Installation Instructions
IMPORTANT NOTE
The exhaust fan in your ventless hood should be lubricated at least every six (6) months. Call Technical
Services at 1-800-288-1555 for instructions.
DO NOT Modify, Alter or Add Attachments to This Equipment!
The previous steps will help to ensure safe and proper installation of your fryer. If you have any questions
concerning these procedures, contact your local Chester Fried distributor or other qualified service per-
son.
1 - 2 Removal of Fryer from Crate
Your Chester Fried Fryer may arrive enclosed by a wooden crate. If your unit arrived uncrated, go to
Section 1-3. The Fryer is secured to a wooden platform by means of high-tensile strength strapping.
1.
Carefully cut and remove the plastic shipping wrap and the strapping mentioned above.
2.
Use pliers to loosen wire hooks which secure the wooden crate around the fryer. CF 400 VH and
CF 500 VH fryers are enclosed in a two-piece crate. Remove the wooden crate(s).
3.
Carefully remove the fryer from the shipping platform. Your new fryer is extremely heavy and great care
should be taken in lifting or moving the unit to prevent personal injury or equipment damage.
1 - 3 Ventilation of Fryers
Your new Chester Fried Electric Fryer has been designed either for operation beneath a traditional exhaust
hood or in the case of Ventless Hood Fryers, as a self-contained unit requiring no hood or duct system.
We strongly recommend you consult a professional ventilation or heating and air conditioning company for
assistance in designing a hood for those models which require an exhaust system.
IMPORTANT NOTE
Guidelines for proper ventilation system requirements may differ. Always consult with local authorities to
ensure compliance.
