Drain solution from fryer.
Place a 5-gallon (19-liter)
bucket under the fryer's drain.
Open the fryer drain valve far
enough to allow the solution
to flow slowly into the
bucket. Let 2 or 3 gallons of
solution drain into the bucket.
Close valve then change to an
empty bucket and let 2 or 3
gallons of solution drain into
the bucket. You will need
several buckets to drain the
fryer completely.
The cleaning solution should
be discarded or re-used in
another fryer within 3 hours.
After 3 hours, discard the
solution.
The solution will be very hot.
Avoid splashing.
