2. Inspect the filter pan connection fitting

3. Then in reverse order, place the metal filter screen in the center of the bottom of the pan, then lay
a filter pad over the screen, ensuring that the textured side of the pad is up. Make sure that the
pad is in between the embossed ridges of the filter pan then position the hold down ring on top of
the pad. If using filter paper, lay a sheet of filter paper over the top of the pan overlapping on all
sides. Position the hold down ring over the filter paper and lower the ring into the pan, allowing
the paper to fold up and around the ring as it is pushed to the bottom of the pan. Then sprinkle 8-
ounces of filter powder over the filter paper.
4. Reinstall the crumb tray at the front of the pan. (See Figure 1)
DO NOT use filter powder with the pad!
5. Replace the crumb tray in the filter pan. Push the filter pan back into the fryer, positioning it all
the way to the back of the cabinet. The filtration system is now ready for use.
4.4 Operation of the Filter
DANGER
Draining and filtering of oil must be accomplished with care to avoid the possibility
of a serious burn. The oil to be filtered is at or near 350°F (177°C). Ensure drain
handles are in their proper position before operating any switches or valves. Wear
all appropriate safety equipment when draining and filtering cooking oil.
DANGER
NEVER attempt to drain oil from the fryer with the burners lit! Doing so will cause
irreparable damage to the frypot and may cause a flash fire. Doing so will also void
the Frymaster warranty.
1. Turn the fryer power OFF. Drain the
frypot into the filter pan by rotating the
larger handle valves to the right. If
necessary, use the Fryer's Friend clean-
out rod to clear the drain from inside the
frypot.
DANGER
Do not drain more than one full vat or a split vat frypot at a time into the built-in
filtration unit to avoid overflow and spillage of hot oil.
