the bezel down to disengage the upper tabs. Remove the top two screws. Swing the controller out<br />
from the top <strong>and</strong> allow it to rest on its hinge tabs.<br />
4. Disconnect the controller wiring harness <strong>and</strong> ground wire from the back of the controller <strong>and</strong><br />
remove the controller by lifting it from the hinge slots in the control panel frame.<br />
5. If the fryer has a built-in filtration system, remove the cotter pin securing the oil return h<strong>and</strong>le to<br />
