Step #5: Gas Connection (Continued)
Connect the gas supply directly to the 3/4" male NPT connector located near the lower left rear
corner of the fryer. When tightening the supply pipe, be sure to hold the mating connector extending
from the unit securely with a wrench. This will prevent any damage or distortion to the internal piping
and controls of the unit.
Checking For Gas Leaks
: Using a gas leak detector or a soapy water solution is recommended
for locating gas leaks. Matches, candle flame, or other sources of ignition shall not be used for
this purpose. Check
entire
piping system including the
internal piping
and
Pipe Union
inside
of the fryer for leaks.
DO NOT use an open flame to check for leaks. Check all gas piping
for leaks with a soap and water solution before operating the unit.
After connecting the gas supply, check again that the fryer is level. Use a long spirit level four ways;
across the front and rear of the frypot, and along each edge.
Do not restrict the flow of gas. Use only commercially approved gas appliance
connectors OR flexible hoses! Non-commercial connectors or flexible hoses
will void your warranty.
