Cleaning
GBF − 35 & GBF − 50 Fryers
1. Remove filter pan from fryer as necessary.
2. Remove & clean the Pan Cover ① and dry thoroughly.
3. Use the provided metal Crumb Shovel to remove as much
of the filter sediment accumulated on the filter media
surface, as possible ... particularly around the edge near the
hold ‐ down frame ③ . This will help prevent the pump
from being clogged by loose sediment that might fall
through the perforated
media support screen ⑤ & enter
the filter system.
4. Turn the four locking levers ② (attached to pan bottom),
disengage hold ‐ down frame ③ & remove.
5. Grasp one end of the soiled filter media ④ & carefully
remove it from pan. Avoid allowing loose filter sediment to
fall through the support screen.
6. Use a non ­ detergent, biodegradable degreaser solution to
thoroughly clean filter pan ⑥ & hold ­ down frame ③ .
Rinse thoroughly and dry completely. Flush out filter
sediment that may have fallen through the perforated
screen and be certain to drain all residual water from filter
pan hoses.

IMPORTANT!
The perforated, Support Screen ⑤ in the filter pan bottom is NOT a filter. Suitable filter media (reusable screen
or filter paper) must be used to avoid possible equipment damage. Failure to use proper filter media will void
the factory warranty!
