PROBLEM CAUSE REMEDY
Main burners do not
ignite. 1. Gas control valve knob set to OFF or
PILOT.
2. Low gas supply pressure [less than 6”
W.C. for natural gas; (11” W.C. for pro-
pane) when all other gas-powered kitchen
equipment is operating].
3. Pilot burner problem.
4. Thermostat control set below the tem-
perature of the liquid shortening in the
kettle.
5. Gas control valve has failed.
1. Perform the normal Lighting
Procedure. Turn the gas
control valveknob to ON to
light the main burners.
If the burners do not light, the
gas control valve has failed and
must be replaced.
2. Measure the gas supply pres-
sure.
Contact your local gas supplier
to obtain adequate gas supply
pressure.
3. Refer to the preceding Pilot
Burner problems and use the
correct remedy.
4. Increase the thermostat setting
until the burners light. If this
setting is greater than the de-
sired temperature, reset the
thermostat to the desired set-
ting and allow the shortening to
cool to the desired tempera-
ture.
5. Replace the gas control valve.
! CAUTION: DO NOT return
the fryer to normal operation
with its high-limit thermostat
bypassed/disconnected.
Pilot flame goes out
repeatedly.

For model 14GS, MX-14EG,
and MX14-EGU fryers ONLY:
Test the high-limit thermo-
stat by disconnecting the ther-
mocouple at the gas control
valve. Then, disconnect the red
wires to the high-limit thermo-
stat from the gas control valve.
Reconnect the thermocouple;
next, perform the Lighting Pro-
cedure, to check whether the
pilot flame lights. If the pilot
flame stays lit, the high-limit
thermostat has failed and must
be replaced.
