Inspect for leaking fry pot
Inspection

With the side panels removed, use a flashlight to inspect the fry pot, fry pot welds, cold zone
welds and fry pot plumbing fittings (figure 1). If there is oil accumulation anywhere on the
exterior of the fry pot, this could be a sign that the pot is leaking. If the oil accumulation is
toward the upper half of the fry pot, take the fryer out of service until the fryer is replaced. If
the oil accumulation is toward the lower half of the fry pot and it is not evident if the oil
accumulation is due to the store using a drain pan without a cover, scrape existing oil off of the
weld and then have the store bread and cook 4 head or greater of OR (bone in chicken). During
cooking, monitor the suspect area for leaking. If oil is pushed out of this area while the fryer is
under pressure, take the fryer out of service and replace the fryer. If the pot is not leaking, take
the fryer out of service until the oil accumulation is removed and the store operates the fryer
with a drain pan cover. Contact Henny Penny with any questions regarding fry pot warranty.
