This section provides procedures for the checkout and replace­ment of the various parts used within the fryer. Before replac­ing any parts, refer to the Troubleshooting section. It will aid you in determining the cause of the malfunction.
This section is arranged in groupings of the components that work together within the fryer. The general groups are listed
below.
Removing the Control Panel Probe Electrical Components
1. You may want to use a multimeter to 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 will read infinity.
Control Board Pressure System
Moving the cookpot with hot shortening in the cookpot or filter pan is not recommended. Hot shortening can splash out. Severe burns could result.
4. The weights can be removed from the frame to easily access the rear of cooker.
This high temperature control is a manual reset control which
senses the temperature of the shortening. If the shortening temperature exceeds 420°F (215”C), this control switch will open and shut off the heat to the eookpot. When the temperature of the shortening drops to a safe operation limit, the control must be manually reset. The reset button is located above the filter knob in the front of the cooker. This will allow heat to be supplied to the cookpot.
Page 2
Before replacing a high temperature limit control, check to see that its circuit is closed.
The shortening temperature must be below 380°F (193°C) to accurately perform this check.
1. Remove electrical power supplied to the fryer.
Remove electrical power supplied to the fryer by unplugging the unit, or by turning off the wall circuit breaker or electrical shock could result.
2. Remove the control panel.
3. Remove the two electrical wires from the high temperature limit control.
4. 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.)
Remove electrical power supplied to the fryer by unplugging the unit, or by turning off the wall circuit breaker or electrical shock could result.

5-8 PRESSURE REGULATION The Henny Penny Fryer uses pressure as one of the components of
the cooking process. Once the lid is sealed to the cookpot, and the solenoid valve closes, a deadweight valve maintains the correct pressure in the cookpot.
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 lid gasket
Yearly Inspection
Remove and clean safety relief valve
Check Lid Gasket for splitting and tears - replace if necessary
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.

The Lid Assembly is easily tilted up for cleaning or servicing.
1. Lower the lid assembly.,
2. Turn the Lid Stop Bracket towards the left of the unit.
Do not tilt the lid back when the lid is in the full raised position. The handle will fall across the flue opening
and will cause severe burns when touched.
3. Carefully allow the lid support to come to rest against the Lid Stop Bracket.
4. 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 in the upright position, or severe injuries could result.
Page 8
The gray rubber gasket surrounding the inside of the lid is designed to be reversed. HENNY PENNY RECOMMENDS THAT THIS BE DONE EVERY 90 DAYS.
Because of heat expansion and the pressure used for the cook­ing process, the gasket is constantly under extreme stress. Reversing the lid gasket every 90 days will help to assure 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 careful that the lid doesn’t fall down while it is in
the upright position, or serious injury could result.
3. Clean the gasket and gasket seat with hot water.
4. Rotate the gasket with the opposite side facing out.
Begin the installation by installing the four corners of the lid gasket, and smoothing the gasket into place from the corners.

The Lid Counterweight in the back of the fryer balances the 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). One cable is centered on the weight and is the cable being used. The other cable is a safety cable and is off center. In case the main cable becomes loose or broken, the safety cable catches the weight and puts the weight into a bind, not allowing the lid to be opened or closed.
1. Using a 3/8” socket, remove the back shroud of the fryer.
2. With one person holding the weight level, another person locks the lid down.
3. Unthread the broken cable from the weight and the bracket attached to the fryer, and remove broken cable.
4. Thread a 5116” nut on each end of the new cable.
5. Screw the new cable into the weight, using a wrench, until
it is tight.
6. Using a l/2” wrench, tighten the nut (already threaded
on the cable) against the weight securing the cable into the weight.
7. Pull cable over pulley and down behind the weight.
8. Thread the other end of the cable through a 5116” nut on the underside of the bracket.
9. Tighten the cable up by screwing the cable through the nut, until the weight becomes level.

NOTE
The cable should now have some slack in it, with the weights level.
10. T ighten the nut against the bracket, securing the cable.
11. Replace back shroud. Repair is now complete.
5-12. PRESSURE P AD The pressure pads are plastic strips that the lid cam presses 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 of the pressure pads.
4. Using an Allen wrench, remove large bolt securing the pad.
5. Using a Phillips head screw driver, remove the small screw securing the pad and remove the broken pad.
NOTE

5-13. 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 5-12.
Other problems could cause the steam to leak, such as a cracked or worn gasket, or gasket not installed properly . Be certain leaking is not caused by too much pressure before making any lid adjustments. Fryer should be operating at 12 psi. Refer to Operating Control Valve section. All these areas should be checked, or serious burns could result.

With the carrier and racks installed on the lid, the lid should stay down, in contact with the pot rim, when the lid is lowered. The user will then be able to lock the lid in place. If the lid has a tendency to rise up before getting the lid locked down, the magnet plate probably needs adjusting. Follow these steps:
1. Remove the six nuts securing the back shroud and remove
back shroud.
2. Loosen the bottom nut under the plate and unscrew both
nuts a couple turns, then lower the lid again to see if the lid stays down. If not, repeat procedure.
3. Tighten lower nut up against the other nut and install back
shroud - adjustment is now complete.
This is an electromechanical device that causes pressure to be held in the cookpot. 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 Teflon seat nicked, pressure will not build up. The electric fryer uses a 208/240 volt, 60 hertz coil (50 hertz internationally). The gas uses a 120 volt, 60 hertz coil (208/240 volt, 50 hertz
internationally).
Before starting repair procedures! move the Power/Pump Switch to the “OFF” position. Discon­nect main circuit breaker at the circuit breaker box and/or unplug service cord from the wall receptacle or electrical shock could result.
Remove the solenoid wires from the wire nuts which are found behind the control panel. Check across wires.

The ignitors are electrically energized and the tip of the ignitor glows red creating combustion in the burner chamber. It then
senses the combustion and sends the message to the modules. If no combustion occurs, the modules shut the gas off at the gas valve.
ee
When the Power/Pump switch is in the power position, a red
glow should be seen in each porthole in the front of the fryer. If no red glow is seen, proceed with the following:
1. Remove electrical power supplied to the unit.
Remove electrical power supplied to the unit by unplug­ging the unit, or by turning off the wall circuit breaker, or electrical shock could result.
‘2. Remove the side panel.
3. Locate and remove the wire nuts on the leads to the ignitors.
4. The ignitor should ohm out at 1.0-6.0 ohms.
The following checks are performed with the wall circuit breaker closed and the Power/Pump switch in the Power position. Extreme caution should be taken. Make connections before applying power, take reading, and remove power before removing meter leads, or electrical shock could result.
5. Also, a voltage check can be taken. The ignitor should receive 24 volts from the ignitor module. If 24 volts is found from the leads from the modules, then the ignitor
is probably faulty.
If an ignitor is found to be faulty it must be replaced as follows:
