INSTALLATION
3.1
LEGS:
Install legs (or optional casters) near
where the fryer is to be used, as neither is
secure for long transit. Unit cannot be curb
mounted and must have legs or casters
installed. After unpacking, use a pallet or lift
jack to raise the unit about a foot to screw the
legs into their couplings and then lower gently
to prevent undue strain to the legs and internal
mounting hardware. Use a pallet or lift jack to
lift rather than manually tilting.
3.2
POSITIONING:
a.
Initial Installation: If installed with legs,
do not push against any unit edges to
adjust its position. Use a pallet or lift jack
to lift it slightly and place it where it is to
be installed.
b.
Relocating The Fryer: If relocating a fryer
installed with legs, remove all weight from
each leg before moving.
c.
If a leg becomes damaged during
movement, contact your service agent for
immediate repair/replacement of that leg.
3.3
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.
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.
c.
The legs have about one inch of
adjustment thread. When leveling the
unit, the leg body should be held firmly to
keep it from rotating while turning the
5/8” bottom-leg hex nut counter-
clockwise. Turn the hex nut to adjust
required height, the adjustment should not
exceed more than one inch. If the required
adjustment exceeds one inch, the unit will
be unstable and tipping can occur from the
bottom hex nut coming off.
d.
If the floor is uneven or has a decided
slope, a smooth platform is recommended
for placing the unit on and not relying on
leg thread adjustment; adjustment required
may exceed the thread available in the leg
and/or a castered line-up.
e.
After each move, as the fryer may not
return exactly to its previous position after
being moved, re-level the fryer as stated
above and verify the fryer is installed as
described in section 5.3.
3.4
GAS CONNECTIONS:
The gas supply
(service) line must be the same size or greater
than the fryer inlet line. This fryer uses a ¾”
NPT inlet; however, the gas supply lines must
be sized to accommodate all the gas-fired
equipment that may be connected to that gas
supply. Consult your contractor, gas
company, supplier, or other knowledgeable
authorities. Sealant on all pipe joints must be
resistive to LP gas.
a.
STANDARDS: Installation must be in
accordance with all applicable state and
local codes, taking into account the
following standards:
CAUTION
THIS FRYER MAY TIP AND CAUSE
PERSONAL INJURY IF NOT SECURED IN
A STATIONARY POSITION. REMOVE ALL
SHORTENING BEFORE MOVING FRYER
AS IT MAY CAUSE SEVERE BURNS UPON
CONTACT.
