Pull filter draw out from under fryer

Remove Filter Strainer Cap and place aside

Unscrew the pickup tube counterclockwise to detach from filter pickup assembly

Slide off the filter paper clip

Remove used filter paper from filter screen. Dispose dirty paper directly into the bin

Replace with new filter paper, ensuring that the hole in the paper is on the top, so that the fitting in the filter screen protrudes through

Ensure the filter paper is folded to the underside of filter screen. This is to ensure the dirty oil can’t flow out the opening and enter back into the fryer.

Replace the filter paper clip and place back into filter draw

Re-attach filter pickup tube to the filter screen by screwing clockwise into the threaded fitting in filter screen

Place Filter Strainer Cap back onto the Filter Pickup Assembly

When closing the draw, ensure the Strainer Cap snaps tightly and securely into the donut fitting
