Appendix A: Filtration - Dean Super Marathon Series Installation & Operation Manual

1. GENERAL:
a. These instructions are not intended to
replace the operating instructions that
came with your Dean Filter System.
They are intended to provide general
information
procedures and serve as a quick
reference guide.
b. For consistent
convenience and long-term savings,
use a high-quality liquid frying
compound.
c. The frying compound should be
filtered at least daily or even more
frequently if cooking is heavy. This
ensures the longest life possible for
the frying compound, gives better
taste to the food being prepared, and
minimizes flavors being transferred
from batch to batch.
d. When completing a filter cycle,
always close the return valve(s) at the
fryer(s) to avoid siphoning oil out of
the fryer into the filter and open the
valve at the filter to promote draining
of the return lines into the filter pan.
e. If using solid shortening, always
make sure the return lines are clear
before turning off the filter motor and
hang any flexible lines up to drain.
Solid shortening will solidify as it
cools and clog the lines.
CAUTION
WHEN FILTERING, NEVER LEAVE
THE FILTER UNATTENDED.
