There are no periodic preventive maintenance checks and services required for your FootPrint III or
Filter Magic II Filtration Systems other than daily cleaning of the filter pan with a solution of hot
water and detergent.
If you notice that the system is pumping slowly or not at all, verify that the filter pan screen is on the
bottom of the filter pan, with the paper on top of the screen. Verify that the O-ring(s) are present and
in good condition. For FootPrint III units, there is a single O-ring located on the bottom of the filter
pan. For Filter Magic II systems, there is one O-ring on the bottom of the pan, and two O-rings on
the fitting at the inside back of the cabinet.
Immediately after each use, drain the Power Shower completely. If oil is leaking at the point where
the Power Shower plugs into the frypot, verify the O-ring and gasket on the connection fitting are
present, and in good condition. If you suspect blockage, unscrew the clean-out plugs at each corner
of the frame. Place the frame in a pan of hot water for several minutes to melt any solidified
oil/shortening. Use a long, narrow bottlebrush, hot water and detergent to clean inside the flare. If
necessary, insert a straightened paper clip or similarly sized wire into the holes in the frame to
remove any solidified shortening or other blockages. Rinse with hot water, dry thoroughly, and
reinstall the plugs before using.
