4.3.3 Installing the Filter

1. Slide the filter inside the fryer cabinet. Ensure the male-female pickup tubes are fully

engaged. Ensure the filter pan opening is directly under the center dump tube.

Use caution and wear proper protective clothing. The oil to be filtered is at or near

350°F (177°C). Ensure all hoses are connected properly and drain handles are in

their proper position prior to operating any switches or valves. Failure to do this can

result in severe burns.

Drawings and photos used in this manual are intended to illustrate operational,

cleaning and technical procedures and may not conform to on-site management

operational procedures.

Only filter oil at operating temperature (~350°F/~177°C). When filtering begins, the filter motor

engages and oil is drawn through filter paper or a filter-leaf assembly and pumped back into the

frypot through oil return plumbing. The frypot's drain remains open during the filtering process,

allowing oil to filter through the frypot and back into the filter unit. Allow the oil to cycle through

this process for approximately 5 minutes. At the end of 5 minutes, close the drain valve and allow

the frypot to fill to the top OIL LEVEL line. Leave the pump running for 10-15 seconds after

bubbles appear in the frypot to ensure all oil is pumped from the drain pan and the lines. Close the

oil return valve.
