1.2CHECKING YOUR NEW FRYER
Your new fryer has been carefully packed into a crate. Every effort has been made to ensure that your fryer will be delivered to you in perfect condition. As you unpack your new fryer, inspect each of the pieces for damage. If something is damaged, DO NOT sign the bill of lading. Contact the shipper immediately, because the shipper is only responsible for 15 days after delivery. Check the packing list enclosed with your fryer to ensure that you have received all of the parts to the fryer. If you are
missing any parts, contact the dealer from whom the fryer was purchased. As you unpack the fryer | ||
and it's accessories be careful to keep the weight of the fryer evenly distributed. | ||

1.3ASSEMBLY AND LEVELING
When you receive your fryer it is completely assembled with the exception of the legs, flue, splashback, and the heat shield. If the unit comes with a drainboard, it will need to be assembled.
1.3.1Leg Installation and Adjustment
Installing the legs and leveling the fryer is done with a 7/16" wrench, socket, and a large pair of water pump pliers. The legs must be installed before connecting the unit to the gas supply. The legs provide the necessary height to meet sanitation requirements and assure adequate air supply to the burner. Attach the legs by performing the following procedure.
a. Lay the fryer on its back being careful not to damage the flue by pulling on it. Protect the outside of the fryer with cardboard or a drop cloth when laying it down.
b. Attach each leg with the hex head cap screws supplied with the fryer. Each leg requires four
c. Mount the screws from the inside of the fryer with the nut on the outside of the cooker. The nuts have lock washers attached to them, therefore it is not necessary to use lock washers.
