Introduction
The Pitco CPF-65 Compact Portable Filter is designed to
filter food and other sediment from the cooking oil used in
your deep fat fryer. The unit is portable, for convenient use.
If you do not filter regularly, the shortening or cooking oil
may become contaminated and break down. The Pitco
Portable Filter removes most microscopic particles,
moisture, and free fatty acids from the oil. By using the
Pitco CPF-65 Portable Filter regularly, you will produce
better-cooked, and better-tasting food. By extending the life
of your oil, the CPF-65 will pay for itself many times over.
The CPF-65 filter unit can be stored out of the way, and
rolls easily to wherever it is needed. The low profile allows
the unit to roll directly under the drain valve outlet extension
nipple on the fryer. This makes it easier to drain the fryer.
The inner area of the pan is free of clamps and brackets for
easy cleaning. The large filtering area assures fast filtering.

Safety Notes
Warning!
Please read all of the instructions in this manual
before you attempt to operate your CPF-65 Pitco Filter.
To ensure that the unit is always used in a safe
manner, a copy of this brochure should be available at
all times. If the brochure is either lost or misplaced,
please contact the manufacturer for additional copies.
Warning!
When the filter is operating, the oil in the fryer may be
hotter than 375° (190°C). This hot oil can cause you to
be burned very badly. Do not let the hot oil touch your
skin or clothing. Always wear oil-proof insulated
gloves when filtering hot oil.
Warning!
The filter return hose assembly was designed with a
safety control switch to rinse the fry tank when
cleaning and to return clean filtered oil to the fry tank
after filtering. Added caution should be taken at all
times to ensure total safety to the operator and to
others in the area w hen using this assembly.
Warning!
Never jam the pump switch in the "on" position or
operate the unit while it is unattended.
