3. Open the drain valve slowly to avoid splattering. If the drain valve becomes clogged with
food particles, use the Fryer's Friend (poker-like tool) to clear the blockage.
NEVER attempt to clear a clogged drain valve from the front of the valve! Hot
oil will rush out creating the potential for severe burns.
DO NOT hammer on the drain valve with the cleanout rod or other objects.
Damage to the ball inside will result in leaks and will void the Frymaster
warranty.
4. After draining the oil, clean all food particles and residual oil from the frypot. BE
CAREFUL, this material may still cause severe burns if it comes in contact with bare skin.
5. Close the drain valve securely and fill the frypot with clean, filtered or fresh oil or solid
shortening to the bottom OIL-LEVEL line.
WHEN USING SOLID SHORTENING, PACK THE SHORTENING DOWN IN
BETWEEN THE TUBES TO THE BOTTOM OF THE FRYPOT. DO NOT OPERATE
THE FRYER WITH A SOLID BLOCK OF SHORTENING SITTING IN THE UPPER
PORTION OF THE FRYPOT. THIS WILL CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE FRYPOT
AND MAY CAUSE A FLASH FIRE.
5.2 General Filtration Information
Most filter systems use filter paper as the filter medium. Filter powder is required to enhance
the filtration process. Photos used in the procedural illustrations may differ from the filter
unit that came with the frying system. The following procedures apply to all fryers equipped
with filter systems. Filter system design depends on the frying system configuration.
