This high temperature control is a manual reset control which
senses the temperature of the shortening. If the shortening
temperature exceeds 420°F (215OC), this control switch will
open and shut off the heat to the cookpot. When the
temperature of the shortening drops to a safe operation limit,
the control must be manually reset. The reset button is located
above the filter knob in the front of the cooker. This will allow
heat to be supplied to the cookpot.
Before replacing a high temperature limit control, check to
see that its circuit is closed.
The shortening temperature must be below 380°F
(193°C) to accurately perform this check.
1. Remove electrical power supplied to the fryer.
Remove electrical power supplied to the fryer by
unplugging the unit, or by turning off the wall circuit
breaker or electrical shock could result.
2. Remove the control panel.
3. Remove the two electrical wires from the high
temperature limit control.
4. Manually reset the control, then check for continuity
between the two terminals after resetting the control. If
the circuit is open, replace the control, then continue with
this procedure. (If the circuit is closed, the high limit.is
not defective. Reconnect the two electrical wires.)
