4.3.3 Filtering Basics (cont.)
e When completing a filter cycle, always close the return valve(s) at the fryer(s) to avoid
siphoning oil out of the fryer into the filter system. Open the valve at the filter to promote
draining of the return lines into the filter pan.
e If using solid shortening, always ensure the return lines are clear before de-activating the
filter motor. Also, hang flexible hose lines up to drain to prevent solid shortening from
solidifying in the lines.
For filtration instructions and troubleshooting, consult the operating manual provided
with the filter unit.
4.3.4 Closing: End of Day
When closing at night:
e Filter the oil in all fryers and drain the filter lines.
e Cover oil-filled open frypot.
e Press red button to turn gas valve off.
4.3.5 Fryer Shut-Down
When closing down for periods longer than overnight:
e Drain the shortening and clean the frypot thoroughly.
e Discard or filter the shortening, then return filtered shortening to frypot. Install frypot cover
to prevent shortening contamination.
e Non-stainless Frypot Only: If shortening is discarded, lightly coat the inside of non-stainless
(mild steel) frypot with fresh shortening after cleaning to prevent rusting.
e Press red button to turn gas valve off.
e Turn the manual valve on the incoming gas service line to "OFF".
e Disconnect the portable or built-in filter power cord (if used) from the wall socket.
