CHAPTER 2: INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

2.1.3 Australian Requirements

To be installed in accordance with AS 5601 / AG 601, local authority, gas, electricity, and any other relevant statutory regulations.

2.2 Fryer Installation

WARNING

Frymaster fryers equipped with legs are for permanent installations. Fryers fitted with legs must be lifted during movement to avoid damage and possible bodily injury. For a moveable or portable installation, Frymaster optional equipment casters must be used. Questions? Call 1-800-551-8633

1. To level fryers equipped with legs, the bottom of the legs can be screwed out up to 1-inch for

leveling. Legs should be adjusted so that the fryer is at the proper height in the frying station. For fryers equipped with casters, there are no built-in leveling devices. The floor where the fryer is installed must be level.

NOTE: If you need to relocate a fryer installed with legs, remove all the weight from each leg before moving. If a leg becomes damaged, contact your service agent for immediate repair or replacement.

WARNING Hot shortening can cause severe burns. Avoid contact. Under all circumstances, oil must be removed from the fryer before attempting to move it to avoid oil spills and the falls and severe burns that could occur. This fryer may tip and cause personal injury if not secured in a stationary position.

2. When the fryer is leveled in its final position, install the restraints provided with the unit to limit

its movement so that it does not depend on or transmit stress to the electrical conduit or connection as well as to prevent tipping. Install the restraints in accordance with the provided instructions (see illustration on the following page). If the restraints are disconnected for service or other reasons, they MUST be reconnected before the fryer is used.
