Replacing the Main Power Switch

This is a covered rocker switch, which in the ON position, sends power to all the controls and filter motor. However, in some installations, one pair of contacts may be used to control an exhaust hood fan.

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

1. Remove electrical power supplied to the fryer.

2. Remove control panel.

   

3. From the inside of control area, squeeze in on the tabs on the back of switch and push the switch out the front of the control area.

4. Label and remove wires from the switch.

5. Check across 2 sets of terminals of switch for continuity. With switch in ON position, circuit should be closed. With switch in OFF position, circuit should be open.

If the switch is found to be defective, replace it by connecting the wires to it (as labeled) and push new switch into place.
