The filter drain pan must be as far back under fryer as it will go, and the cover in place. Be sure the hole in the cover lines up with the drain before opening the drain. Failure to follow these instructions causes splashing of shortening and could result in personal injury.

Surfaces of fryer and baskets will be hot. Use care when filtering to avoid getting burned.

3.Open door(s) under unit, and slowly turn drain

valve handle a half turn. Leave for a few minutes, then

Figure 3-6slowly, fully open drain valve. This prevents much splashing of the hot shortening as it drains. Figure 3-5.

4.As the shortening drains from the frypot, use brushes to clean the sides of the frypot and the burner tubes or heating elements. If the drain fills with breading, use straight white brush to push excess breading into the drain pan.

5.When all shortening has drained, scrape or brush the sides and the bottom of the frypot. Use the lift tool (Figure 3-6) and lift the elements (electric fryers), to clean the bottom of the frypot. Figure 3-7.
