The electric model fryer uses 2 heating elements.
Heating elements are available in 208, 220/240, 380 and
415 volts. Check the data plate, on the shroud behind the
lid, to determine the correct voltage elements.
1. Remove the electrical power supplied to the unit.
To avoid electrical shock or property damage, move the
power switch to OFF and disconnect main circuit
breaker, or unplug cord at wall receptacle.
2. Remove the control panel.
3. Remove both side panels.
4. Remove upper screws and loosen the lower screws, to the
front control shroud, and hinge it down. (See photo at left)
To avoid electrical shock, make connections before
applying power, take reading, and remove power
before removing meter leads. The following checks are
performed with the wall circuit breaker closed and the
main power switch in the ON position.
5. Perform an amp check on one heating element at a time
with the wires connected to the contactors. The 2 heaters
actually have 3 small heating elements on the inside of the
outer plate. It is important to check between the correct
wires to obtain the accurate amp reading. The wires are
labeled for your convenience.
