DANGER!

THIS FRYER MAY TIP AND CAUSE PERSONAL INJURY IF

NOT SECURED IN A

STATIONARY POSITION. REMOVE ALL SHORTENING BEFORE MOVING FRYER AS IT MAY CAUSE SEVERE BURNS UPON CONTACT.

3.2LEG AND CASTER INSTALLATION:

a.General:

1.Install legs and casters (optional) near where the fryer is to be used, as neither are secure for long transit. Unit cannot be curb mounted and must be equipped with the legs (or legs and optional rigid casters) provided.

2.When positioning the fryer, gently lower the fryer into position to prevent undue strain to the legs and internal mounting hardware. Use a pallet or lift jack to lift and position the fryer if possible. Tilting the fryer may damage the legs.

3.If the optional rigid casters are to be installed on the fryer, the casters

must be installed on the fryer rear channel assembly only.

4.Proceed to Step 3.3, Leveling, after legs and/or optional rear rigid casters are installed to ensure the fryer is level before using.

b.Leg Installation:

1.Remove unit from pallet.

2.Carefully raise unit with forklift, pallet jack, or other steady means.

3.Insert hex head bolts (1/4-20 threads by 19mm (¾") long) from top of side panels and channels through bolt holes of leg mounting plates as shown in the Figure 3-1 on the next page.

4.Mount washer and lock nuts (1/4-20 threads Stover lock nut) from bottom of the leg mounting plates. The lock nut has a portion of threads deflected. Make sure the nut starts freely on the bolt like a common nut until the deflected thread portion is reached.

5.On the front door hinge corner, the bolts will be inserted first through the holes of the hinge plate, then followed with side panel, channel, and leg mounting plate.

6.Tighten the bolts and nuts with each bolt to 5.65 joules (50 inch-lbs.) minimum torque.

CAUTION

FOR CASTER RETROFIT, THE UNIT MUST BE AT ROOM TEMPERATURE AND DRAINED OF SHORTENING BEFORE INSTALLING THE CASTERS.

c.Installing Optional Rear Rigid Casters:

1.Install casters only at the rear of the unit as shown in the Figure 3-1.

2.Follow the same instructions for leg installations as given above in steps 3.2.b.1-6.
