SECTION 2. MAINTENANCE
2-1. INTRODUCTION This section provides procedures for the checkout and replacement
of the various parts used within the fryer. Before replacing any
parts, refer to the Troubleshooting Section. It will aid you in
determining the cause of the malfunction.
2-2. MAINTENANCE HINTS 1. You may need to use a multimeter to check the electric
components.
2. When the manual refers to the circuit being closed, the
multimeter should read zero unless otherwise noted.
3. When the manual refers to the circuit being open, the
multimeter will read infinity.
2-3 HIGH TEMPERATURE
LIMIT CONTROL The high temperature limit control is a safety, manual reset control
(Gas Units) that senses the temperature of the shortening. If the shortening
temperature exceeds 425F (218C), this switch will open
and shut off heat to the frypot. When the temperature of the
shortening drops to a safe operation limit, the control must be
manually reset by pressing the red reset button. The red reset
button is located under the control panel, in the front of the fryer.
This will allow heat to be supplied to the frypot once again.
Checkout Before replacing a high temperature limit control, check to see
that its circuit is closed.
The shortening temperature must be below 380F
(193C) to accurately perform this check.
Checkout:
1. Remove electrical power supplied to fryer.
To avoid electrical shock or property damage, move the
POWER switch to OFF and disconnect main circuit
breaker, or unplug cord at wall receptacle.
2. Remove the control panel.
203 2-1

2-3 HIGH TEMPERATURE
LIMIT CONTROL
(Continued)
3. Remove the two nuts securing the high limit bracket to the unit
and pull the bracket from the unit.
4. Remove the two screws securing the high limit to the bracket,
and remove the high limit from the bracket.
5. Remove the two electrical wires from the high temperature
limit control.
6. Manually reset the control, then check for continuity between
the two terminals after resetting the control. If the circuit is
open, replace the control, then continue with this procedure.
(If the circuit is closed, the high limit is not defective. Re-
connect the two electrical wires.)
Replacement:
To avoid electrical shock or property damage, move the
POWER switch to OFF and disconnect main circuit
breaker, or unplug cord at wall receptacle.
1. If the tube is broken or cracked, the control will open, shutting
off electrical power to the heat circuit. The control cannot be
reset, and it will continuously click when pushed.
2. Drain the shortening from the frypot and discard. A substance
in the tube could contaminate the shortening.
3. Remove the control panel.
4. Loosen small inside screw nut on capillary tube.

LIMIT CONTROL
(Continued) 5. Remove the bracket from the heat tube covering the high limit
bulb.
6. Straighten the capillary tube behind the pot wall.
7. Pull the high limit bulb through the retainers on the heat tube.
8. Remove the larger outside nut that threads into the pot wall.
9. Remove the defective high limit from the control panel area.
10. Insert new high limit into bracket and replace wires.
11. Uncoil capillary line, starting at capillary tube, and insert
through frypot wall.
To avoid electrical shock or other injury, run the capillary
line under and away from all electrical power wires and
terminals. The tube must never be in such a position where
it could accidentally touch the electrical power terminals.
12. Insert capillary line through brackets on heat tube, and then
pull back through pot wall until capillary bulb is secure in
brackets.
13. Pull excess capillary line from pot and tighten nut into
frypot wall.
14. With excess capillary line pulled out, tighten smaller nut.
15. Replace bracket on heat tube covering the high limit bulb.
16. Replace front panel.
17. Refill frypot with shortening.

2-4. COMPLETE CONTROL
PANEL REPLACEMENT Should the control board become inoperative, follow these
instructions for replacing the board.
1. Remove electrical power supplied to the unit.
To avoid electrical shock or property damage, move the
POWER switch to OFF and disconnect main circuit
breaker, or unplug cord at wall receptacle.
2. Remove the four screws securing the control panel and lift
out.
3. Unplug the wire connectors going to the control board.
4. Install new control panel in reverse order.
When plugging connectors onto new control panel, be sure
the connectors are inserted onto all of the pins, and that the
connectors are not forced onto the pins backwards. If not
connected properly, damage to the board could result.
2-5. POWER SWITCH 1. Remove electrical power supplied to fryer.
To avoid electrical shock or property damage, move the
POWER switch to OFF and disconnect main circuit
breaker, or unplug cord at wall receptacle.
2. Remove control panel.
3. Label and remove the wires from the switch. With test
instrument, check across the terminals of the switch with
the switch in the ON position, then in the OFF position.
With the switch in the ON position, the circuit should be
closed. With the switch in the OFF position, the circuit
should be open. If the switch checks defective, replace by
continuing with this procedure.

203 2-9

Model OFE/OFG-321,322,323,324
2-9. IGNITOR MODULE During normal operation, the ignition modules send 24 volts to the
ignitors and gas control valve. If a module does not sense a pilot
flame, the module starts the ignition process again. But, if a pilot
light goes out for longer that 10 seconds, or it goes out 3 times within
10 seconds, the module keeps the 24 volts from reaching the gas
control valve. The burners shut down.
1. Remove electrical power supplied to the unit.
To avoid electrical shock or property damage, move the
POWER switch to OFF and disconnect main circuit
breaker, or unplug cord at wall receptacle.
2. Remove the control panel as discussed in Complete Control Panel
Replacement Section.
3. Label and remove the wires at module.
4. Using a 3/8 inch nut driver, remove the keps nuts securing the
module to the shroud.
5. Install new module in reverse order.
2-10. TRANSFORMER The transformer reduces voltage down to accommodate those
components with low voltage.
1. Remove electrical power supplied to the unit.
To avoid electrical shock or property damage, move the
POWER switch to OFF and disconnect main circuit
breaker, or unplug cord at wall receptacle.
2. Remove the control panel as discussed in Complete Control Panel
Replacement Section.
3. Squeeze on the wire connector at the I/O board assembly to
disconnect the wires from the transformer.
4. Using a Phillips head screwdriver, remove the two screws
securing the transformer to the shroud.
5. Install the new transformer in reverse order.
2-10 203

Model OFE/OFG-321,322,323,324
2-11. I/O POWER SUPPLY
BOARD ASSEMBLY The input/output power supply board assembly distributes
voltage to the various components in the fryer. The board also
receives information from components in the fryer.
1. Remove electrical power supplied to the unit.

and the I/O board will cut power to the gas control valve, which
will shut the pilot flame off.
1. Remove electrical power supplied to the unit.
To avoid electrical shock or property damage, move the
POWER switch to OFF and disconnect main circuit
breaker, or unplug cord at wall receptacle.
