The main gas valve will not open if the pilot valve is not open. Light the pilot fl ame manually using a match or the optional built-in piezo ignitor after installing the fryer. 1.1.2 Electronic Ignition In units confi...
These units have no interface board. When the melt cycle switch is placed in the ON position, the fryer stays in the melt cycle mode until the switch is manually placed in the OFF position, even if the oil is at setpoint temperature. In units equipped with thermostat access doors, the temperature control knob is located behind the hinged front panel.
After servicing is complete: 5. Return the fryer to its original location, reconnect the unit to the gas supply, and open the gas supply valve. Be sure to reattach all restraining devices and plug in all electrical cords. 6. Refi ll the fryer with oil.

1. Fill the frypot to the lower OIL-LEVEL line with cooking oil. If using solid shortening, pre-melt it before starting the calibration procedure. 2. Ensure the fryer power switch is in the OFF position, and light the pilot. (Refer to Chapter 3 of the Installation and Operation manual for detailed lighting instructions.) 3.
1.4 Replacing Fryer Components 1.4.1 Replacing a Controller or Computer 1. Disconnect the fryer from the electrical power supply. 2. Slide the metal bezel up to disengage the lower tabs. Then, slide the bezel down to disengage the upper tabs.
10. Reverse Steps 1-8 to install the replacement thermostat. 1.4.3 Replacing the Operating Thermostat in Units with Thermostat Access Doors 1. Disconnect the fryer from the electrical power supply. Turn off the gas and disconnect the fryer. 2. Drain the frypot.
3. Remove the thermostat knob and/or control panel as instructed in Section 1.4.2 or 1.4.3. 4. Disconnect the high-limit thermostat leads from the gas valve pilot coil. 5. Unscrew the high-limit thermostat from the fryer and remove. 6. Apply Loctite™ PST56765 thread sealant or equivalent to the threads of the replacement high-limit thermostat.
6. Unscrew the high-limit thermostat from the fryer and remove it. 7. Attach the appropriate terminals (instructions furnished in the replacement kit) to the thermostat leads. 8. Apply Loctite™ PST56765 thread sealant or equivalent to the threads of the replacement high-limit thermostat.
1.4.9 Replacing Burner Ceramic Targets 1. Disconnect the fryer from the electrical power supply. Turn off the gas and disconnect the fryer. 2. Drain the frypot or remove the handle from the drain valve. 3. Remove the round drain sections as necessary to expose the burners and heat shield.
Steps 3-8 in Section 1.4.3. NOTE: If the fryer is confi gured with a melt cycle, the thermostat leads will be connected to the PC board rather than to the terminal block and gas valve. Disconnect the leads from the PC board if this is the case.

Remove the screws in the top and bottom holes of each brace of the control panel that secure it to the fryer. Pull the control panel straight out of the fryer frame. It may require a rubber mallet to loosen it.
fi tting, allowing any residual oil to drain into the container. 4. At the rear of the fryer, unplug the left connector (as viewed from the rear of the fryer) from the transformer box. Using a pin pusher, push the pump solenoid valve wires from Pins 7 and 9.
Verify that the quick disconnect hose is properly connected, the fryer is plugged in, the main gas supply valve is open, and the circuit breaker for the fryer electrical supply is not tripped.

If the fryer is receiving gas and electrical power, the next most likely cause of ignition failure is a problem in the 24 VAC circuit of the pilot system. If the fryer is equipped with a drain valve for fi ltration purposes, check the drain valve to verify that it is fully closed.

Other causes of popping are more ambiguous and may have two or more possible causes to consider. If the fryer’s gas and air supplies are okay, it is likely that the cause of the popping is one of the electrical components.
(in fryers equipped with other types of controllers). Depending upon the specifi c confi guration of the fryer, it may also include an interface board and controller. Problems with improper temperature control can be categorized into those issues concerning melt cycle malfunctions and those concerning a failure to control at setpoint.

“9” will provide the highest sensitivity or most change. The correct sensitivity for any product is based on the type of product, its density, the setpoint temperature, and the customer’s own requirements. A generic sensitivity chart is located on Page 1-5 of the Frymaster Fryer Controllers manual (P/N 819-5916).
Filtration Malfunction The majority of fi ltration malfunctions arise from operator error. One of the most common errors is placing the fi lter paper on the bottom of the fi lter pan rather than over the fi lter screen. Inspect the fi lter paper to ensure that it is correctly sized and placed. Incorrectly sized or installed fi lter paper will allow particles and sediment to pass through the fi...

Manual (Push-Button) Modular Basket Lift Simplified Schematic 2-Pole Mech Timer Upper Limit Microswitch 1 or 5 4 or 6 Lower Limit Microswitch When the timer button is pushed, the lower circuit is activated. The basket lift lowers, closing the normally open upper microswitch. The motor loses power when the basket lift rod moves down and opens the lower, normally closed microswitch.
If oil coats the sides or ends of the frypot, the most likely cause is spillage over the top of the frypot. There may also be oil pooled on the fl oor below the fryer. This is not necessarily a sign that the frypot is leaking.

• electronics failure. Binds and Jams Noisy, jerky, or erratic movement of the lifts is usually due to lack of lubrication of the rods and their bushings. Apply a light coat of Lubriplate™ or similar lightweight white grease to the rod and bushings to correct the problem.
• If the fryer oil temperature is below 180°F (82°C), the lights indicate that the unit is operating normally. • If the fryer oil temperature is above 180°F (82°C) and the heat light continues to cycle as if in the melt cycle, this may indicate a defective probe circuit or low incoming 12 VAC to the controller.
1.7 Troubleshooting Guides The following are only guides. They are provided to assist the technician or service professional in the isolation of failures in components and wiring on the fryer. 1.7.1 Troubleshooting the 24 VAC Circuit Troubleshooting the 24 VAC Circuit: Analog Controller Before troubleshooting, verify that the drain valve(s) is fully closed and move the power switch into the ON position.
• If 24 VAC is present all the way through to the high-limit, go to Troubleshooting the Gas Valve, Section 1.7.2. 1.7.2 Troubleshooting the Gas Valve Before troubleshooting, verify that the gas main street valve is open and the fryer gasline cutoff valve is open. Place the gas valve in the ON position.
1.7.4 Troubleshooting the Temperature Probe Follow these guidelines to troubleshoot the temperature probe: 1. While it is still in the frypot, inspect the probe body for damage. Inspect the leads for fraying, burning, breaks, or kinks. If the probe is bent, dented, or cracked, or if the leads are damaged, replace the probe.
