1Cabinet inspection

Inspect the cabinet, inside and out, front and rear, for excessive oil buildup.

2Check regulated gas pressure.

Contact the local gas company or a service agency to check the gas pressure out of the fryer’s gas regulator.

For natural gas, the pressure must be 3.0 in. W.C.

(76 mm W.C.) For propane gas, the pressure must be 8.25 in. W.C. (210 mm W.C.)

If the pressure does not meet these standards, ask the service agency or gas company to adjust the pressure to meet the standard.

3Probe check

Verify that the temperature and high-limit probes are properly connected, tightened and functioning properly, and that mounting hardware and probe guards are present and properly installed.

4Clean and Replace gas valve vent tube.

Clean and replace the gas valve vent tube. Follow the cleaning procedure in the service manual.

5Clean combustion air blower.

Clean the combustion air blowers. Follow the cleaning procedure in the service manual.

6Check fryer recovery time.

Choose a vat on the fryer. Check the fryer’s most re- cent recovery time for that vat, using the procedure in FR3 M1. The most recent recovery time should be less than 2:25 (two minutes, twenty-five seconds).

If the fryer’s recovery time is less than 2:25 (two mi- nutes, twenty-five seconds).the procedure is complete for this vat. Go to step 9.

7Check combustion.

If the fryer’s recovery time is less than 2:25 (two mi- nutes, twenty-five seconds).skip this step.

Connect the multimeter in series with the white flame sensor wire on the igniter. Allow the burner to operate for at least one minute after the melt cycle is com- pleted. After 1 minute, the reading on the multimeter should between 2.5 and 3.5 microamps. Any other reading is not acceptable.

After 90 seconds of continuous operation, check the color of the burner. The burner should glow bright orange-red. Use the Burner Color Comparison Chart inside the door of the fryer to identify the correct color. A blue flame or dark spots on the burner face are not acceptable.
