HIGH EFFICIENCY DECATHLON SERIES GAS FRYERS
1.7.7 Replacing the Frypot
15. Remove the drain manifold. Only the drain
tubes directly blocking the frypot being
replaced require removal.
- Remove the nuts holding the drain valve
strap onto the drain tube stud.
- Disconnect the Teflon tube at the back of
the center dump tube piece and any other
components
including drain flush flexlines.
- Loosen the nut on each clamp holding the
rubber boots and drain sections together.
- Carefully remove the tubes by pulling
down at an angle, straight out of the drain
valves, and working them gently out of the
rubber boots. Set aside for reassembly.
16. Remove the nipple attaching the oil return line
to the bottom of the frypot at the rear of the
fryer using a wrench. This may require
removal of other pieces of the oil return
manifold, as needed.
17. Remove the burner shield 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
(metal box attached to frypot). Then, pull the
burner up and off of the orifice. The burners
should be easy to remove and do not require
force.
19. Remove the burner rail when all burners have
been uninstalled. Loosen the screws on each
end of the rail and set it aside.
