D.Wash down and scrub the sides of the cook pot. Use “L” brush to clean the heating elements.
E . After the sides and bottom are cleaned, open the drain valve.
7.Pump all the shortening out of the filter pan and back into the cook pot. Close the lid during the first surge of pumping.
8.When the pump is pumping air only, the shortening in the fry pot will appear to be boiling. Close the filter valve first and then move the main power switch from PUMP to OFF. This will keep the filter pump and lines from filling up with shortening.
Note: When the appearance of boiling occurs, immediately close the filter valve, then turn the pump off. This will prevent aeration of the shortening, therefore increasing shortening life.
9.Check the level of the shortening in the cook pot. Add fresh shortening, if necessary, until it reaches the level indicator line on the rear wall of the cook pot.
NOTE: Approximately 10 to 12 filterings can be made with one filter paper envelope, depending on several conditions; the quantity and type of product fried and filtered, the type of breading used, and the amount of crumb accumulation left inside the filter drain pan. When the filter screen assembly and filter paper become clogged and pumping flow rate slows down, clean the screen assembly and change the filter envelope. See procedure on page
10.After completing the filtering operation, empty and replace the condensation drain pan.
11.If cooking is to be continued at this time, move the main power switch back to the COOK position and allow time for reheating of the shortening.
The filter envelope should be changed after
1.Move the main power switch to the OFF position.
2.Remove and empty the condensation drain pan.
3.Disconnect the filter union and remove the filter drain pan from beneath the fry pot. The filter drain pan is provided with casters for ease of movement.
