Screen over tubes will be very hot and should be moved to
a safe place.
3. Use spoon provided to stir oil. Bubbling will occur until all
water is removed. Failure to do so will clog the filter paper.
Refer to Figure 4.
NOTE: Water settles in the cooler oil in the Cold Zone. If the
water is not removed, the filter paper absorbs the water
preventing the oil from passing through it.
C. FILTRATION
1. On filter assembly, have handle with the black knob set to
FIGURE 4.

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE: Familiarize yourself with the proper filtering procedure prior to
attempting to filter
1. To remove water, stir oil until bubbling stops; water will clog filter paper pores.
2. Verify all connections, especially quick disconnects (under tub and inside fryer or CF cabinet) are
tight; not leaking oil or sucking air.
3. Use only one sheet of filter paper properly sealed under hold down ring.
4. Use a drain clean out rod if partial or full blockage in fryer drain is suspected.
5. If filter was used for fryer boil out, run oil through filter to lubricate motor/pump.
6. Clean filter and all components after each use. Do not permit oil to remain in filter drawer; it will clog
the pump.
7. Verify all lights and controls operate.
8. Adhere to operating instructions in sequence given for proper filtration.
9. Prepare filter for next use by using new filter paper and Acidox Powder for each fryer.
