SECTION 2. MAINTENANCE
2-1. INTRODUCTION	This section provides checkout and replacement procedures for
	various parts of the fryer. Before replacing any parts, refer to
	the Troubleshooting section to aid you in f nding the cause of
	the malfunction.
2-2. MAINTENANCE HINTS	1. A multimeter will help you 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 should read inf nity.
	Do not move the fryer with hot shortening in the frypot
	or drain filter pan. Severe burns can result from
	splashing hot shortening.
	4. Remove weights from frame to easily access rear of fryer.
2-3. PREVENTIVE	To ensure a long life of fryers and their components, regular
MAINTENANCE	maintenance should be performed. Refer to the chart below.
	Frequency	Action
	Daily	Clean deadweight assembly cap, weight,
		and deadweight orif ce (see section 2-15)
	See KFC’s	Filtering of shortening
	Standards Library
	Monthly	Check dilution box, clean as needed
		(see section 2-25)
	Monthly	Clean the Nylatrons (see section 2-14)
	Annually	Clean blower wheel (see section 2-26)
	Annually	Lubricate lid rollers in back of fryer
		(see section 2-32)
	Annually	Remove and clean safety relief valve
		(see section 2-16)
	See KFC’s	Cleaning the frypot
	Standards Library
	Every 90 Days	Reversing lid gasket (see section 2-10)
810		2-1

2-4. HIGH TEMPERATURE
LIMIT CONTROL	This high temperature control is a safety, manual reset control,
	which senses the temperature of the shortening. If the shorten-
	ing temperature exceeds 425°F (218°C), this switch opens and
	shuts off the heat to the frypot. When the temperature of the
	shortening drops to a safe operation limit (15-20 minutes),
	manually reset by pressing the red reset button. The red reset
	button is located under the control panel, in the front of the
	fryer. Once reset, the frypot starts heating.
	Before replacing a high temperature limit control, check to see
	that its circuit is closed.

Checkout

The shortening temperature must be below 380°F (193°C) to accurately perform this check.

1.Remove electrical power supplied to the 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.

3.Remove the two nuts securing high limit bracket to the unit, and pull the bracket from the unit.

4.Remove the two screws securing the high limit to 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. Reconnect the two electrical wires.)

(Continued)
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. The control cannot be reset.
2.	Drain shortening from the frypot and discard. A substance
	in the tube could contaminate the shortening.
3.	Remove control panel.
4.	Loosen small inside screw nut on capillary tube.
5.	Remove capillary bulb from bulb holder inside the frypot.
6.	Straighten the capillary tube.
7.	Remove larger outside nut that threads into pot wall, and
	remove defective control from control panel area.
8.	Insert new control and replace screws.
9.	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.
10.	Carefully bend the capillary tube as shown in photo and place
	into bulb brackets.

LIMIT CONTROL		into frypot	wall.
(Continued)
		Be sure capillary bulb of high limit is positioned so it does
		not interfere with the carrier or get damages when clean-
		ing the frypot.
	12.	With excess capillary line pulled out, tighten smaller nut.
	13.	Replace front panel.
	14.	Ref ll with shortening.
2-5. POWER/PUMP SWITCH	The Power/Pump switch is a three-way rocker switch with a
	center OFF position. With the switch in the POWER position,

2-8. PRESSURE REGULATION The Henny Penny Fryer uses pressure as one of the components of the cooking process. Once the lid is sealed to the frypot and the solenoid valve closes, a deadweight valve maintains the correct pressure in the frypot.

The lid has minimal and limited maintenance and repair procedures, which are addressed in the following sections.

The following is a routine maintenance schedule for the lid:

Every 90 days

•Clean and reverse the lid gasket.

Yearly Inspection

•Check lid gasket for splitting and tears - replace if neces sary.

•Check pressure pads for wear - rotate if necessary.

•Check cam slide guides - replace if worn or broken.

•Check lid rollers - replace if cracked or damaged.

2-9. TILTING THE LID	The lid assembly is easily tilted up for cleaning or servicing.
UPRIGHT

1.Raise the lid and remove racks and carrier.

2.Grasping the lid handle, lift the front of the lid up until it stops in an upright position.

Be sure the metal arm on the left side of the lid is in the vertical position holding the lid upright, or severe injuries could result. (See photo at left.)

2-10. REVERSING THE LID	The gray rubber gasket surrounding the inside of the lid is
GASKET	designed to be reversed.
	Because of heat expansion and the pressure used for the cook
	ing process, the gasket is constantly under extreme stress.
	Reversing the lid gasket will help to ensure that the fryer will
	not lose pressure through leakage.
	1.	Put the lid in the upright position, as previously described.
	2.	Using a thin blade screwdriver, pry out the gasket at the
		corners. Remove the gasket.
		Check the gasket for any tears or nicks. If the gasket is
		damaged, it needs to be replaced.
		Be sure the metal arm on the left side of the lid is in the
		vertical position holding the lid upright, or severe
		injuries could result. (See photo on page 2-7.)
	3.	Clean the gasket and gasket seat with hot water.
	4.	Rotate the gasket with the opposite side facing out.
		Install the four corners of the lid gasket. Smooth the gasket
		into place, working from the corners towards the middle of
		each	side.

2-11. LID COUNTERWEIGHT The Lid Counterweight in the back of the fryer balances the CABLES weight of the lid system to allow easier opening and closing of

the lid. The weight has two cables attached to it, and weighs about 150 lbs. (67.5 Kg).

1.Using a 3/8” socket, remove the nuts securing the rear shroud of the fryer and remove the shroud.

2.Using Phillip’s-head screwdriver, remove screws securing the top cap and remove cap.

3.Raise the lid.

4.Unscrew the broken cable from the weight assembly and bracket attached to the fryer, and remove broken cable.

5.Screw a 5/16” nut on each end of the new cable.

6.Using a wrench, screw the new cable into the weight assembly until tight.

7.Using a 1/2” wrench, tighten nut (already threaded on the cable) against the weight assembly, securing the cable into

weight assembly.

8. Pull the cable over the pulley and down behind the weight assembly .

9.Insert the cable into the hole in bracket and screw a 5/16” nut onto end of the cable. Tighten cable, by screwing the cable through this nut until the weight assembly

becomes level.

The safety cable should now have slack in it with the weight assembly level.

10.Tighten the nut against the top of the bracket, securing the cable.

11.Replace top cap and rear shroud; repair is now complete.

	against to seal the lid.
	1.	Raise the lid.
	2.	Remove the four screws securing the lid cover and remove
		cover.
	3.	Push the lid cam back, off the pressure pads.

4.Using an Allen wrench, remove the large bolt securing pad.

5.Using a Phillips head screw driver, remove the small screw securing the pad and remove the broken pad.

If the pressure pad is worn, but not broken, it can be reversed 180 degrees, and the other end of the pad used.

6.Install new pad in reverse order.

2-13. LID ADJUSTMENT	If steam leaks out from around the lid gasket, the pressure pads
	could be worn or broken. If the pressure pad is worn, but not
	broken, it can be reversed 180 degrees, and the other end of the
	pad used. See Section 2-12.
	If steam leaks, check for:

• Pressure pad wear

• Cracked or worn gasket

• Gasket installed improperly

• Fryer operating above 12 psi (827 mbar)

Fryer should be operating at 12 psi (827 mbar), or serious burns could result.

2-14. CLEAN THE NYLATRONS 1. Spray Henny Penny biodegradable, food safe, foaming degreaser (part no. 12226) on Nylatrons.

2.Raise lid up and down several times to spread degreaser.

3.Wipe Nylatrons to remove food soil, grease, and degreaser residue.

2-15. SOLENOID VALVE	This is an electromechanical device that causes pressure to be
	held in the frypot. The solenoid valve closes at the beginning
	of the cook cycle and opens automatically at the end of the
	cook cycle. If this valve should become dirty, or the Tef on
	seat nicked, pressure will not build up. The gas fryer uses a
	120 volt, 60 Hz coil (208/240 volt, 50 Hertz internationally).

To avoid electrical shock or property damage, move the power switch to OFF and disconnect main circuit breaker, or unplug cord at wall receptacle.

Coil Check Procedure

Remove the solenoid wires from the wire nuts which are found behind the control panel. Check across wires.

	RESULTS
208/240 Volt, 60 Hertz	150 Ohms
208/240 Volt, 50 Hertz	230 Ohms
120 Volt, 60 Hertz	50 Ohms

Replacement

1.Remove the right side panel.

2.Remove the Tru-Arc retaining clip on top of coil housing.

3.Remove the cover.

4.If only the coil is to be replaced, disconnect the two coil wires at the wire nuts in the coil housing. Remove the coil, insert new coil, and connect the wires at the wire nuts. Assemble in reverse order of disassembly.

The wires may be connected in any order.
