FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD
GAS CONNECTIONS AND GAS ADJUSTMENTS MUST BE MADE BY
A LICENSED PLUMBER, CERTIFIED IN GAS INSTALLATION
A gas explosion will cause death or serious injury.
1.The installation of this fryer must conform to local codes. In the absence of local codes, the installation of this fryer must conform with the National Fuel Gas Code (ANSI Z223.1).
In Canada, the National Gas Installation Code (CAN/CGAB149.2) is applicable.
2.The fryer must be isolated from municipal gas pressure or LP/propane tank pressure by a gas pressure regulator.
In any instance where gas line pressure is in excess of 15” of water column (1/2 psi or 3.45kP), as during gas line testing or regulator maintenance, the fryer must be isolated from the supply piping by closing its two individual manual

3.This fryer requires specific gas pressure (at the burner orifice) for proper operation: Natural gas @ 3.5” of water column; or,
LP/propane @ 10” of water column.
The gas valve is rated for a maximum of 15” of water column incoming line pressure.
4.Gas pressure must be checked for BOTH burner systems, while the fryer is in operation. This pressure is measured
by connecting a manometer to the pressure tap on the
gas control valve (pressure tap is threaded 1/8” NPT) :
a. Press the power switch to OFF. Turn the gas
b. Remove the pressure tap plug and insert an
appropriate manometer.
c. Turn the gas
d. Read the manometer while the gas control valve is energized.
5. If adjustment is necessary, remove the regulator seal screw and, using a small,
