PORTABLE FILTER

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

A. PREPARING THE PORTABLE FILTER

1.Remove screen from over tubes/element with tongs or a Drain Clean Out Rod (See Figure 1.1).

SCREEN OVER TUBES/ ELEMENTS WILL BE VERY HOT AND

SHOULD BE MOVED TO A SAFE PLACE.

2.Heat fryers to 325°F. Stir oil thoroughly until all water is removed and shut fryer off (including pilot light) before filtering. (Figure 1.2)

NOTE: Water settles in the cooler oil in the Cold Zone. If the water is not removed, the filter paper absorbs the water preventing the oil from passing through it.

OIL IS HOT. USE CARE WHEN FILTERING.

3.Place in clean filter tub (See Figure 1.3):

Filter Paper (new sheet for each fryer)

3rd:

Hold down ring

4th:

Secure hold down ring at each corner with “T” rod handles

5th:

Acidox filter powder (new powder for each fryer)

6th:

Strainer basket

NOTE: Hold down ring makes a gasket-like seal on filter paper. Filter paper must be placed edge to edge from front to back, overlapping on sides. Filter Paper must be smooth and flat under hold down ring to get a proper seal. Lock the two tension arms into place by pushing down and rotating 90°.

NOTE: One package of Acidox is needed for every 40 pounds of oil.

B.FILTRATION

1.Place filter under fryer drain. Screw drain extension tube in to drain valve if desired. Open main drain valve and let oil flow completely into filter

(See Figure 2.1).

2.Turn on pump and flush all crumbs from bottom of fryer into filter. Flush out fryer completely (See Figure 2.2).

3.Close fryer drain valve (See Figure 2.3).

4.Clean fryer vessel with non-abrasive scrub pad & Keating Klenzer.

5.Fill fryer with filtered oil by turning on pump and directing end of wand into vessel (See Figure 2.4).

NOTE: Filters with two-way pump - do NOT place wand in cold zone

of fryer pot as it may pick up crumbs & other debris and excessively clog filter paper.
