WARNING
Do not add HOT or USED oil to a JIB.
WARNING
NEVER drain boil out or cleaning solution into a shortening disposal unit (SDU), a built-in filtration unit, a
portable filter unit, or an OQS (Oil Quality Sensor). These units are not intended for this purpose, and will
be damaged by the solution and void the warranty.
DANGER
When draining oil into a disposal unit, do not fill above the maximum fill line located on the container.
DANGER
Allow oil to cool to 100°F (38°C) before draining into an appropriate METAL container for disposal.
DANGER
When draining oil into an appropriate SDU or METAL container, ensure the container will hold at least
FOUR gallons (15 liters) or more for FQE30 or FQG30 fryers, or EIGHT gallons (30 liters) or more for
1814E or 1814G fryers. Otherwise oil could overflow and can cause injury.
DANGER
When draining boil out solution oil into an appropriate METAL container, ensure the container will hold at
least FOUR gallons (15 liters) or more for FQE30 or FQG30 fryers, or EIGHT gallons (30 liters) or more for

DANGER
Open the filter pan slowly to avoid splashing of hot oil that may cause severe burns, slipping and falling.
DANGER
Ensure that the frypot and filter pan are completely dry and free of water before filling with oil. Failure to
do so will cause splattering of hot liquid when the oil is heated to cooking temperature.
WARNING
The on-site supervisor is responsible for ensuring that operators are made aware of the inherent hazards of
operating a hot oil filtering system, particularly the aspects of oil filtration, draining and cleaning
procedures.
DANGER
Do not drain more than one frypot at a time into the built-in filtration unit to avoid overflow and spillage of
hot oil that may cause severe burns, slipping and falling.
WARNING
Never drain water into the filter pan. Water will damage the filter pump
WARNING
Ensure a filter paper/pad is in place prior to filtering, draining or disposing of oil. Failure to insert a filter
paper/pad may result in clogged lines and/or pumps.

DANGER
DO NOT drain more than one full frypot or two split frypots into the SDU at one time to avoid overflow and
spillage of hot oil that may cause severe burns, slipping and falling.
WARNING
Never operate the filter system without oil in the system.
WARNING
Never use the filter pan to transport old oil to the disposal area.
WARNING
Never leave the fryer unattended during the boil out process. If the solution overflows, press the ON/OFF
