CHAPTER 1: SERVICE PROCEDURES
5.To adjust burner gas pressure, remove the cap from the gas valve regulator and adjust to correct pressure (arrow shown at right).
6.Place the fryer power switch and the gas valve in the "OFF" position. Remove the
1.5Calibrating the Thermatron Temperature Controller
1.Ensure the fryer ON/OFF switch is in the "OFF" position. Fill the frypot to the proper
2.Place the fryer ON/OFF switch in the "ON" position. Set the Thermatron dial to 325°F (162°C).
3.Allow the oil/shortening to stabilize at setpoint temperature. This is evident when the burners have cycled on and off several times.
4.Insert a thermometer or pyrometer into the frypot within ½ inch (1.25 cm) of the probe tip. Ensure the tip of the thermometer/pyrometer does not touch the bottom or sides of the frypot.
5.If the temperature on the thermometer is higher or lower than 325°F (162°C), the dial is out of calibration.
6.Calibrate the dial by first loosening two setscrews in the dial (arrows). After loosening both setscrews, slowly turn the dial to match the temperature reading of the thermometer. Tighten each setscrew, ensuring the dial does not move on the shaft during tightening.
7.Allow burners to cycle on and off several times, then recheck oil temperature as described in step #5. If the Thermatron dial temperature matches the thermometer temperature, the controller is calibrated. If not, repeat step #7.
8.After calibration is complete, place the fryer power switch in the "OFF" position and disconnect the fryer from the electrical supply.
Loosen two setscrews in dial (arrows) to recalibrate controller.
