4.3.2 Filter Operation

CAUTION

NEVER operate the filter unit unless cooking oil is at operating temperature (~350°F).

1.Ensure the filter pan assembly is prepared as described in Section 4.3.1.

2.Turn fryer off and remove the fry baskets from the frypot. Prior to filtering, skim any large debris from the oil. Use extreme caution, as oil is at or near operating temperature (350°F).

3.After ensuring the filter pan is correctly positioned under the drain tubes, open the drain valve to drain the frypot into the filter pan. DRAIN ONLY ONE FRYPOT AT A TIME! The filter pan is designed to hold the contents of one frypot only.

4.After all oil has drained from the frypot into the filter pan, pull the filter pump T-handle to open the oil return valve and activate the filter pump.

Turn drain valve handle to the right to open the valve.

Pull the T-handle out to start the filter pump.

5.Oil will begin to pump from the filter pan into the frypot. Allow the oil to circulate for approximately 5 minutes to remove suspended particles. If the frypot sides and bottom have sediment deposits, lift the heating elements and clean the frypot with the cleaning brush included with the fryer.

6.After the oil is filtered, close the drain valve and allow the frypot to refill.

7.After all oil is pumped back into the frypot, bubbles will form, indicating air in the oil return lines. Allow the oil to bubble for 10-15 seconds to ensure all the oil is evacuated from the return lines. Push the T-handle in to close the oil return valve and deactivate the filter pump.
