OIL FILTRATION INSTRUCTIONS (FOR UNITS WITH INSTALLED OPTION)
Careful observation of the finished food product will
help determine optimal filtering frequency. Filtering
the cooking oil at regular intervals will help ensure food
quality.
FOR BEST RESULTS: Do not allow the temperature of
the oil to decrease below the "Idle Mode" temperature of
250°F (121°C) when filtering. If filtering at the end of the
day, pump oil back into the kettle while still hot. Do not
allow oil to cool before returning to kettle.

OPERATORS MUST BE MADE AWARE OF THE HAZARDS
INVOLVED IN THE OPERATION OF A HOT OIL FILTERING
SYSTEM. ON-SITE SUPERVISION DURING THE
FILTRATION PROCESS AND THE CLEANING PROCESS IS
STRONGLY RECOMMENDED.
