PROBLEM PROBABLE CAUSE SOLUTION (Follow Sequentially)
Motor runs but will not pump oil. A. Solidified shortening may have
plugged pipes.
Turn on fat melter for 20 minutes. This will heat
filter tub and pipes to free system of solidified
shortening. Reset motor before attempting filtering
(reset button is located on rear of pump motor).
B. Tub not set up properly. Place components in tub per the following:
1. Filter screen on the very bottom.
2. Filter paper over filter screen (Lie it flat on the
bottom, creasing the sides).
3. Hold down ring (ensure paper is not folded,
lock hold down ring into place ensuring a tight
seal).
4. Sprinkle Acidox powder evenly over filter
paper (1 bag per 40 lbs. of oil).
5. Strainer basket for large debris.
Motor does not operate. A. Not plugged in.
B. Motor has overheated.
C. Motor pump is clogged.
1. Plug filter into a 120 or 220 Vac electrical
power source.
2. Turn ON/OFF switch to ‘ON’.
1. Allow motor to cool for approximately 10
minutes.
2. Press the motor overload reset button and try
again.
1. Call a qualified service technician to clean
your pump. Clogged motor pumps are not
covered by warranty.
Preventative maintenance should be performed during & after each use of the filter. Following preventative maintenance
procedures will help to keep your filter working efficiently. Proper care & servicing will lead to years of quality performance.
PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
Familiarize yourself with the proper filtering procedure prior to attempting to filter:
1. To remove water, stir oil until bubbling stops; water will clog filter paper pores.
2. Use only one sheet of filter paper properly sealed under hold down ring.
3. Do NOT turn on fat melt without oil in filter tub.
4. Use a drain clean out rod if partial or full blockage in fryer drain is suspected.
5. If filter was used for fryer boil out, run oil through filter to lubricate motor/pump.
6. Clean filter and all components after each use. Do not permit oil to remain in filter drawer; it will clog the pump.
7. Verify all lights and controls operate.
8. Adhere to operating instructions in sequence given for proper filtration.
9. Prepare filter for next use by using new filter paper and Acidox Powder for each fryer.
