Description
This high temperature control is a manual reset control which
senses the temperature of the shortening. If the shortening

temperature of the shortening drops to the safe operating limit,
the control must manually be reset.
To locate the high limit reset button, open the door to the drain
pan. Look up under the controls and to the right of the fi lter
handle for a red reset button. (On the left for single phase units.)
