4-3
DANGER
Do not drain more than one frypot at a time into the built-in filtration unit to avoid
overflow and spillage of hot oil.
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 the cooking oil has drained from
the frypot, turn the filter handle to the
ON position to start the pump and begin
the filtering process. There may be a
slight delay before the pump activates.
5. The filter pump draws the cooking oil through the filter medium and circulates it back up to and
through the frypot during a 5-minute process called polishing. Polishing cleans the oil by
trapping solid particles in the filter medium.
6. After the oil is filtered (about 5 minutes), close the drain valve and allow the fryer to refill. Let
the filter pump run 10 to 12 seconds after the oil begins to bubble. Turn the filter off.
WARNING
The filter pump is equipped with a manual reset switch (see photo below) in case the
filter motor overheats or an electrical fault occurs. If this switch trips, turn off power
to the filter system and allow the pump motor to cool 20 minutes before attempting
to reset the switch.

7. Lower the elements into the frypot and reinstall the basket support rack. Ensure the drain
valve is fully closed. (If the drain valve is not fully closed, the fryer will not operate.) Turn
the fryer ON and allow the cooking oil to reach setpoint.
Turn filter handle
to the ON position.
