Frymaster 8195809 SUFF/UFF Filtration Systems Cleaning and Maintenance, Each Filter Use

SUFF/UFF FILTRATION SYSTEMS

CHAPTER 4: CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

4.1 General

Cleaning operations fall into three general categories:

•Wiping unit clean after each filter session;

•Cleaning filter or filter-leaf assembly, changing filter paper (systems without filter- leaf), and preparing the unit for the next day’s business.

•Weekly cleaning to remove oil deposits and other particles.

CAUTION

Never operate the filter unit unless cooking oil is at operating temperature.

4.2 Each Filter Use

Every time the SUFF/UFF filter system is used:

•Wash down the insides of the filter pan with hot oil.

•Change the filter paper (not applicable to filter-leaf equipped systems; see CLEANING THE FILTER-LEAF ASSEMBLY below) after each filter session or at the end of the day. Scrape sediment from the filter paper after each frypot is filtered and dispose of it in a fireproof container.

•Wipe away any oil.

•Wipe all exterior surfaces of the filter unit.

CLEANING THE FILTER-LEAF ASSEMBLY

Filters equipped with a filter-leaf require specific cleaning and assembly procedures. In the absence of cleaning and disassembly/reassembly instructions shipped with the filter-leaf, use the following procedure (see illustration on next page):

Grasp the seal frame near each corner at the locking tab ( 1 ) and pull frame apart.	The seal
frame will separate into two pieces. Separate the top and bottom screens ( 2 and	3 ) and
remove the grid ( 4 ). Assemble in reverse order (see illustration on next page).

Clean the two seal frame pieces, screens and grid using a good quality degreaser and hot water from a spray nozzle. The groove in the seal frame pieces can be cleaned with the edge of a Scotch-Brite™ type cleaning pad.
