OPERATION—SAFETY TEST SYSTEM™

DANGER: BURN HAZARD

Contact with hot oil will cause severe burns. Allow the fryer to cool before cleaning. Always wear protective clothing and heat resistant gloves when performing this test.

The Safety Test System™ allows a positive test of the function of the temperature limiting (hi-limit) thermostat.

The hi-limit thermostat is factory set for 440ºF (227ºC). It will trip if the oil temperature exceeds this setting, and interrupt power to the heating element.

CAUTION

Fire Hazard

Do not hold the TEST switch for more than 2-1/2 minutes. Should the oil temperature not reach the hi-limit setting within 2-1/2 minutes, turn the power switch OFF and contact an Authorized Wells Service Agent for repairs.

1.Fill the frypot to the MIN OIL line. Fresh oil is recommended to minimize smoking.

2.Clip the TEST THERMOMETER to a FRYER BASKET. Lower the fryer basket into the oil. Be sure the dial

of the test thermometer can be clearly viewed.

SWITCH. The temperature of the

 

 

 

oil will rise, and the test thermometer will read “TEST ZONE”.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT hold the TEST switch for more than 2-1/2 minutes.

When the oil temperature reaches the setting of the hi-limit thermostat, the hi-limit will trip, the red TROUBLE light will glow, and the heating element will be de-energized.

If the hi-limit thermostat trips while the test thermometer is in the TEST ZONE, the test is complete. The function of the hi-limit thermostat is normal. Reset the hi-limit thermostat and resume normal operation.

 

If the test thermometer rises above the TEST

FAIL!

ZONE, the hi-limit is not operating properly.

Release the TEST switch, turn the power

switch OFF and contact an Authorized Wells

 

Service Agent for repairs.

5.Reset the hi-limit thermostat:

a.Turn the power switch OFF

b.Allow the oil to cool

c.Press the red button on the back of the element head until it “clicks” and stays in.

6.Remove, clean and store the test thermometer.

Set the temperature control knob to the normal operating temperature. Turn the power switch ON and resume normal operation.
