CHAPTER 4: FILTRATION INSTRUCTIONS

4. Filtration

WARNING

The on-site supervisor is responsible for ensuring that operators are made aware of the inherent hazards of operating a hot oil filtering system, particularly the aspects of oil filtration, draining and cleaning procedures.

DANGER

Draining and filtering of cooking oil or shortening 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 all hoses are connected properly and drain handles are in their proper position before operating any switches or valves. Wear all appropriate safety equipment when draining and filtering cooking oil or shortening.

DANGER

NEVER attempt to drain cooking oil or shortening from the fryer with the burner lit! Doing so will result in a flash fire if the oil or shortening splashes onto the burner. Applying burner heat to an empty frypot will severely damage the frypot and void warranties.

DANGER

Allow oil or shortening to cool to 100°F (38°C) or lower before draining to an

appropriate container for disposal.

DANGER

When draining oil/shortening into a disposal unit or portable filter unit, do not fill

above the maximum fill line located on the container.

The cooking oil or shortening must be drained into another suitable container. For safe, convenient draining and disposal of used cooking oil or shortening, Frymaster L.L.C. recommends the use of the Frymaster shortening disposal unit (SDU). The SDU is available through your local distributor.

1.Turn the fryer gas valve knob to PILOT. Screw the drainpipe (provided with your fryer) into the drain valve. Make sure the drainpipe is firmly screwed into the drain valve and that the opening of the curved end is pointing down.
