If the fryer is moved, re-level the fryer following the instructions given in Steps 3.3.A-C.
D.
A fryer must be restrained to prevent tipping when installed in order to avoid the splashing of hot

ANSI Z83.11a-(Latest Edition) requires a fryer be restrained to prevent tipping when installed
in order to avoid the splashing of hot liquid. The means of restraint may be the manner of
installation, such as connection to battery of appliances or installing the fryer in an alcove, or
by separate means, such as adequate ties.
A bracket has been provided on the fryer back panel for
this purpose.
