Frymaster EH1721 Installation & Operation Manual page 8

A FRYER MUST BE LEVEL BEFORE FILLING WITH OIL. IF THE
FRYER IS NOT LEVEL, THE FRYER MAY TIP OVER AND MAY CAUSE
3.3 LEVELING:
a. Place a carpenter's spirit level across the top of the fryer and
level the unit both front-to-back and side-to-side. If the fryer
is not level, the unit may not function efficiently, the oil may
not drain properly for filtering and in a line-up it may not
match adjacent units.
b. Legs (Only):
1. If the floor is smooth and level, level the unit by using the
caster shims. Adjust to the high corner and measure with
the spirit level.
2. Adjust leg height with an adjustable or 1-1/16" (27mm)
open end wrench by turning the hex bullet on the bottom
of the leg. See figure 3-2 on page 7.
3. The hex bullet is for minor leg height adjustment only.
Do not adjust more than 1" (22mm).
4. When leveling the unit, the leg body should be held firmly to keep the leg from rotating while
turning the hex bullet foot to the required height.
c. Rigid Casters (Only):
1. Install the optional rigid casters on the fryer
rear channel only. Legs must be installed on
the front channel.
2. Do not use more than two metal shims per
caster.
3. There are no thread adjustments for the rigid
casters.
d. Swivel Casters (Only):
1. If optional swivel casters are used, the locking
swivel casters must be installed on the fryer
front channel. Lock casters prior to
operating the fryer.
WARNING!
INJURY TO THE OPERATOR.
Adjust leg height with an
adjustable wrench.

TWO METAL SHIMS PER
LEG/CASTER.
USING MORE THAN TWO
SHIMS PER LEG/CASTER
MAY CAUSE THE FRYER TO
