4. Slowly rotate the OVAL DRAIN VALVE HANDLE (item 19) to the OPEN position.
The oil will drain from the kettle. If the kettle does not drain, unplug the drain by using the
WOOD CLEANOUT DOWEL provided with the fryer. Unplug the drain by pushing the dowel
down through the drain hole in the bottom front center of the kettle.
5. Press the POWER SWITCH to the FILTER position. The filter pump will circulate the oil
through the filter leaf, returning it to the kettle.
6. Using the HIGH TEMPERATURE BRUSH and “T”-SHAPED SCRAPER that were supplied
with the fryer, brush/scrape down the frypot sides and bottom to loosen crumbs and flush them
from the fryer.
7. Be aware that filter powder and crumbs wil accumulate on the FILTER LEAF. If the oil is slow
to return to the frypot because of a plugged filter leaf, use the STAINLESS STEEL SHOVEL
supplied with the fryer to scoop the debris from the filter leaf top surface (see page 25).
8. When filtering is complete (5 -7 minutes of pump running with the drain valve open), rotate the
OVAL DRAIN VALVE HANDLE to the CLOSED position.
9. When bubbles begin to appear in the oil being pumped into the frypot, wait approximately
fifteen (15) seconds. Then, press the POWER SWITCH to the OFF position.
IMPORTANT: VERIFY THAT ALL OIL HAS BEEN RETURNED TO THE KETTLE AT
THE END OF THE FILTERING CYCLE.
10. Service the FILTER LEAF after each day’s filtration, or as needed to return oil promptly to the
kettle.
