1.5.2.1Lighting Instructions for Manual Pilot Lights - To light the pilot light refer to the following instructions.

WARNING

Wait 5 minutes before attempting to relight the pilot to allow for any gas in the fryer to dissipate.

a.Open the gas supply valves to the fryer.

b.Turn the thermostat control knob counterclockwise to the OFF position.

c.Turn the gas valve knob to the PILOT position and push in on the knob. Hold the knob in for approximately one minute to purge the air out of the line. Hold a flame to the pilot light until the pilot ignites. This may take a little while the first time you light the fryer because of air in the lines. Once lit, hold the knob in for approximately 60 seconds and then release.

1.5.2.1.1Pilot Flame Adjustment - The pilot flame should be adjusted to produce the proper millivolt output from the pilot sensing device. Millivolt output for the thermopile should be between 300 and 500 millivolts. This procedure is only necessary on the manual pilot ignition system. Figure 1-1 shows the pilot assembly with examples of the incorrect and correct pilot size. Example A illustrates a pilot flame size that is too small to produce sufficient millivolt output. Example B is the correct size for proper millivolt output.
