SECTION A - INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

A2 -

Accessories shipped in the vessel include:

A1 - Unpacking - With the container upright cut the plastic straps around shipping container and lift off top, exposing the Fryer. Check Fryer for any

visible damage due to exceptionally rough handling during shipping. Report damage to the delivering Freight Carrier within 15 days of delivery.

Accessories available as optional:

1 - Basket Hanger

2 - Baskets
1 - Drain Pipe Extension
1 - Flue Deflector Shield
4 - 6 inch Adjustable Legs

A3 - Mounting of Legs or Casters - Carefully tip Fryer up on its back and screw legs or (optional) casters into the threaded base of Fryer. When
installing casters make sure the swivel lock casters are mounted towards the front of Fryer. A high strength Restrainer and Quick disconnect Gas
Connector must be installed when casters are used. Avoid putting any strain on rear legs or casters when tipping Fryer back to an upright position.

A4 - Pre-installation Instructions - The installation of your Fryer must be made by a licensed plumber and the installation must conform with State
and Local Codes or in the absence of Local Codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 a-Latest Edition.

A5 - Air Supply and Ventilation - Adequate ventilation and air supply must be provided in order for the Fryer to operate property and efficiently. The

area in front of and above the Fryer must be clear to avoid any obstruction of flow of combustion and ventilation air. Do not. under any circumstances,
connect the Fryer flue directly to a building exhaust system or place the flue outlet directly into the plenum of the exhaust hood as it will adversely
affect the gas combustion of the Fryer.

The vent system should be of such design as to allow easy access for cleaning and degreasing on a regular basis in order to prevent fires. An
automatic fire extinguishing system should be an integral part of the vent design. Since the temperature of the flue gases emanating from Fryer flue
can reach 1200°F, temperature sensing devices of the automatic fire extinguishing system must be sized accordingly and located so as to avoid
premature turn-on. The minimum vertical distance from the top of Fryer flue to vent system filters should be 18 inches or more.

A6 - Clearances - Your Fryer is design certified for use on combustible floors. The minimum clearances for combustible and non-combustible
construction are as follows: 6 inches from SIDE and 6 inches from BACK. Fryer must be installed with 6 inch high legs or casters (optional). At least
16 inches clearance must be provided between frying surface of fryer and the surface flames from any adjacent cooking equipment.

A7 - Gas Connection - Before connecting Fryer to gas line, check the rating label on inside of door panel to make sure that the gas type called for on
label coincides with the type of gas available on sift. A 1/2 inch NPT gas pipe connection is provided at the rear of Fryer. An accessible manual shut­off valve must be installed in the gas supply line ahead of the Fryer for future service. The size of the supply pipe must be sized to accommodate all
the gas fire equipment that may be connected to the gas supply. Check with your local Gas Company as to proper pipe size. Only pipe sealant
resistant to action of L.P. gas should be used on pipe joints. Before attempting to light Fryer check joints for gas tightness using a soap and water
solution. DO NOT USE AN OPEN FLAME.

A8 - Flexible Gas Connectors and Restraints (see Illustration 1) - For Fryers equipped with casters, installation shall be made with a connector that
complies with the Standard for Connectors for movable Gas Appliances, ANSI Z21.69 or CAN/CGA-6.16 and a Quick-disconnect Device coupling
with Standard for Quick-disconnect Devices for use with Gas Fuel ANSI Z21.41 or CAN1-6.9. Adequate means shall be provided to limit the
movement of Fryer to prevent undue strain on the Connector or Quick-disconnect Devise. A high strength Restrainer and proper Quick-disconnect
Gas Connector conforming to above ANSI or CAN standards should be ordered from Fryer Manufacturer in conjunction with NSF listed casters. If
disconnection of the Restraint is necessary for serving of Fryer, the Restraint must be reconnected after appliance has been returned to its originally
installed position.
