How To Use The Shortening Shuttle
®
Pump
The
Shortening Shuttle
®
Pump
has been designed for safety,
durability and ease of use. It is very maneuverable thus is well suited
to narrow aisles and tight spaces.
If the
Shortening Shuttle
®
Pump
has not been used in a while then
priming the pump is recommended. Start by removing the long hose quick
disconnect at the pump outlet. Pour about 1/4 -1/2 cup of clear oil (room
temperature or higher) into the pump.
Re-connect the long hose.
Rotate
the pump in reverse a couple of turns to coat it internally with oil.
Wheel the
Shortening Shuttle
®
Pump
to the fryer. Open the cover,
make sure that the Basket Strainer is
in place, then position the
Shortening
Shuttle
®
Pump
under the drain outlet.
Warning:
The Basket Strainer
must be used to catch debris
that may clog and/or solidify
in the pump causing damage
to the pump. Never fi ll the
the Shuttle Pump through
the Wand Storage Pipe.
Carefully drain the fryer oil through the Basket Strainer and into
the
Shortening Shuttle
®
Pump
. Be careful, too much oil fl ow may
cause splashing and/or overfl owing.
If the oil fl ow through the Basket Strainer becomes very slow
then stop the oil fl ow and after allowing it to cool, remove the Basket
Strainer and clean it. This is normal when the oil is very dirty and full
of large breading particles etc.
Alternately
you may use the hose and hand pump to pump the waste
fryer oil into the unit by reversing the normal pumping out rotation.
