1. Fill the frypot with oil to the bottom OIL
LEVEL line located on the rear of the
frypot. This will allow for oil expansion as
heat is applied. Do not fill cold oil any
higher than the bottom line; overflow may
occur as heat expands the oil.
2. Ensure that the power cord(s) is/are
plugged into the appropriate receptacle(s).
Verify that the face of the plug is flush with
the outlet plate, with no portion of the
prongs visible.
3. Ensure that the power is switched on.
Some models are equipped with a master
switch located behind the fryer door cabinet
on the front panel of the component box,
next to the fuse.
4. Ensure that the computer/controller is
switched ON. See controller quick
reference.
5. Ensure that the oil level is at the top OIL
LEVEL line when the oil is at its cooking
temperature. It may be necessary to add oil
or shortening to bring the level up to the
proper mark, after it has reached cooking
temperature.
Filter Preparation
1. Pull the filter pan out from the cabinet and
remove the crumb tray, hold-down ring,
filter paper and filter screen. Clean all
components with a solution of detergent
and hot water then dry thoroughly.
2. Inspect the filter pan connection fitting to
ensure that both O-rings are in good
condition.
3. Place the metal filter screen in the center of
the bottom of the pan. Lay a sheet of filter
paper on top of the screen, overlapping on
all sides. If using a filter pad, ensure the
rough side of the pad is up and lay the pad
over the screen, making sure that the pad is
in between the embossed ridges of the filter
pan.
4. Position the hold-down ring over the filter
paper and lower the ring into the pan,
allowing the paper to rest on the sides of the
filter pan. Add the manufacturer’s
recommended measure of filter powder.
Filtering
1. Make sure the oil is at operating
temperature. Follow the controller’s
prompts if the fryer is so equipped. Or
turn the controller off and follow these
steps.
2. Drain the frypot into the filter pan by
rotating the valves 90º. If necessary, use
the Fryer's Friend clean-out rod to
clear the drain from inside the frypot.
3. After the oil has drained from the
frypot, turn the filter handle to the ON
position to start the pump and begin the
filtering process. There may be a slight
delay before the pump activates.
4. The filter pump draws the oil
through the filter medium and
through the frypot. Allow the oil to
circulate for five minutes.
5. Close the drain valve and allow the
fryer to refill. Let the filter pump
run 10 to 15 seconds after the oil
begins to bubble. Turn the filter off.
Shut Down
1. Turn the fryer off.
2. Filter the cooking oil and clean the
fryers.
3. Place the frypot covers on the frypots.
Oil Changes

controller displays TOPOFF OIL
EMPTY in the left display and
CONFIRM in the right display. Press
(CONFIRM).
2. Open the cabinet and slide the JIB from
the cabinet.
3. Remove the cap and pour any remaining
oil in the container into all fry vats
equally.
4. With the jug upright remove the cap and
foil seal.
