2 Prepare for boil-out and turn
fryer off.
Put on neoprene gloves, a
heat-resistant apron, and a
face shield. You must wear
this equipment throughout
this procedure.
This procedure should be
done for only one vat at a
time.
Confirm that the fryer filters
are in place. Turn at least one
exhaust fan on. The fan must
stay on for the entire proce-
dure.
Make sure the basket support
rack is in place in the vat.
Press the on/off key to turn
the fryer off.
Avoid accidentally activating
the fire extinguishing system
by keeping an exhaust fan on
and the fryer filters in place
during the entire procedure.
3 Remove filter pan.
Open the doors to the filter
area and remove the filter
pan. Place it on the floor un-
der the fryer's drain spout or
use an oil removal cart.
After boil out is complete
clean and dry filter pan.
4 Drain oil from vat.
Be sure the filter pan or an oil
removal cart is in place un-
derneath the drain spout on
the fryer. If the fryer has a
swivel drain spout, pull it
outward.
Carefully open the drain
valve, and let the oil drain
into the oil removal cart or
pan. Push any pieces of fried
food or other sediment into
the drain valve, so they drain
out. Close the drain valve.
The oil may be very hot.
Avoid splashing oil.
5 Add degreaser and hot water
to vat.
Pour McD Heavy-Duty De-
greaser carefully into the vat.
Use 2 gallons (8 liters) of
degreaser if you are cleaning
a full vat. Use 1 gallon (4
liters) of degreaser if you are
cleaning one side of a split
vat. Finish filling the vat with
hot water. Solution should be
1 inch above fill line.
