4-3
DANGER
NEVER attempt to clear a clogged drain valve from the front of the valve! Hot oil will
rush out creating the potential for severe burns.
DO NOT hammer on the drain valve with the cleanout rod or other objects. Damage
to the ball inside will result in leaks and will void the Frymaster warranty.
2. After the oil has drained from the frypot,
turn the filter handle to the ON position
to start the pump and begin the filtering
process. There may be a slight delay
before the pump activates.
Turn the filter handle to the ON position.
3. The filter pump draws the oil through the filter pad/paper and screen and circulates it back up to
and through the frypot during a 5-minute process called polishing. Polishing cleans the oil by
trapping solid particles in the filter pad.
4. After the oil is filtered (about 5 minutes), close the drain valve and allow the fryer to refill. Let
the filter pump run 10 to 12 seconds after the oil begins to bubble in the frypot then turn the filter
off.
WARNING
The filter pump is equipped with a manual reset switch (see photo below) in case the
filter motor overheats or an electrical fault occurs. If this switch trips, turn off power
to the filter system and allow the pump motor to cool 20 minutes before attempting
to reset the switch.

5. Lower the elements into the frypot and reinstall the basket support rack.
6. Ensure the drain valve is fully closed. (If the drain valve is not fully closed, the fryer will not
operate.) Turn the fryer ON and allow the oil to reach setpoint.
Open valve by moving
handle to the right.
