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 each burner (Fig. 2).

Fig. 2

– 9 –

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).

3.CAN/CGA-B149.1 National Fuel Gas Code (latest edition), available from The Canadian Gas Association, 178 Rexdale Rd., Etobicoke, Ontario, Canada M9W 1R3.

– 10 –

ASSEMBLY

When installed, the fryer must be restrained to prevent tipping in to avoid the splashing of hot liquid. The means of restraint may be the manner of installation, such as connection to a battery of appliances or installing the fryer in an alcove, or by separate means, such as adequate ties.

Fryers Mounted on Legs (Non-Batteried Fryers)

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.

Fryers Mounted on Casters

Separate instructions for installing casters to the fryer are included with the casters.

For an appliance equipped; with casters, instructions that (1) the installation shall be made with a connector that complies with the Standard for Connectors for Movable Gas Appliances, ANSI Z21.69 or Connectors for Moveable Gas Appliances, CAN/CGA-6.16, and a quick-disconnect device that complies with the Standard for Quick-Disconnect Devices for Use With Gas Fuel, ANSI Z21.41, or Quick Disconnect Devices for Use with Gas Fuel, CANI-6.9, (2) adequate means must be provided to limit the movement of the appliance.

The fryer must be installed with a connector (not supplied by Vulcan) complying with the above code(s).

The fryer must be installed with restraining means to guard against transmission of strain to the connector, as specified in the manufacturer's instructions (Fig. 3).

The fryer must be installed with the casters provided.

Turn the gas supply off before disconnecting the restraint.
