To avoid electrical shock or property damage, move the power switch to OFF and disconnect power.

Installation of the kit should be preformed only by a qualified service technician.

  1. Remove the FAST controls from the control area.

  2. Label and disconnect the wires to the power switch.

  3. Remove the screws securing the front panel assembly, which has the power switch attached to it, and remove from unit.

  4. Remove the retaining clip from the top of the solenoid coil housing and remove the cover.

  5. Pull the coil housing from solenoid and remove the coil from the housing. Replace coil with the low voltage coil supplied in the kit. (Be sure to replace the spacers from the old coil onto the new coil).

  6. When retrofitting an OFE-292, ignore steps and references to the pressure solenoid and wires.

  7. Ensure oil is drained from oil.

  8. Use a 11/16 in. crowsfoot or socket to remove the FAST probe from the vat.

  9. Install the 3/8 in. to 1/8 in. reducer in the probe's place using pipe thread sealant.

  10. Install the compression fitting in the reducer, using pipe thread sealant.

  11. Slide the ferrule and nut, from the compression fitting, over the new probe, and insert the probe into the compression fitting

  12. Locate temperature probe through vat wall.

  13. Place gauge against vat wall.

  14. Push temperature probe through until it makes contact with guage.

  15. Tighten temperature probe in place.

  16. Locate the wire harness with the 6-pin red connector.

    1. Connect the yellow wires to high limit wires using wire nuts.

  17. Connect the white wires to the drain switch wires using wire nuts.

  18. Locate the wire harness with the 12 pin red connector.

    1. For 592s only, Connect the pressure solenoid wires to the red wires in positions 1& 2 of the 12 pin connector.

    2. Ensure these are not connected to the pump by accident. When retrofitting a 292, install wire nuts on these red wires to insulate them.

    3. Connect the yellow wires in position 6 & 7 of the 12-pin connector to the coil of the Primary Contactor.

    4. Connect the blue wires in positions 11 & 12 of the 12 pin connector to the coil of Secondary Contactor.

  19. Locate the wire harness with the 3-pin white connector and plug the two wires onto the side terminals of the 15

  20. amp fuse holders. Remove and discard the wires from the top terminal of the fuses and replace with wires L1- 1 & L2-1, from the kit. This supplies power to the control and pump.

  21. The wires in the wire harnesses are marked to guide you in positioning the wires correctly 400V, Y configuration fryers (wiring diagram 69662) cut the terminal off of wire L2F and replace it with a ring terminal, provided in the kit. Attach L2F to the neutral side of the elements (buss bar).

  22. Locate the harness with the 2-pin white connector with wires marked M1 & M2. Attach these wires to the filter motor wires, at the conduit on the left side of the control area, using wire nuts.

  23. Using self-tapping screws, provided in the kit, mount the transformer.

  24. Locate the front shroud assembly and attach the 5-pin connector to the power switch, wiring the switch provided in the kit.

  25. Wire tie the wires to keep them from interfering with the components, except for the probe wire.

  26. Slide the top of the outer front shroud underneath the lip on the countertop, and press into place. Secure with screws previously removed.

  27. Plug in all connectors, including the probe and new transformer harness into the back of the control.

  28. Slide the top of the control panel underneath the lip on the countertop and then press into place.

  29. Using the screws, provided in the kit, secure the controls to the unit.

  30. Using 5/8 inch socket, remove the deadweight orifice from the deadweight and replace it with the 9 lb. deadweight orifice from the kit

  31. Remove and discard the deadweight from the deadweight assembly and replace with the deadweight from the kit.

  32. Drill-out the rivets securing the Boil-Over chart on the back shroud and replace with Boil-Over chart in the kit.

  33. Remove the filtering label, below the control panel, and replace with the Power/Off/Pump label from the kit.
