Burner Flame Check; Turning Off The Fryer - Brinkmann 815-3500 Owner's Manual

4. Insert paper match in match holder prior to striking. Strike and place match through lighting hole to
approximately 1/2" (2 to 3 cm) from the burner. We recommend the use of a long wooden match.
5. Slowly turn regulator control knob clockwise until burner lights.
6. If burner does NOT ignite immediately, turn the regulator control knob and cylinder valve to OFF, wait
5 minutes for gas to evacuate and repeat steps 1 through 4 until burner ignites.
7. If the burner does not light within the first few attempts, there is a problem with the gas supply. Turn
off the gas at the burner and cylinder. DO NOT attempt to operate the fryer until the problem is found
and corrected.
HOW TO REIGNITE BURNER:
It is recommended to place lid over cooking vessel before reigniting burner. Follow steps 1 through 4
above, to reignite burner. Use caution when lighting burner, hot oil from cooking vessel may have
splattered and run down the sides of the unit.

BURNER FLAME CHECK

Adjust flame height using regulator control
knob. Rotate air shutter to achieve mostly
blue flame. The air damper mounted on the
back of your burner helps to control the amount
of air that mixes with the LP gas. A blue flame
with little or no yellow flame provides the
best heat. Adjust the air damper until the
desired flame is achieved.
Air Hole
NOTE: Make sure the male fitting on the fryer is screwed into the air shutter and tightened securely. Do
not over-tighten as the air shutter needs to move freely in order to adjust air intake. Check the
attachment for proper connection every time propane tank is connected to fryer.

TURNING OFF THE FRYER:

1. Turn OFF the LP cylinder valve.
2. Turn regulator control knob to the OFF position.
NOTE: Turn off LP cylinder first to prevent gas from
being left in the system under pressure.
3. To disconnect valve regulator/hose assembly, turn the
large regulator coupling counter-clockwise by hand.
CAUTION!
• The LP cylinder valve should always be in the OFF
or closed position when the fryer is not in use.
