Draining and Disposing of Waste Oil
When cooking oil is exhausted, drain the oil into an appropriate METAL container for transport to
the disposal container. Frymaster recommends the use of the Frymaster Shortening Disposal Unit
(SDU). NOTE: If using an SDU built before January 2004 the filter pan cover must be removed to
allow the unit to be positioned beneath the drain. To remove the lid, lift up on the front edge and pull
it straight out of the cabinet. Refer to the documentation furnished with your disposal unit for
specific operating instructions. If a shortening disposal unit is not available, allow the oil to cool to
100°F (38°C), then drain the oil into a METAL stockpot or similar METAL container. When
draining is finished, close the fryer drain valve securely.
Allow oil to cool to 100°F (38°C) before draining into an appropriate
container for disposal.
When draining oil into a disposal unit, do not fill above the maximum fill line located
on the container.

Using the "Optional" Oil Disposal
If the fryer is fitted with the optional oil disposal, ensure the filter
pan is clean and ready for filtering. DO NOT discharge oil through
a dirty or incomplete filter pan.
1. Ensure the oil is at operating temperature.
2. Turn the fryer off. Wear protective clothing and use caution. Hot oil can cause
serious injury.
3. Open the drain valve of the frypot with oil to be discarded. Drain only one
frypot at a time.
4. With the frypot drained and the oil to be discarded in the filter pan, close the
drain valve. Ensure all other drain valves and oil-return valves are closed.
5. Ensure the oil disposal reservoir is not full and the fryer is properly connected
to the oil disposal system.
Discharge the oil by engaging the discharge valve handle. The filter pump will

come on and the oil will be pumped from the filter pan. Turn the pump off by
disengaging the discharge valve handle when the filter pan empties. Repeat
steps 1-6 if necessary to discharge the oil from other frypots. DO NOT
discharge water or other liquids through the filter system.
Refill the fryer with fresh oil.
