CHAPTER 2: INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

2.1 General Installation Requirements

PROPER INSTALLATION IS ESSENTIAL FOR EFFICIENT, TROUBLE-FREE OPERATION OF YOUR FRYER. ANY UNAUTHORIZED ALTERATIONS MADE TO THIS EQUIPMENT WILL VOID THE FRYMASTER WARRANTY.

Upon arrival, inspect the fryer carefully for visible or concealed damage. (See Shipping Damage Claim Procedure in Chapter 1.)

CLEARANCE AND VENTILATION

The fryer(s) must be installed with a 6” (150 mm) clearance at both sides and back when installed adjacent to combustible construction; no clearance is required when installed adjacent to noncombustible construction. A minimum of 24” (600 mm) clearance should be provided at the front of the fryer.

Adequate distances must be maintained from the flue outlet of the fryer to the lower edge of the ventilation filter bank. Filters should be installed at an angle of 45º. Place a drip tray beneath the lowest edge of the filter. For U.S. installation, NFPA standard No. 96 states, “A minimum distance of 18 in. (450 mm) should be maintained between the flue outlet and the lower edge of the grease filter.” Frymaster

recommends that the minimum distance be 24 in. (600 mm) from the flue outlet to the bottom edge of the filter when the appliance consumes more than 120,000 BTU per hour.

Information on construction and installation of ventilating hoods can be found in the NFPA standard cited above. A copy of the standard may be obtained from the National Fire Protection Association, Battery March Park, Quincy, MA 02269.

One of the most important considerations of efficient fryer operation is ventilation. Make sure the fryer is installed so that products of combustion are removed efficiently, and that the kitchen ventilation system does not produce drafts that interfere with proper burner operation.

The fryer flue opening must not be placed close to the intake of the exhaust fan, and the fryer must never have its flue extended in a “chimney” fashion. An extended flue will change the combustion characteristics of the fryer, causing longer recovery time. It also frequently causes delayed ignition. To provide the airflow necessary for good combustion and burner operation, the areas surrounding the fryer front, sides, and rear must be kept clear and unobstructed.

Fryers must be installed in an area with an adequate air supply and adequate ventilation.

DANGER

Do not attach an apron drainboard to a

single fryer. The fryer may become

unstable, tip over, and cause injury.

The appliance area must be kept free

and clear of combustible material at all

times.

NATIONAL CODE REQUIREMENTS

The type of gas for which the fryer is equipped is stamped on the data plate attached to the inside of the fryer door. Connect a fryer stamped “NAT” only to natural gas, those stamped “PRO” only to propane gas, and those stamped “MFG” only to manufactured gas.

Installation shall be made with a gas connector that complies with national and local codes, and, where applicable, CE codes. Quickdisconnect devices, if used, shall likewise

47 SERIES GAS FRYERS

CHAPTER 2: INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

2.3 Pre-Connection Preparations

DANGER

Do not connect fryer to gas supply

before completing each step

in this section.

After the fryer has been positioned under the fry station exhaust hood, ensure the following has been accomplished:

1. Adequate means must be provided to limit

the movement of fryers without depending upon the gas line connections. If a flex ible gas hose is used, a restraining cable must be connected at all times when the fryer is in use. The restraining cable and installation instructions are packed with the flexible hose in the accessories box that was shipped with your unit.

4. Test the fryer electrical system:

a. Plug the fryer electrical cord(s) into a

grounded electrical receptacle.

b. Place the power switch in the ON

position.

• For fryers equipped with thermo-

stat controls, verify that the power and heat lights are lit.

• For fryers having computer or

digital displays, verify that the display indicates CYCL.

c. Place the fryer power switch in the

OFF position. Verify that the power and heat lights are out, or that the display is blank.

2. Single unit fryers must be stabilized by

installing restraining chains on fryers equipped with casters or anchor straps on fryers equipped with legs. Follow the instructions shipped with the casters/legs to properly install the chains or straps.

3. Level fryers equipped with legs by screw-

ing out the legs approximately 1 inch then adjusting them so that the fryer is level and at the proper height in the exhaust hood. Frymaster recommends that the minimum distance from the flue outlet to the bottom edge of the filter be 24 in. (600 mm) when the appliance consumes more than 120,000 BTU per hour.

For fryers equipped with casters, there are no built-in leveling devices. The floor where the fryer is to be installed must be level.

5. Refer to the data plate on the inside of the fryer door to determine if the fryer burner is configured for the proper type of gas before connecting the fryer quick-disconnect device or piping from the gas supply line.

6. Verify the minimum and maximum gas supply pressures for the type of gas to be used in accordance with the accompanying tables.

CHAPTER 2: INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

1. Connect the quick-disconnect hose to the

fryer quick-disconnect fitting under the front of the fryer and to the building gas line.

NOTE: Some fryers are configured for a rigid connection to the gas supply line. These units are connected to the gas supply line at the rear of the unit.

When using thread compound, use very small amounts on male threads only. Use a pipe thread compound that is not affected by the chemical action of LP gases (Loctite™ PST56765 Sealant is one such compound). DO NOT apply compound to the first two threads. This will ensure that the burner orifices and control valve do not become clogged.

2. Open the gas supply to the fryer and check

all piping, fittings, and gas connections for leaks. A soap solution should be used for this purpose.

DANGER

Never use matches, candles, or any

other ignition source to check for

leaks.

If gas odors are detected, shut off the

gas supply to the fryer

at the main shut-off valve and contact

the local gas company or an

authorized service agency for service.

CHAPTER 3: OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

3.1 Start-Up Procedure

CAUTION If this is the first time the fryer is being used after installation, refer to Section

3.2, Boil-Out Procedure.

CAUTION The cooking oil/shortening capacity of

the 47 Series fryer is 50 lbs (25 liters) at 70ºF (21ºC) for a full pot and 25 lbs

(12.5 liters) at 70ºF (21ºC) for each half

of a split pot.

Before lighting the fryer, make sure the

fryer is OFF and the frypot drain valve(s) is/are closed. Remove the basket support rack(s), if installed,

and fill the frypot to the bottom

OIL-LEVEL line.

If solid shortening is being used,

make sure it is packed down into

the bottom of the frypot.

For units equipped with Pilot Systems, the pilot must be manually lit before the fryer can be placed into operation. The pilot on fryers with Electronic Igni tion is automatically lit when the unit is turned on.

Lighting the Robertshaw Valve Pilot:

1. Ensure power to the unit is OFF.

2. Turn the gas valve knob to the OFF posi-

tion. Wait 5 minutes, then turn the knob to the PILOT position.

unit will automatically switch to the Heating mode. The burner will remain lit until the frypot temperature reaches the programmed cooking temperature (setpoint).

3.2 Boiling-Out the Frypot

To ensure that the frypot is free of any contamination resulting from its manufacture, shipping, and handling during installation, the frypot must be boiled out before first use.

Frymaster recommends boiling out the frypot

each time the oil or shortening is changed.

DANGER

Never leave the fryer unattended

during the boil-out process. If the boil-

out solution boils over, turn off power

to the fryer immediately and let the

solution cool for a few minutes before

resuming the process.

CAUTION

The fryer will stay in the Melt Cycle

mode until the Melt Cycle Switch is

placed in the OFF position.

For units equipped with other than Thermostat Controls:

Place the computer/controller ON/OFF switch in the ON position and set the thermostat to—or program the controller for—the desired cooking temperature, referred to as the setpoint. The U-shaped burner should “light off” and burn with a strong, blue flame. The unit automatically enters the Melt Cycle mode if the frypot temperature is below 180ºF (82ºC). (NOTE: During the melt cycle, the burner will repeatedly fire for a few seconds, then go out for a longer period.) When the frypot temperature reaches 180ºF (82ºC), the

Sensitivity is a built-in feature that adjusts cooking time to compensate for the drop in frypot temperature when a basket of product is placed into it. Different food products will vary in density, basket load size, and initial temperature. Food products will also vary in how well cooked a product is required to be. A proper sensitivity setting for each product will assure a high-quality product each time. For example: four ounces of fries can be programmed to be cooked to the same quality as two and one-half pounds. Some experimenting with the range of 0 - 9 (0 being least sensitive and 9 being most sensitive) may be required to obtain the desired quality to meet your specifications, but setting 5 is the recommended starting point.

CHAPTER 4: FILTRATION INSTRUCTIONS

4.1 Draining and Manual Filtering

DANGER Allow oil/shortening to cool to 100ºF (38ºC) or lower before draining to an

appropriate container for disposal.

If your fryer is not equipped with the built-in Foo t P r int III F iltration System, the cooking oil or shortening must be drained into another suitable container. FOR SAFE, CONVENIENT

DRAINING AND DISPOSAL OF USED COOKING OIL OR SHORTENING,

MENDS USING THE DISPOSAL UNIT (SDU). THE SDU IS AVAILABLE

THROUGH YOUR LOCAL DISTRIBUTOR

Frymaster RECOM-

Frymaster™ SHORTENING

1. Turn the fryer power switch to the OFF position. Screw the drainpipe (provided with your fryer) into the drain valve. Make sure the drainpipe is firmly screwed into the drain valve and that the opening is pointing down.

2. Position a metal container with a sealable cover under the drainpipe. The metal container must be able to withstand the heat of the cooking oil/shortening and hold hot liquids. If you intend to reuse the oil or shortening, Frymaster recommends that a

Frymaster™ filter cone holder and

filter cone be used when a filter machine is not available. If you are using a Frymaster filter cone holder, be sure that the cone holder rests securely on the metal container.

3. Open the drain valve slowly to avoid splattering. If the drain valve becomes clogged with food particles, use the Fryer’s Friend (poker-like tool) to clear the blockage.

DANGER

DO NOT insert anything into the drain

from the front to unclog the valve. Hot

oil/shortening will rush out, creating an

extreme hazard.

WARNING

DO NOT hammer on the drain valve

with the Fryer’s Friend. This will

damage the drain valve ball and

prevent the valve from sealing

securely, resulting in a leaky valve.

4. After draining the oil/shortening, clean all food particles and residual oil/shortening from the frypot. BE CAREFUL, this material may still cause severe burns if it comes in contact with bare skin.

5. Close the drain valve securely and fill the frypot with clean, filtered or fresh cooking oil or solid shortening to the bottom OIL- LEVEL line.

DANGER

When using solid shortening, pack the

shortening down into the bottom of the

frypot. DO NOT operate the fryer with

a solid block of shortening sitting in

the upper portion of the frypot. This

will cause damage to the frypot and

may cause a flash fire.

CHAPTER 4: FILTRATION INSTRUCTIONS

The overwhelming majority of reported problems with the Foot Print III system have been found to be the result of improper operation. Careful attention to the step-by-step instructions that follow will ensure that your system operates as intended.

PREPARING THE FILTER UNIT FOR USE

1. Slide the filter unit from the cabinet.

3. Ensure that the metal filter screen is in the bottom of the pan.

2. Open the cover and remove the crumb tray

and the paper hold-down ring.

CAUTION

Make sure the inside of the pan is free

of all food and breading particles that

could prevent the paper from sealing

against the bottom of the pan.

4. Lay a sheet of filter paper over the top of the filter pan, overlapping on all sides.

5. Position the hold-down ring over the filter paper and lower the ring into the pan, allowing the paper to fold up around the ring as it is pushed to the bottom of the pan.
