TESTING THE GAS SUPPLY PIPING SYSTEM
When test pressures exceed 1 / psig (3.45 kPa), the fryer and its individual shutoff valve must be
2
disconnected from the gas supply piping system.
1
When test pressures are / psig (3.45 kPa) or less, the fryer must be isolated from the gas supply piping
2
system by closing its individual shutoff valve.
LEVELING THE FRYER
Once gas connections have been made, place a carpenter's level on top of the fryer. Adjust the legs
to ensure that the fryer is level front-to-back and side-to-side in the final installed position.
FLUE CONNECTIONS
The fryer must be located under a hood with an adequate connection to an exhaust duct and with a
6" extension beyond fryer sides.
Adequate ventilation must be provided and must comply with applicable portions of National Fire
Protection Association Standard #96, "Standard for the Removal of Vapor from Cooking Equipment"
(latest edition), and with local codes.
Clearance above fryer should be adequate for products of combustion to be removed efficiently. An
18" minimum clearance should be maintained between the flue vent and the filters of the hood venting
system.
Never make flue connections directly to the fryer.
Do not obstruct the flow of flue gases from the flue duct located on the rear of the fryer.
Adequate air should be provided in the kitchen to replace air taken out by the ventilating system. This
will prevent fryer function from being affected by a reduced atmospheric pressure.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS (FILTER-READY FRYERS ONLY)
WARNING: ELECTRICAL AND GROUNDING CONNECTIONS MUST COMPLY WITH THE
APPLICABLE PORTIONS OF THE NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE ANSI/NFPA-70 (LATEST EDITION)
AND/OR OTHER LOCAL ELECTRICAL CODES.
WARNING: APPLIANCES EQUIPPED WITH A FLEXIBLE ELECTRIC SUPPLY CORD ARE PROVIDED
WITH A THREE-PRONG GROUNDING PLUG. IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT THIS PLUG B E CONNECTED
INTO A PROPERLY GROUNDED THREE-PRONG RECEPTACLE. IF THE RECEPTACLE IS NOT
THE PROPER GROUNDING TYPE, CONTACT AN ELECTRICIAN. DO NOT REMOVE THE
GROUNDING PRONG FROM THIS PLUG.
The TK35, TK45, and TK65 filter-ready fryers are equipped with a 115 volt/60 Hz./1 Phase cord and
plug which requires only that it be plugged into a properly grounded 120 volt receptacle.
Do not connect fryer to electrical supply until after gas connections have been made.
