CF SERIES GAS FRYERS
CHAPTER 4: FILTRATION INSTRUCTIONS
4-6
OPERATION OF THE FILTER UNIT
CAUTION
NEVER operate the filter unit unless the oil is at operating temperature [~350°F
(~177°C)].
1. To filter the oil, bring oil to operating
temperature and turn the fryer power OFF.
Then open the drain valve on the fryer you
have selected to be filtered. If necessary, use
the Fryer’s Friend steel rod to clear the drain
from inside the frypot as necessary.
DANGER
Filter ONLY one frypot at a time. The filter pan is designed to hold the contents of
one frypot ONLY.
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.
2. When the frypot is empty, use a long-
handled, stiff brush to remove sediment from
the sides of the frypot. When cleaning the
inside of the frypot, avoid striking the high
limit thermostat and temperature probe or
operating thermostat (arrows).
Avoid striking probe bulbs
when cleaning frypot.
Drain valve in the
open position.
