The following steps will help prevent filter pump problems:
1. Make certain the charcoal filter is installed with the smooth
side down and the arms on the frame are clamped down over
the protrusions on the outside of the frame.
2. The filter valve is to be closed at all times during frying.
3. Pump all the shortening from the filter lines by running the filter
pump motor until the shortening in the frypot appears to be
bubbling or boiling.
3-10. CHANGING THE
FILTER ENVELOPE
The filter envelope should be changed after 10-12 filterings or when-
ever it becomes clogged with crumbs. Proceed as follows:
1. Move the main power switch to the OFF position.
2. Remove and empty the condensation drain pan.
3. Disconnect the filter union and remove the drain pan from
under the frypot. If available, a drain pan may have casters
under it, allowing easy transport of filter pan and filter
assembly.
This union could be hot! Use protective cloth or glove,
or severe burns could result.
If the filter pan is moved while full of shortening, use
care to prevent splashing, or burns could result.
4. Lift the screen assembly from the drain pan.
5. Wipe the shortening and crumbs from the drain pan. Clean
the drain pan with soap and water, then thoroughly rinse with
hot water.
