Operation 

 

High Limit Control

 

 

Thor Fryers are equipped with a secondary heat control that prevents the oil temperature from rising 
above 195°C/450°F. (Because of the accuracy tolerance of the sensor, the oil temperature may reach as 
high as 200°C/475°F.) 

 

In the event the fryer shuts down due to this condition, the oil must be cooled to below185°C/400°F 

before the pilot burner can be re-ignited. When the oil has cooled, use the “Lighting” procedure on 

page 11 to place the fryer back in operation. If the problem persists, contact our Thor Service 

Representative or the Thor Service Department. 

 

Main burner air supply: 
1.

 

For efficient burner operation, a proper balance of gas volume and primary air supply must be 

maintained which will result in complete combustion. Insufficient air supply results in a yellow 

streaming flame. Primary air supply is controlled by an air shutter on the front of the burner. 

2.

 

Loosen the screws on the front of the burner and adjust the air shutter to just eliminate the yellow 

tips of the burner flame. Lock the air shutter in place by tightening the screws. 

 

CAUTION 
The space between the castors at the bottom admits combustion air. DO NOT BLOCK THIS SPACE. 
 
All burners are lit from constantly burning pilots. Turning the valve to the desired flame height is all 

that is required to put the unit in service. 
 
Do not permit fans to blow directly at the unit. Wherever possible, avoid open windows next to the 

units' sides or back. Avoid wall type fans which create air cross-currents within a room. 
 
It is also necessary that sufficient air should be allowed to enter the room to compensate for the 

amount of air removed by any ventilating system. Otherwise, a subnormal atmospheric pressure will 
occur, affecting operation and causing undesirable working conditions. 
 
A properly designed and installed hood will act as the heart of the ventilating system for the room or 

area in which the unit is installed, and will leave the unit independent of changing draft conditions. 
 
All valves must be checked and lubricated periodically. This must be done by an authorized service 

representative in your area. 

 

Note: 
Please wait at least 15 seconds to restart the main burners to maintain the best function of the 

thermostat valve after turning off the main burners. 
 

IMPORTANT 

Should any abnormal operation like; 
- ignition problems, 
- abnormal burner flame, 
- burner control problems, 

  - partial or full loss of burner flame in normal operation, be noticed, the appliance requires IMMEDIATE

 

service by a qualified service person and should not be used until such service is carried out.
