What to do if the thermostat on my Frymaster Fryer does not control at the set point?
If the thermostat on your Frymaster Fryer isn't controlling the temperature accurately, it may be out of calibration. Check the calibration of the thermostat in accordance with procedures in Section 4.2 of this manual.
How to fix a Frymaster GF14 when the burner does not light at all?
If the burner on your Frymaster Fryer won't light, start by checking if the pilot light is lit. If not, light it. Also, inspect the gas valve and thermostat terminals for any looseness, dirt, or corrosion, and clean and tighten them as needed. If the issue persists, it could be due to broken or shorted wires on the thermostat, gas valve, or hi-limit. Examine these wires for damage; if damaged, replacement of the component may be necessary. Also, the thermostat may be out of calibration.
Why does the pilot light on my Frymaster Fryer repeatedly go out?
If the pilot light on your Frymaster Fryer keeps going out, the pilot orifice might be clogged; try clearing it with a small wire. Also, check for excessive drafts in the kitchen that could be blowing the flame away from the pilot generator, and eliminate any drafts. Ensure the pilot generator is fully inserted into the pilot burner so the flame surrounds the tip. Finally, inspect the connection where the pilot generator connects to the gas valve for corrosion, and clean it if necessary.
What to do if my Frymaster GF14 Fryer burner experiences delayed ignition?
Delayed ignition in your Frymaster Fryer's burner could be due to several reasons. First, ensure that there is sufficient make-up air in the kitchen by adjusting the ventilation system. Also, check if the pilot flame is correctly directed towards the first orifice of the burner; if not, reposition the pilot hood. Lastly, inspect the burner orifices for any blockages and clear them using a thin wire.
Why doesn't the burner on my Frymaster Fryer light all the way around?
If the burner on your Frymaster Fryer isn't lighting fully, it might be due to clogged burner orifices. Turn the gas valve knob to the OFF position, then use a thin wire to clear any obstructions from the burner orifices. Another possible cause is a blocked flue, so clear any blockages from the flue. Also, ensure that if the fryer flue is connected directly to the vent hood with a chimney-like duct, remove the chimney-like duct and allow for at least 18” (45.7cm) between the flue outlet and vent hood filters.
What causes flame rolling out from under my Frymaster GF14 Fryer?
If you notice flames rolling out from under your Frymaster Fryer, it's likely due to an obstructed flue. Remove any obstructions from the flue. Also, ensure that there is sufficient make-up air in the kitchen by adjusting the ventilation system.
Why does the pilot on my Frymaster GF14 Fryer go out when I release the gas valve knob?
If the pilot light on your Frymaster Fryer stays lit only when the gas valve knob is pushed in, but goes out when released, the hi-limit wires might be loose, dirty, or corroded. Try cleaning and tightening the hi-limit wires on the gas valve.
