6 ROUTINE CLEANING
6.1 CLEANING SCHEDULE
Performing the preventative maintenance steps below on a daily basis will keep your equipment safe
and at peak performance. During the cooking process, oil/shortening may spill and splatter and
requires immediate attention. Furthermore, during the cooking process, particles, crumbs and
crackling collect inside the cooker tank reducing product quality and decreasing oil/shortening life. If
you are producing high quantities of fried food and/or frying heavily battered food, it may be necessary
to perform the QUICK STRAIN FILTERING (See section 4.25) more than once a day.
7 START OF DAY
7.1 REPLACING THE FILTER MEDIA (if equipped)
ATTENTION: INSTALL NEW FILTER DAILY - more frequently if scraping the sediment does not
restore full pump flow rate. Oil will return to frypot slowly if the filter is dirty.
1. Clean Filter Parts

Clean filter parts in a pot sink, using detergents to emulsify cooking oil film. Allow parts to fully air dry
before installing filter. (wet parts will make the filter soggy and tear open)
2. Installing a New Filter Envelope (A6667101 for replacement envelope)
 Insert support screen with fitting facing hole in filter
 Fold open end of paper down
 Slide clip assembly over folded end of envelope assembly and attach clip assembly to filter
support fitting and tighten nut.
3. Pick up Tube Strainer (Oil will return slowly is strainer cap is loose or dirty)
Check pick up tube strainer is clear each time the filter is changed. Insure that the strainer is installed
tightly on housing. Push filter pan into rail under fryer until the pan stop is reached
