13. Install new firebox into cabinet. Replace
screws (12) removed during removal of
the old firebox. Use spray adhesive (Zep
Aero Tac High-Strength Spray Adhesive
or equivalent) to install new insulation in
firebox bottom as shown. The insulation
must not go above the top of the burner-
box center flange.
NOTE: Ensure the strip of insulation is
properly affixed to the front blower-
housing flange (arrow) prior to installing
frypot. Failure to install the insulation
strip will result in frypot-baffle burnout,
blower damage and fryer malfunction,
and will void all applicable warranties.
14. Install new frypot, using care not to
damage the firebox insulation. Ensure
the blower-housing insulation strip
remains in place after installing the new
frypot (arrow).
Reverse the above steps to reassemble the
fryer. Use high-temp silicone to re-install
the top assembly (single fryers) or joiner
strips, flue caps, etc. (systems).
