CAUTION
Never operate the filter unit unless the cooking oil or shortening in the
fryers has been brought up to cooking temperature.
WARNING
Alwayswear protective heat-resistant gloves when performing thefiltering operation.
1.Before filtering theshortening ina fryer,turn thethermostat knobto “OFF”or theGas Valveto“PI-
LOT”topreventthefryerfromre-lightingduringfiltering. Onsomemodelsthesystemautomatically
preventstheburnersfrom lightingwhenthe doorofthefryer isopen.
2.Openthe drain valve(blackhandle) onthefryer tobefiltered, lettingallthe shorteningdraininto the
filtertank. Leavethisvalve open.
3.Openthe returnlinevalve (yellowhandle)for thefryerbeing filtered. Thisactivatesthe powerto the
pump. Ifthe pumpdoes notstart immediately checkthat theswitch on theside ortop ofthe pump
frameis“ON”. Whilethefilter systemiscycling,use along-handledcleaningbrushto wipethebottom
ofthefryerand pushexcesscrumbsthrough thedrainandinto thefiltermachine.
4.Whentheshortening returningintothe fryer isclear,close the drainvalve(black handle)andallowthe
fryertorefill.
5.Allowthepump to rununtilno more oilisreturninginto thevat. Thenclosethe returnlinevalve
(yellowhandle),which de-activatesthepower tothe pump.
WARNING
When cleaning the inside of the frypot, do not damage the temperature and
hi-limit probes that protrude into the frypot.
If solid shortening is being used it is very important that all oil is allowed to flow back into
the vat and none is left in the hoses. Failure to do so could cause the pump to fail if the
oil solidifies in the line.
WARNING
DANGER
Never drain more than one fryer at a time – the filter pan may overflow.
!
!
Note On Using Filter Powder
If filter powder is being used, add 1 cup of powder (for 14” fryers) or 2 cups (for 18” fryers) to
eitherthe fry tank orthefiltertank. If added to frytank,makesure powder is completelyflushed
during fry tank cleaning (Step 3) before closing drain valve (Step 4). If added to filter tank, the
powder will be removed when the filter envelope is changed and the filter tank is cleaned.

PROBLEM
Pump does not
start when the
return line valve
(yellow handle) on
the fryer is opened.
1. Make sure the power cord is plugged into the receptacle in the cabinet and the
main power cord from the system is plugged into the appropriate power supply.
2. Turn the switch on the side of the filter to “ON”.
3. Close the return line valve (yellow handle) and try opening the return line valve
on another fryer. If the pump starts, the problem is with the microswitch that
contacts the return line valve on the first fryer.
4. If pump still hasn’t started, depress the thermal overload button on the bottom
of the motor. If the motor is hot to the touch, wait at least 45 minutes before trying
this.
5. If the pump starts and stops again in a short time, or if it hums but does not
pump, there is a restriction somewhere in the filter screen or in the pump itself. Go
to Step 6. If there is no reaction from the pump, go to step 7.
6. Allow the oil/shortening in the filter pan to cool, then empty the pan and verify
that the filter paper and screen assembly is assembled correctly. Disassemble the
filter screen and look for blockages of sediment or solid shortening within.
7. Problem is with the motor/pump or the wiring. Remove the motor from the
filter and bench test by connecting a 120V line to the motor leads. If it runs, the
problem is with the wiring between the motor and the power supply. If it does not
run, the motor needs to be replaced.
Filteringprocedureis

ing/oilreturningtothe

1. Afterallthe shortening/oilhas been pumpedback intothefryer,inspectthe
filterpaper envelope. Make surethat anyexcess sedimentis removedfrom the
topof the filterpaper envelope.
2. Ifthefilter paperenvelope isdirty ortorn, disassemblethe filter screen
assembly. Inspect forblockages inthe lines. Replacewitha cleanfilter paper

Fryersdo not re-fire
afterfiltering. 1. Make sure thedoor on the fryeris completely closed.
2. Resetthe ON/OFF switchon the fryerby flipping toOFF position and
then back to ON. (Note: Each time the fryer door is opened the ON/OFF
switchneeds to be reset.
