the oil or shortening, Frymaster recommends that a Frymaster filter cone holder and filter cone be used when a filter machine is not available. If you are using a Frymaster filter cone holder, be sure that the cone holder rests securely on the metal container.
3.Open the drain valve slowly to avoid splattering. If the drain valve becomes clogged with food particles, use the Fryer’s Friend
DANGER
NEVER attempt to clear a clogged drain valve from the front of the valve! Hot oil will rush out creating the potential for severe burns.
DO NOT hammer on the drain valve with the cleanout rod or other objects. Damage to the ball inside will result in leaks and will void the Frymaster warranty.
4.After draining the oil, clean all food particles and residual oil from the frypot. BE CAREFUL, this material may still cause severe burns if it comes in contact with bare skin.
5.Close the drain valve securely and fill the frypot with clean, filtered or fresh oil or solid shortening to the bottom
DANGER
When using solid shortening, pack the shortening down into the bottom of the frypot. DO NOT operate the fryer with a solid block of shortening sitting in the upper portion of the frypot. This will cause damage to the frypot and may cause a flash fire.
