MODEL # HF 80, HF 130 & HF 165
Description
All FILTRATOR filters are completely
self contained - cart, container and power
unit combined into one compact portable
unit. The container, container cover, cart,
power unit housing, base, and “T” handle
are stainless steel. All other exterior
surfaces are nickel-plated steel. Pumps
are specially machined to handle high
temperature edible oils. The specially
fabricated 48” hose is designed for the
same purpose with embedded wire
reinforcement. The unit is equipped with
a ½ H.P. heavy-duty motor. The 15 ½ x
15 ½ square screen can be used with either
a cloth filter for heavy sediment
conditions or a paper envelope for light
sediment conditions.
Electrical Specifications
110-115 VAC, ½ H.P., 60 HZ, 8.8-7.4
AMP, 1.0 SF. Equipped with oil proof
lead wire cord and molded 3 prong
grounding plug. Thermal and torque
overload protection also provided.

Before attaching hoses to the power unit, make sure the motor is operative by plugging it into an electrical outlet and
turning on the switch. If the motor does not run, turn it off immediately and refer to the “SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS”
sheet for information. Please read the important safety instruction sheet before operating.
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Slide container into cart with square end to the rear of cart. Place power unit on
top of the cart with the ‘SUCTION” side (see arrow on label on top of power unit)
facing toward the container.
Filter Screen Assembly – Place filter cloth bag or paper envelope over the screen
so that the hole of the cloth bag or the paper envelope allows the threaded stem of
the filter screen to poke through. Fold cloth bag or paper envelope over the top of
the screen and place clamp over the screen to hold filter in place. Attach filter
screen stem to screen and place the filter screen assembly in the container. The
clamped end of the filter screen should be toward the rear end of the container.
Attach union nut to “SUCTION” side of the power unit. Tighten union nut by
hand only.
Once the filter screen assembly is in place, slide the container cover over the
container. The four slots of the cover should face toward the front end of the
container. The half round piece of the cover is assembled by placing the tabs
through the slotted holes.
Attach discharge hose and nozzle to “DISCHARGE” side of the power unit and
hand tighten the union nut. (Never use wrench to tighten).
Slide the “T” handle into the handle holder on the cart. Insert retaining pin
through both sides of the “T” handle holder bracket.
ASSEMBLY OF YOUR PRE FILTER
CAREFULLY place the long rod support through the top opening of the PRE
FILTER material.
Place the support rod on the container rim with the round portion of the filter
facing the rounded end of the container.
Place the flap of the PRE filter over the edge of the container. This will secure the
filter in place.
Your HF Series is now assembled & ready to operate using the operating
instructions below
OPERATION WITH YOUR PRE FILTER
Drain the oil from the fryer through the Pre filter into the container. The sediment will
become trapped allowing the oil to pass through. Once the filtering is completed and
the oil is returned to the fryer, remove the filter to your cleaning area. CAREFULLY
lift the Pre filter from the container. Allow any residual oil to drain from the Pre filter.
Once the oil has drained, dump the sediment into your waste receptacle. Wash, rinse
and dry the Peek filter and return it to its position on the container.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION: Oil/shortening will cause parts to become hot. Use care when handling to
avoid injury.
Open the door of the fryer and roll the HF SERIES up to the fryer so that the front end
of the container is under the drain valve. Plug power unit into an electrical outlet.
You are now ready to begin draining your frypot and filtering your oil/shortening.
With oil/shortening at approximately 300°F, turn off fryer and take out the
crumb screen. Sprinkle one cup (8 oz. By volume) of FILTER POWDER
into the oil/shortening per 35-40 lbs. of oil. Mix the powder into the
oil/shortening. Lift the round half piece on the cover to an upright position
to allow oil to drain into the container. When properly positioned, the
rounded cover acts as a splashguard. Open the fryer drain valve to allow
oil/shortening to drain into the HF SERIES container. Turn on the power
unit. Caution: Make sure nozzle points toward the bottom of the fryer.
Oil/shortening will be recirculated into the fryer, and by directing the
nozzle, sediment can be washed out of the frypot. When the sediment has
been completely washed out from the fryer, turn power unit off. Close
fryer drain valve, and turn on power unit. The filtered oil/shortening is
now being pumped back into the fryer.
When the oil/shortening is returned completely to the fryer, turn off the power
unit, unplug and remove the HF SERIES. Replace crumb screen and turn
on the fryer. The fryer is now ready to use.
CARE & CLEANING OF HF SERIES
CAUTION: Be sure parts have cooled before handling/cleaning.
Remove the HF SERIES to your cleaning area. Remove cover from the
container and disconnect the filter screen assembly. Turn power unit 90° so that
the discharge and suction side of the power unit overhang the shelf of the cart.
Disconnect the discharge hose/nozzle from the power unit. Allow oil/shortening
to drain from the discharge hose into the container. Put hose aside. Tip power
unit so that the discharge side of the power unit faces down toward the container
to allow the oil/shortening to drain from the pump. Return power unit to its
proper position on the shelf of the cart.
DRAINING THE PUMP IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT
If the pump is not drained, hardened oil/shortening may prevent the pump from
rotating when the power is supplied to the motor.
While holding the screen assembly over the container, shake the screen to
remove sediment from the cloth bag or paper envelope. Remove stem from
screen and then remove cloth bag or paper envelope from the screen. Clean the
screen stem assembly, container, cover, discharge hose/nozzle by washing,
rinsing and thoroughly drying each part. The screen can be separated by holding
the screen upside down and gently tapping the threaded stem on a hard surface.
The cloth filter bag can be reused once it has been washed. The power unit
housing, cart and outside parts of the container can also be cleaned using a
stainless steel cleaner/polish.
NOTE: DO NOT RUN WATER THROUGH PUMP.
After the HF SERIES has been cleaned, reassemble the various components,
replace the cloth filter bag or paper envelope on the screen. Attach the screen
stem to the power unit as well as the nozzle/DHA. Replace the pre filter on the
container and the unit is ready for the next filter cycle.
