Remove back shroud.
-
Disconnect gray plastic trim strip at top weight.
-
Disconnect steam box and remove.
-
Disconnect blower bracket and allow the blower to lay down by the weights. (Flue must be out of the way.)
-
Break plumbing and electrical connections going through left and right shrouds, then remove shrouds.
-
Replace old black rubber bumper with new.
-
Install two angle brackets to the outside of the u-channel using the following procedure on each side: Note: Black angle must remain in the same position throughout this process.
-
Remove screws a & b (see illustration 2).
-
Install new bracket using new bolt in position a only as shown.
-
Use blue loctite.
-
After securing bolt in hole a, then remove screw c.
-
Pivot bracket up into position and install new screws in positions. Use blue loctite.
-
Repeat on the other side.
-
-
Drill four new holes using ¼” drill bit (#MS01-426). See illustration 3 for locations. Note: White wheels must be shielded from all metal shavings!
-
Install two rails using ¼” hardware (short ¼-20 hex bolts with keps nut on bottom angle, long ¼-20 hex bolt with spacer and keps nut on top plate). While installing rails slide the plastic pads into position.
-
Re-install left and right shrouds, blowers, and flue only.
-
Before re-installing the remainder it may be necessary to adjust the rails with the shims provided.
-
To test, the lid must be in the up position. While standing in from of the fryer, grasp the center of the lid handle with one hand. Attempting to move the lid back and forth should cause the entire fryer to shake. There should be no looseness or rattling in the slide guides. If any of the above is the case, shim rail. Usually any looseness in the plastic pads – even if it appears to be all on one side, will require equal shimming on both sides and top and bottom.
-
Once all looseness is removed grease backside of rail with spindle lube.
-
Re-install remaining parts.
