1.14 Cleaning a Seized Pump
If the pump motor overloads, a circuit breaker will trip and the motor will not start until the breaker
is reset. If the pump motor does not start, press the white reset button located under the component
box, inside the cabinet.
If the pump starts after resetting the breaker, then something is causing the motor to overload. A
major cause of overload is filtering several frypots sequentially, creating thermal overload on the
motor. Allow the pump motor to cool at least 30 minutes before resuming operation, and allow time
for the motor to cool between frypots.
