Excessive oil accumulation on the exterior of the fry pot may indicate the fryer is
having a hardware issue or the operator is not following recommended operating
procedures. With both side panels and the back shroud removed, clean off the oil
accumulation, and then use a flashlight to inspect the fry pot, fry pot welds, fry pot
plumbing and fittings, and the probe and element fittings.
If the fry pot is suspected of leaking, do the following:
• If the oil accumulation is toward the upper half of the fry pot, take the fryer out of
service immediately, and replace the fryer.
• 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 or other
operator error, do the following:
If necessary, scrape and clean off the existing oil from the fry pot and welds, and then
have the store bread and cook 4 head or greater of bone in chicken. During cooking,
monitor the suspected area for leaking:
• If oil is pushed out of the fry pot or welded areas while the fryer is under pressure,
take the fryer out of service and replace the fryer.
