Operation Of The Filter Unit - Frymaster FM45E Installation & Operation Manual

OPERATION OF THE FILTER UNIT

CAUTION
Never operate the filter unit unless the
cooking oil in the fryers has been
brought up to cooking temperature.
1. To filter the cooking oil, turn the fryer
power OFF, then open the drain valve on
the fryer you have selected to be filtered.
If necessary, use the Fryer's Friend steel
rod to clear the drain from inside the fry-
pot as necessary.
DANGER
Never drain more than one fryer at a
time—the filter pan may overflow.
When unclogging a valve, DO NOT
insert anything into the drain from the
front of the fryer. Hot oil/shortening
will rush out, creating an extreme
hazard.
WARNING
DO NOT hammer on the drain valve
with the Fryer's Friend. This will
damage the drain valve ball and
prevent the valve from sealing
securely, resulting in a leaky valve.

2. When the frypot is empty, use a long-
handled, stiff brush to remove sediment
from the sides of the frypot. When clean-
ing the inside of the frypot, avoid striking
the high limit thermostat and temperature
probe or operating thermostat.
3. Snap the Power Shower into the frypot.
DO NOT operate the filter without the
Power Shower in place. Hot oil will
spray out of the fryer and may
cause injury.
4. After all oil has drained from the pot,
PULL the filter handle to start the pump
and begin the filtering process. There may
be a slight delay before the pump acti-
vates.
