of oil filtration, draining and cleaning procedures.

Preparing the Built-In Filtration System for Use
The FootPrint Pro filtration system allows the oil in one frypot to be safely and efficiently filtered
while the other frypots in a battery remain in operation. The FootPrint Pro filtration system is
available in three different configurations:
•
Filter Paper – includes crumb tray, large hold-down ring, and metal filter screen.
•
Filter Pad – includes crumb tray, small hold-down ring, and metal filter screen.
•
Magnasol Filter – includes crumb tray and Magnasol filter assembly.
Section 4.1.1 covers preparation of the Filter Paper and Filter Pad configurations for use. Refer to
Section 4.1.2 for instructions on preparing the Magnasol Filter configuration for use. Operation of
all three configurations is the same and is covered in section 4.3. Disassembly and reassembly of the
Magnasol filter is covered in section 4.4.
