4.3Operation of the Filter

DANGER

Draining and filtering of oil must be accomplished with care to avoid the possibility of a serious burn caused by careless handling. The oil to be filtered is at or near 350°F (177°C). Ensure drain handles are in their proper position before operating any switches or valves. Wear all appropriate safety equipment when draining and filtering oil.

DANGER

NEVER attempt to drain oil from the fryer with the elements energized! Doing so will cause irreparable damage to the elements and may cause a flash fire. Doing so will also void the Frymaster warranty.

1.Ensure that the filter is prepared. See Sec. 4.2

2.Make sure the oil is at operating temperature.

3.Turn the fryer power OFF. Drain the frypot into the filter pan. Remove the basket support rack and raise the element assembly to the up position. If necessary, use the Fryer's Friend clean-out rod to clear the drain from inside the frypot.

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 oil has drained from the frypot, turn the filter handle to the ON position to start the pump and begin the filtering process. Make sure the drain valve is left open. There may be a slight delay before the pump activates.
