CASTERS:
a.
Install casters near where the fryer is to
be used, as casters are not secure for
long transit. The fryer cannot be curb
mounted and must be equipped with
either the legs or casters provided.
b.
After unpacking, use a pallet or lift jack
to raise the unit about a foot before
installing the casters.
c.
Insert the threaded caster screw into leg
support coupling. Grasp the base of the
caster and tighten the caster by hand,
turning clockwise, until snug against
the leg support assembly.
d.
Tighten the caster against the leg
support assembly by using a 3/4” open
end wrench.
e.
For fryers with casters, there are no
built-in leveling devices. The floor
where the fryers are installed must be
level.
3.4
LEVELING
:
a.
Place a carpenter’s spirit level across
the top of the fryer and level the unit
both front-to-back and side-to-side. If
it is not level, the unit may not function
efficiently, the oil may not drain
properly for filtering and in a line-up it
may not match adjacent units.
b.
Legs (Only):
1.
If the floor is smooth and level,
level the unit by using the leg screw
threads. Adjust to the high corner
and measure with the spirit level.
The legs have about one inch of
adjustment thread.
2.
Adjust leg height with an adjustable
or 3/4” open-end wrench.
