CHAPTER 6: PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE
6-2
6.3 Periodic/Annual
This appliance should be inspected and adjusted periodically by qualified service personnel as part
of a regular kitchen maintenance program.
Frymaster and Dean recommend that a Factory Authorized Service Technician should inspect
this appliance at least annually, as follows:
• Inspect the cabinet inside-and-out, front-and-rear for excessive oil build-up.
• Verify that debris or accumulations of solidified oil or shortening do not obstruct the flue
opening.
• Verify that burners and associated components (e.g., gas valves, pilot assemblies, ignitors)
are in good condition and functioning properly. Inspect all gas connections for leaks and
verify that all connections are properly tightened.
• Verify that the burner manifold pressure matches the pressure specified on the fryer’s rating
plate.
• Verify that the temperature and high-limit probes are connected, tightened, and functioning
properly, and that mounting hardware and probe guard are present and properly installed.
• Verify that component box components (e.g., computer/controller, transformers, relays,
interface boards) are in good condition and free of oil build-up and other debris. Inspect the
component box wiring and verify that connections are tight and that wiring is in good
condition.
• Verify that all safety features (e.g., drain safety switches, reset switches) are present and
functioning properly.
• Verify that the frypot/cookpot is in good condition and free of leaks and that the
frypot/cookpot insulation is in serviceable condition. Verify that the frypot tube diffusers are
present and in good condition (i.e. no visible deterioration or damage).
• Verify that wiring harnesses and connections are tight and in good condition.
Built-in Filtration:
• Inspect all oil-return and drain lines for leaks and verify that all connections are tight.
• Inspect the filter pan for leaks and cleanliness. If there is a large accumulation of crumbs in
the crumb basket, advise the owner/operator that the crumb basket should be emptied into a
fireproof container and cleaned daily.
• Verify that all O-rings and seals, including those on quick-disconnect fittings, are present and
in good condition. Replace O-rings and seals if worn or damaged.
