Disconnect power to the filter system, remove the input plumbing from the pump, and use a
screwdriver to manually turn the gears.
● Turning the pump gears in reverse will release a hard particle.
● Turning the pump gears forward will push softer objects and solid shortening through the
pump and allow free movement of the gears.
Incorrectly sized or installed paper/pads will also allow food particles and sediment to pass through
and clog the suction tube on the bottom of the filter pan. Particles large enough to block the suction
tube may indicate that the crumb tray is not being used. Pan blockage can also occur if shortening is
left in the pan and allowed to solidify. Blockage removal can be accomplished by forcing the item
out with an auger or drain snake. Compressed air or other pressurized gases should not be used to
force out the blockage.
1.8.2 Replacing the Filter Motor, Filter Pump, and Related Components
1. Remove the filter pan and lid from the unit. Drain the frypots into an oil disposal unit (MSDU)
or other appropriate metal container.
DANGER
DO NOT drain more than one full frypot or two split frypots into the MSDU at one time.
2. Disconnect the fryer from the electrical power supply and reposition it to gain access to both the
front and rear.
3. Remove the two lower back panels, unplug the wiring harnesses from the contactor boxes, and
remove the two screws that secure one of the boxes in place (it doesn’t matter which one; see
illustration on page 1-6). NOTE: If you remove the screws from both boxes at the same time,
the boxes will jam against each other and neither can be removed.
4. Carefully lower the box to the floor and pull it out the front of the fryer. Remove the remaining
box following the same procedure.
5. Disconnect the two flexlines running to the oil-return manifold at the rear of the fryer. Remove
the nut and bolt that secures the bridge to the oil-return manifold.
