Specifications
IMPORTANT: The following instructions for discarding old 
oil from this fryer are to be disregarded if you
possess a Mobile Oil Caddy. This manual oil
pump/removal system allows you to hand
pump the used oil directly from the fry pot into
the Mobile Oil Caddy. You may then pump the
oil into the oil disposal drum by reversing the
pump rotation.
REMEMBER - Always and without fail, allow the oil to cool,
prior to pumping the oil into the Mobile Oil
Caddy. 
HOT OIL WILL BURN YOU.
BURN HAZARD • HOT OIL
Oil must cool to 120°F (49°C) or cooler before
draining oil from the fryer for disposal. Normal
operation temperature of the fryer is 375°F
(191°C). Death or serious injury will result from
contact with hot oil.
SLIPPING & FALLING HAZARD • 
SPILLED OIL
➔Do not use the filter reservoir to discard oil.
➔Do not fill disposal container more than 1/2 full.
➔Do not leave fryer unattended when draining
oil. Oil spills may occur. Death or serious
injury can occur from slipping and falling in
spilled oil.
BURN HAZARD • FILTER RESERVOIR
When removing the filter reservoir after filtering
oil, wear insulated gloves, or allow it time to cool.
The hot oil will quickly heat the reservoir.
Serious burns could result from touching the hot
filter reservoir with bare hands.

pipe from the drain valve. Store this item in a convenient
place.
