Bench top deep fryer repair
Posted: Tue May 26, 2020 8:13 pm
I don't deal a lot with appliance repairs and have someone after some repairs for a small Bakbar bench top deep fryer in a commercial kitchen
The main issue is that the thermostat has a little button (overload?) that keeps popping out at irregular intervals
The flex and plug top are also damaged
My plan is to swap out the thermostat to a new one and to replace plug and flex
I have selected a rubber plug top and flex that is suitably resistance to the oil he uses (vegetable oil) and plan on using 1.5mm flex and a 15A plug top, this is what the existing unit has
Any other hints/tips/input? Am I doing the right thing by just replacing the thermostat or should I be looking more at what's causing it first?
Thanks in advance
