1.7.2 Replacing the Temperature Probe; Controller-equipped Fryers (cont.)
10. Locate the temperature probe inside the
frypot.
11. The temperature probe can be removed
through the bottom of the frypot as follows:
Ensure the two-pin connector has been
removed from the probe wiring harness
(step 4, above). Carefully bend the two tabs
(one forward and toward the back) so the
probe will clear the tabs. Remove the
harness insulation. The probe can be pulled
through the frypot from the bottom
(complete step 7, above, prior to removing
probe).
12. Carefully remove the probe from the frypot.
As the probe is removed, tilt the probe at an
angle to facilitate removal (curved probes
only).
13. Follow the steps on the next page to install
the new temperature probe.
IMPORTANT: When installing new probe, use
Loctite PST567 or equivalent pipe thread sealant
on threads and ensure probe is positioned properly
with the mounting hardware installed prior to
tightening the compression nut. Once tightened,
the probe cannot be repositioned.
Locate the temperature probe.
After removing the probe mounting hardware, the
temperature probe can be removed through the
bottom of the frypot. Retain the mounting hardware
for reassembly.
