CHAPTER 4: OPERATING/FILTERING INSTRUCTIONS
4.1 Filter Operation (cont.)
5. Ensure the oil is at operating temperature [~350° (177°C)]. Turn the fryer off.
The filter pan maximum capacity varies with model. DO NOT OVERFILL THE FILTER
6. Return/Suction:
Suction Operation: Ensure the filter pan lid is in place to prevent splashing of hot oil. Place
a.
the filter hose nozzle into the frypot. Turn the Suction/Off/Return switch to SUCTION to
start the filter pump (see illustration below). Oil will transfer from the frypot to the filter
pan.
DO NOT insert the tip of the nozzle into the sediment area of the frypot. Suction of
sediment into the nozzle will damage the filter pump. If the pump becomes clogged,
stop the pump immediately. Reverse the pump to discharge particles into the frypot
When the fryer is emptied of oil, place the nozzle into the filter pan and turn the
Suction/Off/Return switch to RETURN (see illustration below). Circulate the oil through
the filter for approximately 5 minutes (process known as "polishing"). Polishing the oil
maximizes filtering and extends the life of the oil. After 5 minutes, turn the
Suction/Off/Return switch to OFF.
