up.
11. Remove any joiner strips from the center of frypots on two battery or larger units. Be careful not to bend the
joiner strip during removal.

gently out of the rubber boots. Set aside for reassembly.
17. Remove the burner retaining shields and plates by loosening the screw on each end.
18. Remove the burners to gain access to the temperature probe and to ease removal. Remove one burner at a time.
Loosen the two screws attaching the burner to the burner rail. Slide the burner up until the heads of the two
screws reach the round key holes and lean it slightly toward from the frypot to clear the burner rail and seal
