CHAPTER 3: INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

3.3 Leveling the Fryer (cont.)

ANSI Z83.11/11a-(Latest Edition) requires a fryer be restrained to prevent tipping when installed in order to avoid the splashing of hot liquid. The means of restraint may be the manner of installation, such as connection to battery of appliances or installing the fryer in an alcove, or by separate means, such as adequate ties (chains, straps, etc.). A bracket has been provided on the fryer back panel for this purpose.

NOTE: The installation must be inspected after it is complete to ensure it meets the intent of these instructions. The on-site supervisor and/or operator(s) should be informed that the appliance is installed with restraints. If restraints are removed to move fryer (e.g., to clean beneath and behind, to relocate) ensure that they are re-installed when fryer is returned to its permanently installed position.

For information on fryer restraints, see Section 2.8.

3.4 Gas Connections

The gas supply (service) line must be the same size or greater than the fryer inlet line. YSCFH18G gas fryers are equipped with a ¾-inch (22-mm) male inlet. The gas supply line must be sized to accommodate all gas-fired equipment connected to that gas supply. Consult local gas companies/suppliers or your local contractor for minimum supply line requirements.

Supply Line Specifications

The gas supply lines must be sized as indicated in the chart below, based on the total number of fryers connected to the main gas supply.

Recommended Gas Supply Line Sizes

Gas Types	Number of Fryers
	1	2 to 3	4 or more*
Natural Gas	¾" (22 mm)	1" (28 mm)	1¼ " (35 mm)
Propane Gas	½" (15 mm)	¾" (22 mm)	1" (28 mm)

*When exceeding 18 feet (6 meters) for a configuration of more than four fryers, it is necessary to provide a 1¼" (35 mm) rigid gas connection.

DANGER

All connections must be sealed with a joint compound suitable for the gas being used and all connections must be tested with a solution of soapy water before lighting any pilots.

Never use matches, candles, or any other ignition source to check for leaks. If gas odors are detected, shut off the gas supply to the appliance at the main shut-off valve and immediately contact the local gas company or an authorized service agency for service.
