gauge
The deadweight valve and safety relief valve are located side
by side at the back of unit. The valve next to the pressure gauge
is the operating control valve, and the other valve is a 14 1/2 lb.
safety relief valve.
Valves are working properly, when OPERATING ZONE is
indicated on gauge by the pointer. The gauge pointer should not
normally exceed operating zone. At 14 1/2 psi, the safety relief
valve opens to release steam pressure from the frypot.
DO NOT MANUALLY ACTIVATE THE SAFETY RE-
LIEF VALVE. HOT STEAM RELEASES FROM THE
VALVE WHEN THE RING IS PULLED. KEEP BODY
PARTS AWAY FROM SAFETY VALVE EXHAUST, OR
SEVERE BURNS COULD RESULT.
Cleaning Steps
1. Clean the deadweight valve, at the end of each day. Turn
the fryer OFF and release all the pressure. Open the lid and
then remove the deadweight valve cap and deadweight.
2. Place both the cap and weight in hot detergent water and
clean. Make certain to thoroughly clean inside cap, the
weight seat, and around the deadweight orifice.
3. Rinse thoroughly with hot water. Dry parts and replace
immediately to prevent damage or loss.
