CHAPTER 1: SERVICE PROCEDURES

1.7.8 Replacing the Frypot
(cont.)
15. Remove the drain manifold. Only the drain
tubes directly blocking the frypot being
replaced require removal.
- Remove the nuts holding the drain valve
strap onto the drain tube stud.
- Disconnect the Teflon tube at the back of
the center dump tube piece and any other
components attached to the tubes,
including drain flush flexlines.
- Loosen the nut on each clamp holding the
rubber boots and drain sections together.
- Carefully remove the tubes by pulling
down at an angle, straight out of the drain
valves, and working them gently out of the
rubber boots. Set aside for reassembly.
16. Remove the nipple attaching the oil return line
to the bottom of the frypot at the rear of the
fryer using a wrench. This may require
removal of other pieces of the oil return
manifold, as needed.
17. Remove the burner shield by loosening the
screw on each end.
18. Remove the burner rail by loosening the screw
on each end. The burner rail secures the
burners in the burner manifold. Be careful to
ensure that the burners do not fall out of the
gas manifold, as they might be damaged and
dented.
14. Remove the burners to gain access to the
temperature probe and to ease frypot removal.
Lean each burner slightly away from the
frypot to clear the burner seal (metal box
attached to frypot). Then, pull the burner up
and off of the orifice. The burners should be
easy to remove and do not require force.
