2. Position a Shortening Disposal Unit (SDU) or a metal stock pot with a sealable cover under the
drainpipe. (The pot must be able to withstand the heat of the cooking oil/shortening and hold hot
liquids.) If you intend to reuse the oil or shortening, Frymaster recommends that our filter cone
holder and filter cone be used when a filter machine is not available. If you are using a
Frymaster filter cone holder, be sure that the cone holder rests securely on the SDU or pot.
3. Open the drain valve slowly to avoid splattering. If the drain valve becomes clogged with food
particles, use the Fryer’s Friend cleanout rod to clear the blockage.
DANGER
DO NOT insert the cleanout rod into the drain from the front to unclog the valve. Hot
oil/shortening will rush out, creating an extreme hazard.
DO NOT hammer on the drain valve. This will damage the drain valve ball and
prevent the valve from sealing securely, resulting in a leaky valve.
4. After draining the oil/shortening, clean all food particles and residual oil/shortening from the
frypot. BE CAREFUL, this material may still cause severe burns if it comes in contact with bare
skin.
5. Close the drain valve securely and fill the frypot with a solution of automatic dishwasher
detergent and water to the bottom OIL-LEVEL line. (Frymaster recommends the use of
Frymaster Boil-Out Solution, available through your local distributor, for best results.)
6. Set the thermostat to 195ºF (91ºC) or program the computer for Boil-Out (see separate Frymas-
ter Fryer Controllers User’s Manual) and simmer the solution for 1 hour.
WARNING
Never leave the fryer unattended during this process. If the solution overflows,
press the ON/OFF switch to the OFF position immediately.
7. After the solution has simmered for 1 hour, press the ON/OFF switch to the OFF position and
allow the solution to cool.
8. Drain the solution into a suitable container (NOT the built-in filtration system filter pan or
the Shortening Disposal Unit) and thoroughly wipe the frypot with a clean towel.
9. Close the drain valve and fill the frypot with clean, cold water and drain into a suitable container
(NOT the built-in filtration system filter pan or the Shortening Disposal Unit). Repeat the
rinse process again, and then wipe frypot with a clean, dry towel.
DANGER
Ensure that the frypot is completely free of water before filling with cooking oil or
shortening. When the oil or shortening is heated to cooking temperature, water in
the frypot will cause splattering.
