MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS - CRADLE LIFT
30
NOTE: 
Failure to keep the cradle lift 
screw properly lubricated will 
result in premature wear 
of the brass lift nut Wear 
caused by lack of proper 
lubrication is NOT covered by 
warranty. 
Recommended frequency is “as 
required”, and, at a minimum, 
every six months. Lubricate 
cradle lift screw immediately if a 
grinding or rubbing noise is 
heard when basket is raising. 
 
NOTE: 
Smooth operation of the rollers 
is essential to the life of the 
frypot. If rollers do not turn 
freely during operation, they will 
soon wear grooves through the 
frypot wall. 
 
IMPORTANT: 
IF ROLLERS ARE FROZEN 
OR OTHERWISE FOUND TO 
NOT SPIN FREELY AFTER 
BEING THOROUGHLY 
CLEANED, REPLACE THEM 
IMMEDIATELY. 
Wear to the FRYPOT caused 
by frozen rollers is not 
covered by warranty.
