INSTALLATION

Before installing the fryer, verify that the type of gas (natural or propane) agrees with the specifications on the fryer data plate, which is located on the inside of the door panel. Ensure the fryer is configured for the proper elevation.

UNPACKING

This fryer was carefully inspected before leaving the factory. The transportation company assumes full responsibility for safe delivery upon acceptance of the shipment.

Immediately after unpacking the fryer, check for possible shipping damage. If the fryer is damaged, save the packaging material and contact the carrier within 15 days of delivery.

Do not use the door or its handle to lift the fryer. Remove tiedown straps from the burners (Fig. 2).

LOCATION

The equipment area must be kept free and clear of combustible substances. Minimum clearance from combustible construction is 6" (15 cm) from the sides and 6" (15 cm) from the back of the fryer. Minimum clearance from noncombustible construction is 0" from the sides and 0" from the back.

At least 16" (41 cm) clearance must be between the fryer and any open-top flame units. Adequate clearances for servicing and proper operation must be allowed. The fryer may be installed on combustible floors.

Install the fryer in an area with sufficient air supply for combustion of the gas at the fryer burners. Provide adequate clearance for air openings into the combustion chamber. Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air. Do not permit fans to blow directly on the fryer. Avoid wall-type fans which create cross-currents within a room. Avoid open windows next to the sides or back.

INSTALLATION CODES AND STANDARDS

The fryer must be installed in accordance with:

In the United States of America:

1. State and local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with:

2. National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI-Z223.1 (latest edition), available from The American Gas Association, Inc., 1515 Wilson Blvd., Arlington, VA 22209.

3. National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA70 (latest edition) (if applicable).

In Canada:

1. Local codes.

2. CSA Standard C22.2 No. 3 Electrical Features of Fuel Burning Equipment (latest edition).

Fryers serviced from the rear must have a minimum clearance of 18" (46 cm) from the wall when mounted on legs.

1. Position fryer in an open space near the final installation area.

2. Tilt fryer on its side. Be careful not to scratch the finish.

3. Thread legs into mounting holes provided on bottom of fryer, then tighten.

4. Carefully raise fryer to its normal position.
