3-9. FILTERING OF
SHORTENING
(Continued)
About 10 to 12 filterings can be made with one filter
paper envelope, depending on:
• the quantity and type of product fried and filtered
• the type of breading used
• the amount of crumbs left inside the filter drain pan;
When the filter screen assembly and filter paper become
clogged, and the pumping flow slows, clean
the screen assembly and change the filter envelope.
10. To continue cooking, turn the main power switch
to the on position. (Remove the element lift tool on
electric fryers.)
3-10. FILTER PUMP PROBLEM To help prevent filter pump problems:
PREVENTION
1. Properly install paper envelope over the filter screens.
Fold the open end of the envelope, and clamp with
retaining clips so that crumbs cannot enter. (See Figure
3-9)
Figure 3-9
2. Pump shortening, until no shortening is coming from
nozzle.
3-11. FILTER PUMP MOTOR In the event it overheats, the filter pump motor is equipped
PROTECTOR – MANUAL with a manual reset button located on the rear of the motor.
RESET After waiting 5 minutes to allow the motor to cool, press
the reset button. It takes some effort to reset the motor.
A screwdriver can be used to help press reset button.
Servicing of the filter pump is done at the side of the unit. If
service is required, disconnect the open fryer from the
electrical and/or gas power source.
To prevent burns caused by splashing shortening,
turn the unit's filter pump switch to the off
position before resetting the filter pump motor’s
manual reset protection device.
