Model 290
The Lid Counterweight in the back of the fryer balances the weight
of the lid system to allow easier opening and closing of the lid. The
weight has two cables attached to it, and weighs about 100 lbs.
(45.4 kg).
1. Using a 3/8” socket, remove the nuts securing the rear shroud
of the fryer and remove the shroud.
2. Using Phillip’s-head screwdriver, remove the screws securing
the top cap and remove cap.
3. Raise the lid.
4. Unscrew the broken cable from the weight assembly and the
bracket attached to the fryer, and remove broken cable.
5. Screw a 5/16” nut on each end of the new cable.
6. Using a wrench, screw the new cable into the weight assembly
until tight.
7. Using a 1/2” wrench, tighten the nut (already threaded on the
cable) against the weight assembly, securing the cable into the
weight assembly.
8. Pull the cable over the pulley and down behind the weight
assembly.
9. Insert the cable into the hole in the bracket and screw a 5/16”
nut onto the end of the cable. Tighten the cable, by screwing
the cable through this nut until the weight assembly becomes
level.
The safety cable should now have slack in it with the weight
assembly level.
10. Tighten the nut against the top of the bracket, securing the
cable.
11. Replace the top cap and rear shroud and repair is now com-
plete.
