CHAPTER 1: SERVICE PROCEDURES
1-19
1.7.5 Replacing Rocker Switches (cont.)
3. Depress the retaining clips (see illustration below) and push the switch out of the slot. If there is
a switch-guard present, retain it for installation of the replacement switch.
Depress clips on each
side to remove switch
from control panel.
4. Remove wires one at a time from the switch being removed and connect to the replacement
switch until all wires are transferred.
5. Reverse the above steps for reassembly.
1.7.6 Replacing the Gas Valve
DANGER
Drain the frypot or remove the handle from the drain valve before proceeding further.
1. Disconnect fryer from electrical and gas supplies.
2. Disconnect the wires from the gas valve terminal block, marking each wire to facilitate
reconnections. For 120VAC gas valves, disconnect the black wire from the high-limit, then
remove the bobtail connecting the white wire.
3. Remove the high-limit thermostat wire from the gas valve pilot coil (all but 120 VAC valves).
4. Remove the pilot gas line fitting from the gas valve.
5. Remove the pipe union collars to the left and right of the gas valve and remove the valve.
6. Remove the pipefitting from the old gas valve and install on the replacement valve, using Loctite
PST567 or equivalent pipe thread sealant on threads. Do not apply sealant to the first two pipe
threads. Doing so will clog and damage the gas valve.
7. Reverse steps 1-5 to install the replacement gas valve.
