4. After all oil has drained from the pot, po-
sition the filter control to start the pump
and begin the filtering process. There may
be a slight delay before the pump acti-
vates. Control operation will vary de-
pending upon the particular configuration
of your equipment (i.e., FMG18FB or
FMG24FB, FPH150-G18FB combination,
or FPG18FB).

Filter Control ON.
FPG18FB
The FPG18FB does not have a Power
Shower. It is, however, equipped with a
quick-disconnect fitting for attaching a
wand assembly. This configuration allows
the filter pump to be used to transfer used
oil to an oil disposal container or recovery
system. The wand assembly is not de-
signed or intended for use as a substitute
for a Power Shower or rear flush system.
The dispose wand and filter should not
be operated simultaneously.
5. After the oil is completely filtered, close
the drain valve and allow the fryer to refill.
Allow the filter to run 10 to 12 seconds
after bubbles appear in the oil to clear the
lines and prevent hardening of shortening
in the lines.
The filter pump motor is equipped with
a manual reset switch, located at the
left rear of the motor housing, in case
the filter motor overheats or an
electrical fault occurs. If this switch
trips, turn off power to the filter system
and allow the pump motor to cool
40 minutes before attempting to reset
the switch.
6. When the fryer is full, position the Filter
Control to the OFF position. If used, re-
move the Power Shower and allow it to
drain.
7. Make sure the drain valve is fully closed.
Turn the fryer ON and allow the cooking
oil/shortening to reach setpoint.
NOTE: Ensure the fryer drain valve is fully
closed before turning the fryer on. If the drain
valve is not fully closed, the fryer will not op-
erate.
