Filtering Procedure
Breaded foods require frequent filtering. An excess amount of breading left in the fryer pot will reduce the
life of the shortening. We recommend the shortening be filtered after every three frying cycle loads. If the
shortening starts to show signs of foaming or has a bad taste, do not use it. The fryer pot should be
cleaned before refilling with new shortening. Best results for filtering are obtained while the shortening is
hot. You should filter at the end of every business day.
Always wear appropriate personal protection equipment during the filtering
process to guard against possible injury from hot oil.
1. Set
the
FILTER/OFF/FRY
switch to
OFF
.
2. Make certain that the filter pad is clean and not torn.
IMPORTANT:
Make certain the vat cover is properly positioned underneath the drain valve.
Also make certain the filter vat and filter screen is under the main drain valve before starting
the filtering process.
3. Move the DRAIN handle slowly to the OPEN position so that the shortening starts to flow
evenly. This is to prevent excessive splashing of hot shortening.
4. When the pot is empty, place the DRAIN handle in the CLOSED position.
To refill the pot automatically, use the steps below:
•
Place the FILL handle to the THRU POT position.
•
Position
the
FILTER/OFF/FRY
switch to
FILTER
and shortening will automatically pump
into the pot.
•
Let the filter continue to pump the shortening until the fill mark in the fryer pot is reached
or until air starts bubbling through the shortening.
•
As soon as air is seen in the shortening, first place the FILL handle to the THRU HOSE
position then position the
FILTER/OFF/FRY
switch to
OFF
to prevent shortening
degradation and prevent the filter pump and lines from filling up with shortening.
•
Add new shortening if the fill mark has not been reached.
