1.7.7 Replacing the Frypot (cont.) 
15. Remove the drain manifold. Only the drain 
tubes directly blocking the frypot being 
replaced require removal. 
-  Remove the nuts holding the drain valve 
strap onto the drain tube stud. 
-  Disconnect the Teflon tube at the back of 
the center dump tube piece and any other 
components attached to the tubes, 
including drain flush flexlines. 
-  Loosen the nut on each clamp holding the 
rubber boots and drain sections together. 
-  Carefully remove the tubes by pulling 
down at an angle, straight out of the drain 
valves, and working them gently out of the 
rubber boots. Set aside for reassembly. 
16. Remove the nipple attaching the oil return line 
to the bottom of the frypot at the rear of the 
fryer using a wrench. This may require 
removal of other pieces of the oil return 
manifold, as needed. 
17. Remove the burner shield by loosening the 
screw on each end. 
18. Remove the burners to gain access to the 
temperature probe and to ease removal. Remove 
one burner at a time. Loosen the two screws 
attaching the burner to the burner rail. Slide the 
burner up until the heads of the two screws reach 
the round key holes and lean it slightly toward 
from the frypot to clear the burner rail and seal 
(metal box attached to frypot). Then, pull the 
burner up and off of the orifice. The burners 
should be easy to remove and do not require 
force. 
19. Remove the burner rail when all burners have 
been uninstalled. Loosen the screws on each 
end of the rail and set it aside.
