1.2ASSEMBLY AND LEVELING
1.2.1Leg/Caster Installation and Adjustment
Installing the legs and leveling the cooker is done using a 1/2" wrench and a large pair of water pump pliers. The legs must be installed before connecting the cooker to the electric supply. The legs provide the necessary height to meet sanitation requirements. Attach the legs to the cooker by performing the following procedures:
a. Place a blanket, piece of cardboard, or some other material on the floor behind the cooker.
b. Place the cooker on its back. DO NOT pull on the element junction box. You can damage the elements by pulling on it.
c. Attach each leg/caster to the cooker with four
d.Mount the screws from the inside of the cooker with the lock washer and nut on the outside of the cooker as shown in the adjoining
illustration.
e. When all four legs/casters are secured, place the cooker in the upright position. Be careful not to put too much weight on individual legs/casters when standing the cooker upright.
f. On fryers with casters, move the fryer to the desired location and lock the wheels using the locking devices on the sides of the casters.
g. Adjust the height and level the cooker by adjusting the leveling devices on the legs with water pump pliers.
1.2.2Basket Lift Access
The basket lift mechanisms are installed at the factory and do not need adjustment. If it is necessary to gain access to the basket lift motors or linkage, the rear panel of the cooker must be removed. The motors do not require lubrication.
