VENTILATION
The Keating Gas Fryer must be installed in an area
providing adequate air supply and ventilation. Do not
obstruct the fl ow of combustion and ventilation air.
Proper ventilation is one of the important consider-
ations for effi cient operation of the Keating Gas Fryer.
It should be installed so that the products of combus-
tion are removed effi ciently without producing drafts
that will interfere with proper burner operation. The
intake for the exhaust fan should not be placed close
to the fl ue of the Keating Gas Fryer to insure proper air
fl ow necessary for combustion. The area around the
front and bottom of the Keating Gas Fryer must be
kept clear and unobstructed. In the USA, the ventila-
tion systems must conform to the ANSI/NFPA96 latest
edition. “A minimum of 18" (457mm) should be main-
tained between the fl ue outlet and the lower edge of
the grease fi lters.” Must be installed at least 16" away
from any open fl ame. It is the responsibility of the
owner and the local installer to comply with national
and local codes.
NATIONAL CODE REQUIREMENT
The installation must conform with local codes, or in
the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel
Gas code, ANSI Z223.1 or the Natural gas Installation
Code, CAN/CGA-B149.1 or the Propane Installation
Code, CAN/CGA-B149.2. Flexible connectors must
comply to ANSI Z221.69/CAN/CGA1.16. Keating
equipment is designed and manufactured to oper-
ate only on the type of gas specifi ed by the user and
indicated on the serial plate located inside the door.
The gas may be natural, propane or manufactured. The
type of gas cannot be converted to another gas fuel by
turning or engaging a switch.
LEVELING
The fryer will operate at its highest effi ciency when
properly leveled. Place a level on fryer vessel from
side to side. For fryers on legs, the bottom foot of the
leg is adjustable. Turn counter clockwise to decrease
height or clockwise to increase height until level.
For fryers on casters, the casters are adjustable by
loosening the jam nut and turning the caster in or out.
When the desired level is reached, tighten the jam nut.
Adjustments of more than 3/4" are not recommended
on any caster. The same procedure should be followed
to level the fryer from front to back.
RESTRAINING DEVICES
1. Adequate means must be pro-
vided 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.
Fryer must also be restrained to
prevent tipping when installed so
that hot liquid splashing is
avoided.
2. The restraint means must be attached to the rear of
the Keating Gas Fryer within 2" of the center line width
and approximately 1-5/8" from the bottom of the cabi-
net back to allow the restraining bolt to be anchored
to the cabinet back between the cabinet bottom and
inner liner.
