B. Filtering Process ‐
9. Complete the filtering procedure as follows.
• In the lower cabinet of the unit being filtered, place the OIL RETURN valve handle ⑥
to the [FILL POT] position
• Ensure the OIL WAND handle ⑤ and WASTE OIL handle ⑦ (if equipped) are in the
[CLOSE] position (on banked units, these valves are located in the main unit with
filter pan) .
• On the unit being filtered ... Slowly move the DRAIN valve
handle ⑧ to the [OPEN] position (fully right to a stop).
Oil should begin draining from vat.
If oil does not readily
drain, use the provided round ‐ bristle Drain Brush to break up
residue that might be blocking the vat drain
.
• After the majority of used oil has drained into the filter
pan , place Pump Switch ⑨ on control panel in the
[PUMP] position (on banked systems, switch is located on
the unit with filter pan).
• Filter pump will start, drawing oil through the filter media and pumping it back into the cook vat. Leave the
drain valve open and allow oil to continually recirculate as a
“crumb wash” to flush crumbs and residue into the
filter pan . During this time use the provided soft ‐ bristle, heat ‐ resistant Pot Brush and round ‐ bristle Element
Brush to clean residue from vat sides and heating elements, allowing it to be flushed out of the vat.
• After 3 to 5 minutes , slowly return the DRAIN valve handle ⑧ to the [CLOSE] position (fully left to a stop) and
allow the vat to refill with filtered/reconditioned cooking oil.
• When vat has filled and no more oil is being discharged from the oil return fitting, return Pump Switch ⑨ to
the [OFF] position, and then return the OIL RETURN valve ⑥ to the [CLOSE] position.
• Visually confirm that oil level is satisfactorily between the [ADD] & [FULL] level marks. Add fresh oil as needed.
If Top ‐ Off option is installed, refer to Section 4.03, Oil Top ‐ Off, .
• Press the [CLEAR] key to return fryer to PREHEAT mode and place the Heat Switch ③ in the [HEAT] position to
begin reheating oil to set cooking temperature.
