FILTERPROCEDURES

NOTE

When working with hot oil ALWAYS wear oil-proof, insulated gloves.

WARNING

NEVER • Run the filter system without a filter bag/paper.

NEVER • Empty the oil from the fryer before turning OFF the fryer burners.

NEVER • Store the UFM Filter Unit anywhere other than in the fryer filter cavity.

a.Slide the filter pan out. Carefully remove filtered residue off the filter media. Examine the filter media for clogged or torn areas. Refer to filter media replacement instructions following this section. Reinstall the pan.

b.Turn the fryer that is to be filtered OFF (See Standby Shutdown). Remove the baskets from the fryer tank(s). Use the clean out brush to lift out the tube screens. If there are excess crumbs in the fryer tank, remove them with the crumb scoop.

c.If you have replaced the filter media or remove crumbs and debris, sprinkle Precoat Filter Aid on the filter paper.

d.Check the drain spout to ensure that it is in the drain tower and over the filter pan opening.

e.Slowly open the green handled drain valve for the tank being filtered. If necessary use the clean-brush to clear the crumbs from the drain. Use the brush to clean the sides of the tank as the oil drains.

WARNING

This filter pan is only large enough to hold the contents

of one (1) tank at once, during the filter process.

f.When the tank is empty, close the green handled drain valve. Open the red handled return valve to the tank you are filtering. This will start the pump and return the oil to the bottom of the fry tank.

g.When bubbles are seen coming out of the oil return spout, close the red handled valve to turn the pump off. If necessary add more oil to the tank to return the oil level to the fill mark. The fryer is now ready for use.

DRAININGATANK

The filter system is also used to drain the fryers. You will need a container capable of holding 4000F oil and protective gloves.

a.Rotate the drain down spout so that it extends in the container that you want to drain the shortening into.

b.Open the green handled drain valve for the tank to be drained. The oil will drain into the container you have shosen. When the container is full or the fry tank is empty, close the green handled drain valve. If the container was full repeat this step until fryer tank is empty.

c.Once tank is completely empty add new shortenning and follow fryer start up procedures.
