c.
Orifices: The fryer can be ordered to
operate on either natural or propane
gas. The correct safety control valve,
appropriate gas orifices, and pilot
burner are installed at the factory.
While the valve can be adjusted in the
field, only qualified service personnel
should make any adjustments with the
proper test equipment.
d.
Rigid Connections: The fryer can be
connected singularly or as part of a
cooking line. Check any installer-
supplied intake pipe(s) visually and
clean threading chips, or any other
foreign matter before installing into a
service line. If the intake pipes are not
clear of all foreign matter, the orifices
will clog when gas pressure is applied.
e.
Flexible Couplings & Connectors:
1.
If the fryer is installed with
couplings or quick disconnect
fittings, the installer must use a
heavy-duty, AGA design-certified
commercial connector of at least
¾” NPT (with suitable strain relief)
in compliance with ANSI Z-21.69-
1979. Domestic connectors are not
suitable.
2.
If the unit is installed with casters,
the installation should be made
with a connector that complies
with the Standard for Connectors
for Moveable Gas Appliances,
ANSI Z21.69 or Connectors for
Moveable Gas Appliances,
CAN/CGA-6.16, and a quick-
disconnect device that complies
with the Standard for Quick
Disconnect Devices for Use with
Gas Fuel, ANSI Z21.41, or Quick
Disconnect for Use with Gas Fuel,
CANI-6.9, adequate means must
be provided to limit the movement
of the appliance without depending
on the connector and the quick
disconnect device or its associated
piping to limit the appliance
movement. A restraining bracket
is provided on the appliance
structural back to prevent the unit
from moving from its installed
position.
3.6 ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS:
The wiring diagram is attached to the
inside of the fryer door. The diagram can
also be found on page 16, Chapter 6,
Troubleshooting. The fryer is equipped
with a millivolt control system which does
not need an outside power source.
3.7 INITIAL START-UP:
a.
CLEANING: New units are wiped
clean with solvents at the factory to
remove any visible signs of dirt, oil,
grease, etc. remaining from the
manufacturing process, then coated
lightly with oil. Wash thoroughly with
hot, soapy water to remove any film
CAUTION
ALL CONNECTIONS MUST BE
SEALED WITH A JOINT COMPOUND
SUITABLE FOR LP GAS, AND ALL
CONNECTIONS MUST BE TESTED
WITH A SOAPY SOLUTION BEFORE
LIGHTING ANY PILOTS.
WARNING
PUTTING AN OPEN FLAME BESIDE A
NEW CONNECTION IS NOT ONLY
DANGEROUS, BUT WILL OFTEN MISS
SMALL LEAKS THAT A SOAPY
SOLUTION WILL FIND.
CAUTION
THE FRYER AND ITS INDIVIDUAL
SHUT-OFF VALVE MUST BE
DISCONNECTED FROM THE GAS
SUPPLY PIPING SYSTEM DURING
ANY PRESSURE TESTING OF THE GAS
SUPPLY SYSTEM AT TEST PRESSURES
IN EXCESS OF ½ PSIG (3.45 KPa).
