SYMPTOM
CAUSE
REMEDY
Leaking tank.
1.
Foam-over by depleted
shortening permits oil to drip
from the tank surface, giving
appearance of leaking.
2.
Careless draining procedures.
3.
Carbon buildup causes rapid
attack on tank by promoting acid
formulation.
1.
Replace shortening.
2.
Gas control valve knob should
be in PILOT or OFF position
before draining oil. Burners
heating an empty tank will
damage tank joints.
3.
Clean tank surfaces.
Pilot burner flames adjusted properly,
but fluctuates to very low and blows
out easily.
1.
Gas pressure too low.
2.
Gas pressure too low at
submanifold.
1.
Check gas pressure on
submanifold fitting when fryer is
in operation.
2.
Check other equipment attached
to same gas line.
3.
Adjust gas pressure at
submanifold to not less than 4.0"
W.C. (natural and mixed gas) or
10.0" W.C. for propane gas.
