CHAPTER 1: SERVICE PROCEDURES
1-15
1.7.6 Replacing the Frypot
Unit should be at room temperature, disconnected from gas and electrical service, and empty of oil
or shortening prior to beginning procedure.
1.7.6.1 Frypot Baffle Inspection
1. Remove cabinet door(s) by holding door and lifting up on hinge pin. Current production model
doors have spring-loaded pins that must be disengaged from the control panel and the bottom
hinge. Remove marine edge (if applicable) by lifting up and off topcap and set aside.
2. The burner-tube retainer strip and burner tubes must be removed from the frypot/firebox being
inspected. Remove the burner-tube shield and the burner-tube retainer from the burner-box and
set aside. Lift the burner tubes up over each orifice and then pull outward to remove.
3. Disconnect the pilot gas-supply tube and
remove the pilot assembly (without
electronic ignition), or disconnect the
sense wire and ignition cable and remove
the direct-spark ignitor assembly (with
electronic ignition). Inspect frypot baffles
for signs of burn-through or damage. If
baffle burn-through or damage is visible,
proceed to the next section. If not, and no
further service to frypot/firebox is
required, reverse the above steps to
reassemble the fryer.
Inspect frypot baffles through burner tube opening
(arrow) for signs of burn-through or damage.
