter pump using the lever on one of the oil return handle microswitches. No air bubbles should be visible in any other frypot.

−Verify that the filter pan is properly prepared for filtering, then drain a frypot of oil heated to 350°F (177°C) into the filter pan and close the frypot drain valve. Place the oil return handle in the "ON" position. Allow all oil to return to the frypot (indicated by bubbles in the oil. Return the oil return handle to the "OFF" position.
