Clean Detachable Parts and Accessories
As with the frypot, a deposit of carbonized oil/shortening will accumulate on detachable parts and
accessories such as baskets and sediment trays.
Wipe all detachable parts and accessories with a clean cloth dampened with a detergent solution. Rinse
and thoroughly dry each part.
Clean Gas Valve Vent Tube
•
Carefully unscrew the vent tube from the gas valve.
NOTE:
The vent tube may be
straightened for ease in removal.
•
Pass a piece of ordinary binding wire (.052 inch diameter) through the tube to remove any
obstruction.
•
Remove the wire and blow through the tube to ensure it is clear.
•
Reinstall tube and bend it so that the opening is pointing downward.
4.3 Semi-Annual Checks and Service
Check Burner Manifold Pressure
The frypot must be filled with water or cooking oil/shortening during this procedure.
•
Ensure that the gas valve knob is in the
OFF
position.
•
Remove the pressure tap plug from burner manifold.
•
Insert the fitting for a manometer or pressure gauge into the pressure tap hole.
•
Place the gas valve in the
PILOT
position and light the pilot. When the pilot lights and
continues to burn, increase the setting on the thermostat knob until the burner lights.
•
If the burner manifold pressure does not meet the specifications in the table, unscrew the
slotted cap from the top of the gas valve regulator (adjacent to the gas valve vent tube) and
turn the adjusting screw to obtain the correct pressure. Turn the screw clockwise to increase
pressure, counter-clockwise to decrease pressure.
•
After adjusting the manifold pressure to the correct value, reinstall the regulator cap and turn
the
gas valve knob to the
OFF
position.
•
Remove the manometer or pressure gauge fitting from the pressure tap hole and reinstall the
pipe plug.
•
Place the gas valve in the
PILOT
position and check for gas leaks. If no leaks are found,
re-
light the pilot and return the unit to operation.
