4.5.1 Filter Operation (cont.)
5. After all oil has drained from the frypot into
the filter pan, turn the yellow handle (right) to
open the oil return valve and activate the
filter pump. Leave the red handle in the open
position.
6. Oil will begin to pump from the filter pan
into the frypot. If the frypot sides and bottom
have sediment deposits, clean the frypot with
the cleaning brush included with the fryer.
7. Allow the oil to circulate for approximately 5
minutes (process known as "polishing") to
remove suspended particles.
8. After the filter cycle is complete, close the
drain valve (push the red handle to the left
until it stops) and allow the fryer to refill.
9. After all oil is pumped back into the frypot,
bubbles will form, indicating air in the oil
return lines. Allow the oil to bubble for 10-
15 seconds to ensure all oil is evacuated from
the return lines. Turn the yellow handle (left)
to close the oil return valve and deactivate the
filter pump.
10. If the oil level is low, add oil until the level is
at the top OIL LEVEL line. DO NOT
OVERFILL THE FRYPOT.
WARNING
DO NOT OVERFILL THE FYPOT. This will
cause oil to splash out of the frypot during
cooking and may cause burns or damage.
Allow the oil to bubble for 10-15
seconds to ensure evacuation of
all oil in the return lines and turn
the yellow handle to left to
deactivate pump.
Turn the yellow handle (right) to
open the oil return valve and activate
the filter pump.
After filtering is complete, push the
red drain handle (left) to close the
drain and start refilling the frypot.
WARNING
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.
