2.3Pre-Connection Preparations

DANGER

Do not connect this appliance to the gas supply before completing each step in this section.

After the fryer has been positioned under the exhaust hood, ensure the following has been accomplished:

1.Adequate means must be provided to limit the movement of fryers without depending upon the gas line connections. If a flexible gas hose is used, a restraining cable must be connected at all times when the fryer is in use. The restraining cable and installation instructions are packed with the flexible hose in the accessories box that was shipped with your unit.

2.Single unit fryers must be stabilized by installing restraining chains on appliances equipped with casters or anchor straps on appliances equipped with legs. Follow the instruction shipped with the casters/legs to properly install the chains or straps.

DANGER

Do not attach an apron drain board to a single unit. The appliance may become unstable, tip over, and cause injury. The appliance area must be free and clear of combustible material at all times.

3.Level fryers equipped with legs by screwing out the legs approximately 1 inch then adjusting them so that the fryer is level and at the proper height in the exhaust hood. Frymaster recommends that the minimum distance from the flue outlet to the bottom edge of the filter be 24 in. (600 mm) when the appliance consumes more than 120,000 BTU per hour.

For fryers equipped with casters, there are no built-in leveling devices. The floor where the fryer is to be installed must be level.

4.Test the fryer electrical system:

a.Plug the fryer electrical cord(s) into a grounded electrical receptacle.

b.Place the power switch in the "ON" position.

•For fryers equipped with thermostat controls, verify that the power and heat lights are lit.

•For fryers having computer or digital displays, verify that the display indicates .

c.Place the fryer power switch in the "OFF" position. Verify that the power and heat lights are out, or that the display is blank.

5.Refer to the data plate on the inside of the fryer door to determine if the fryer burner is configured for the proper type of gas before connecting the fryer quick-disconnect device or piping from the gas supply line.
