THIS APPLIANCE AND ITS INDIVIDUAL COMBINATION GAS VALVE MUST BE DISCONNECTED
FROM THE GAS SUPPLY PIPING SYSTEM DURING ANY PRESSURE TESTING OF THAT SYSTEM
AT TEST PRESSURES IN EXCESS OF 14”WC (1/2 PSIG or 3.45 kPa).
If the incoming gas pressure is in excess of 14"WC (1/2PSI, 3.45 kPa), a proper step-down regulator will
be required.
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.
