The State of California enacted the California Safe
drinking water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986,
(Prop. 65), which “prohibits any person in the course of
doing business from knowingly and intentionally
exposing any individual to a chemical known to the
State of California to cause cancer or reproductive
toxicity without first giving clear and reasonable
warning to such individuals.” The Governor’s Scientific
Advisory Panel added carbon monoxide
to the list of
hazardous chemicals known to cause reproductive
harm.
In order to establish full compliance with Proposition
65, we attached a yellow warning label to each gas
fired appliance manufactured by Keating of Chicago,
Inc.
Carbon monoxide would not be present in
concentrations that would pose a “significant risk” to
the consumer when the equipment is installed,
operated and maintained as follows:
l Installed in accordance with all local codes, or in the
absence of local codes, with the current National
Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 (latest
edition).
l Installed under a properly designed operating
exhaust hood.
l Connected to the type of gas for which the appliance
is manufactured.
l In-line pressure regulator, not supplied by Keating,
must be inst
alled outside the appliance.
l The appliance is adjusted for the manifold pressure
marked on the serial plate.
l Adequate air supply to the appliance.
l The equipment is operated in the manner intended
using the proper utensils.
l Keep the equipment clean and have it checked
periodically
l Burner air adjustment
.
s, mechanical maintenance
and repairs must be performed by qualified service
personnel.
If the equipment is not installed, operated and
maintained in accordance with the above,
concentrations of carbon monoxide in excess of the
established limits could be present in the kitchen
environment.

II INSTALLATION
This fryer MUST be installed, inspected, calibrated and
serviced by qualified and/or certified and/or licensed
service personnel – you may void your Keating
warranty if installation is not completed per local,
national and Keating specifications. Contact your
dealer for assistance.
DAMAGE DURING
SHIPMENT
The fryer has been assembled, tested and inspected
at the factory. Upon arrival, the complete fryer should
be checked for any damage that may have occurred
during shipment.
The carrier is responsible for all damage in transit
whether visible or concealed. Do not pay for the freight
bill until the fryer has been thoroughly checked for
damage. If concealed damage is found later, contact
the carrier immediately to file a claim.
LEVELING
The fryer will operate at its highest efficiency when
roperly leveled. Place a level on fryer vessel from side
p
to side. For fryers on legs, the bottom foot of the leg is
adjustable. Turn counter clockwise to decrease height
or clockwise to increase height until level. For fryers on
casters, the casters are adjustable by loosening the
jam nut and turning the caster in or out. When the
desired level is reached, tighten the jam nut.
Adjustments of more than 3/4" are not recommended
on any caster. The same procedure should be followed
to level the fryer from front to back.
Figure 2-1
What to do if equipment arrives damaged:
VISIBLE LOSS OR DAMAGE—Be certain to note this
on the freight or express receipt and have it signed by
the delivery person.
FILE CLAIM FOR DAMAGES IMMEDIATELY –
Regardless of extent of damage.
CONCEALED LOSS OR DAMAGE—If damage is
noticed when equipment is unpacked, notify the freight
company immediately, and file a “concealed damage
claim”. This MUST be done immediately. Be sure to
retain the shipping container for inspection.
Keating does not assume responsibility for Loss OR
Damage incurred in transit.

RESTRAINING
DEVICES
On fryer installations with casters, casters and jam nuts
must be completely tightened. Adequate means must
also be provided to limit the movement of the appliance
without depending on the connector, the
quick-disconnect device or its associated piping to limit
the appliance movement.
Connectors must comply with the current ANSI
Z21.69/CAN 1 CAN/CGA 6.16 (latest edition) standard
for connectors for movable gas appliances. Quickdisconnect devices must comply with the current ANSI
Z21.41/CAN 1 6.9 standard for quick-disconnect
devices for use with gas fuel as applicable.
The restraint must be attached to the rear of the fryer
within 1" of the center line width and approximately 1"
from the bottom of the cabinet back to allow the
restraining bolt to be anchored through the leg channel
to ensure positive support to restrain fryer movement
and not depend on the connector, quick disconnect or
piping to limit the fryer movement.

ELECTRICAL
CONNECTION
The Keating Incredible Frying Machine (IFM) is
equipped with a 9' neoprene covered, 3 wire electrical
cord with a three-pronged grounded plug for protection
against electrical shock. This plug must be placed into
a 120V properly grounded three-pronged polarized
outlet. For proper grounding procedures see local
codes, or in the absence of local codes, the National
Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70 (latest edition) or
Canadian Electrical Code CAN 22.2 (latest edition) as
applicable.
CAUTION: Before plugging in the fryer, confirm the
outlet is properly polarized and grounded. If the hot and
neutral terminals are reversed or the outlet is not
properly grounded, the burners may not ignite (burner
on light will go out after 2-1/2 seconds).
NOTE: The electrical wiring diagram for the fryer is
located on the inside of the fryer door.
WARNING
DO NOT CUT OR REMOVE THE GROUNDING
PRONG FROM THIS PLUG.
FOR YOUR SAFETY: Do not store or use gasoline
or other flammable vapors and liquids in the
vicinity of this or any other appliance.
Connect the fryer to the main gas supply line at the rear
of the fryer. The piping should be a minimum of 3/4"
NPT supply pipe for a single fryer at the burner
manifold. Batteries require larger supply lines.
Installation must conform to the current local codes and
National Fuel Gas Code (U.S.) ANSI Z223. 1/NFPA 54
(latest edition), Natural Gas Installation Code
CAN/CGA-B149.1 or Propane Installation Code
CAN/CGA-B149.2 (latest edition).
NOTE: If more than one gas fryer is on the same supply
line, you may require a larger line. Consult your local gas
company to assure adequate volume and pressure.
Refer to serial plate for proper gas requirements for your
particular model.
NOTE: Piping for a battery should be at least 1-1/4" to
1-1/2" IPS, depending on total BTU input. Consult your
local gas supplier for appropriate battery piping size.
GAS LEAK
TESTING
Prior to lighting your fryer:
1. Make sure all thermostats, switches and safety
valves are in the “OFF” position.
2. Turn main On/Off manual gas valve to the “ON”
position.
3. Have your plumber or gas company check for
leaks with a soap solution. (NEVER check with an
open flame!)
Figure 2-4
IFM Control Panel
NOTE: It is estimated that half of all service calls made
on Keating Incredible Frying Machine Gas Fryers (IFM)
result from an inadequate gas supply. During
installation, have a gas company representative make
certain that the fryer is receiving adequate gas
pressure and volume.

WARNING
PROPANE GAS MAY EVENTUALLY LOSE ITS
ODOR AND PRECAUTIONS SHOULD BE TAKEN TO
ASSURE THAT IT IS NOT PRESENT EVEN THOUGH
OU DO NOT DETECT AN ODOR. IF THERE IS ANY
Y
DOUBT, YOU SHOULD CALL YOUR LOCAL
PROPANE GAS SUPPLIER FOR ASSISTANCE.
CALIBRATION
For Calibration, refer to page 9 – Calibration.
III OPERATING
FILLING
NOTE: Before filling the fryer make certain the fryer
vessel is sanitized, dry and the drain valve is
completely closed. Refer to item 19 on page 15 for
location of drain valve.
NOTE: We recommend that solid shortening not be
used in an Incredible Frying Machine Gas Fryer (IFM)
as they are not equipped with a melt cycle. If solid
shortening is used, it should be melted prior to filling
the fryer vessel. Damage done by melting solid
shortening in the fryer vessel will void the warranty.
Figure 3-1
Fill Level Line
Fill the fryer vessel with oil or MELTED solid shortening
up to the “Fill Level” line.
LIGHTING
WARNING
BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO LIGHT THE FRYER,
MAKE SURE THE GAS CONNECTIONS ARE
SECURE, HAVE BEEN LEAK TESTED, AND THE
FRYER HAS BEEN PROPERLY FILLED WITH
OIL.
1. Turn on main power switch.
2. Set thermostat to desired setting. (Between
325°F/162.8°C) – (335°F/165.3°C)
3. Once main power switch is on and the thermostat
is set, the following occurs:
