FLATBOTTOM SERIES ELECTRIC FRYERS
CHAPTER 4: UNDER FRYER FILTER (UFF) OPERATION
4.1 General
Upon initial installation and before each use, remove all loose parts from the filter, wash the filter
pan and loose parts in hot, soapy water, and dry thoroughly.
Cooking oil or shortening should be filtered at least daily, or more frequently if cooking is heavy.
This maximizes the useful life of the oil or shortening, imparts a better flavor to the product being
prepared and minimizes flavor transfer.
WARNING
LEAVE FRYER OFF FOR A MINIMUM OF 10 MINUTES PRIOR TO FILTERING TO
ALLOW FRYPOT HEAT TO DISSIPATE. FRYPOT DAMAGE CAN OCCUR IF THE OIL
IS DRAINED IMMEDIATELY AFTER TURNING FRYER OFF.
DANGER
THE CRUMB TRAY IN FRYERS EQUIPPED WITH A FILTER SYSTEM MUST BE
EMPTIED INTO A FIREPROOF CONTAINER AT THE END OF FRYING OPERATIONS
EACH DAY. SOME FOOD PARTICLES CAN SPONTANEOUSLY COMBUST IF LEFT
SOAKING IN CERTAIN SHORTENING MATERIAL.
4.2 Filter Assembly

Before any filtering, all components of the filter pan and leaf filter assemblies should be
