5.05 Filtering Used Cooking Oil - continued
Never disconnect and attempt to remove the Filter Pan from unit while it contains HOT
cooking oil.
During the next steps cooking oil is drained from the vat, exposing the heating elements.
Even though safety interlocks are in place, failure to place the Selector Switch in the [OFF]
position before draining could result in fire. ALWAYS CONFIRM THAT THE SELECTOR SWITCH IS IN THE [OFF]
POSITION BEFORE DRAINING THE COOK VAT.
7. Confirm that Selector Switch
①
remains in the [OFF] position. In
the lower cabinet, verify the Pump Diverter Valve Handle
⑤
is in
the [OIL RETURN] position (perpendicular to pipe). Slowly rotate
Drain Valve T-Handle
⑥
to the [OPEN] position (vertical). Cooking

NOTE:
If the oil does not readily drain, use the provided Kettle Drain Brush
to break up crumbs or residue that might be blocking the vat drain.
Be careful not to push brush so far down as to puncture the filter
media in Pan, doing so could allow debris to pass through and clog,
or damage, the filter pump
8. When oil has completely drained into the Filter Pan, set the
Selector Switch
①
to the [FILTER PUMP] position.
9. The used oil will begin to circulate through the
filter media in the Pan and return to the fry vat.
Leave the Drain Valve open and allow oil to
continually circulate through the system for
about 5 minutes. During this time, use the
provided heat-resistant Brushes to dislodge
cooking residue from vat sides and heating
elements, so that it can be flushed into the
Filter Pan.
11. After about 5 minutes, return Drain Valve Handle
⑥
to the
[CLOSE] position (horizontal) and allow the vat to refill.
12. After the cooking vat has refilled, return the Selector Switch
①
to
the [OFF] position.
