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.

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

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.)
