ULTIMATE ELECTRIC SERIES FRYERS

CHAPTER 1: SERVICE PROCEDURES

1.10 Built-in Filter System Service Procedures (cont.)

3.If the front cover is not accessible, the pump must be removed from the pump motor (remove input/output plumbing from the pump prior to removing pump). Remove three setscrews from the pump-shaft housing to disengage the pump from the motor. Remove the gears and thoroughly clean all internal components. Ensure the inside of the pump housing is free of any debris or hardened shortening before reassembling. Failure to completely clean the inside housing and ring gear will cause gear binding after reassembly.

Filter paper/pads that are the wrong size or installed incorrectly will also allow food particles and sediment to pass through and clog the suction tube in the bottom of the filter pan. Particles large enough to block the suction tube may indicate that the crumb tray is not being used.

1.11 Basket Lift Service Procedures

Ultimate Electric Series fryers may optionally be equipped with automatic basket lifts to ensure uniform cooking times. Electric fryers can be equipped with "modular" or "bell-crank" basket lifts.

A modular basket lift (illustrated) consists of a toothed rod to which the basket lift arm is attached, a reversible-drive gear motor and a pair of roller-activated microswitches. The gear motor engages the teeth in the rod, moving it up or down, depending upon the direction of rotation of the motor. Microswitches at the upper and lower limits of movement stop the motor when the basket is in the full up or full down position.

Timing circuitry in the controller initiates and stops basket lift operation depending upon the variables programmed by the operator. When the product button is pressed, or the manual control is activated, the timing circuitry activates a coil in the basket lift relay to supply power to the lower microswitch. The microswitches stop the motor at the lift’s upper and lower travel limits and reverse the direction of current flow thus reversing the motor direction.
