CHECKING YOUR NEW FRYER

Your new fryer has been carefully packed into one crate. Every effort has been made to ensure that your fryer is delivered to you in perfect condition. As you unpack your new fryer, inspect each of the pieces for damage. If something is damaged, DO NOT sign the bill of lading. Contact the shipper immediately, the shipper is only responsible for 15 days after delivery. Check the packing list enclosed with your fryer to ensure that you have received all of the parts to the fryer. If you are missing any parts, contact the dealer from whom the fryer was purchased.

CAUTION

To prevent equipment damage, don't tilt the fryer onto any two of it's casters or pull the unit by the flue

vents.

Locate your Pitco Frialator warranty and fill in the serial number of the fryer and the date received. You will find the serial number on the plate inside the door. Put your warranty card in a safe place for future reference. DO NOT return the card to Pitco Frialator.

INSTALLATION

Although it is possible for you to install and set up your new fryer, it is STRONGLY recommended that you have it done by qualified professionals. The professionals that install your new fryer will know the local building codes and ensure that your installation is safe.

WARNING

Leveling

When you receive your fryer it is completely assembled. The fryer will need to be leveled once it is in place. Leveling the fryer is done with a large pair of water pump pliers. The casters provide the necessary height to meet sanitation requirements and assure adequate air supply to the burner.

b.Move the fryer to the desired location and lock the wheels using the locking devices on the sides of the casters.
