LOCATION
2-4. LEVELING THE FRYER
2-5
The proper location of the fryer is very important for operation,
speed, and convenience. Choose a location which provides easy
loading and unloading without interfering with the final assembly of
food orders. Operators have found that frying from raw to finish,
and holding the product in warmer provides fast continuous service.
Landing or dumping tables should be provided next to at least one
side of the fryer. Keep in mind the best efficiency will be obtained
by a straight line operation, i.e. raw in one side and finish out the
other side. Order assembly can be moved away with only a slight
loss of efficiency. To properly service the fryer, 24 inches (61.0 cm)
of clearance is needed on all sides of the fryer. Access for servicing
can be attained by removing a side panel. Also, at least 6 inches
(15.24 cm) around the base of the unit is needed for proper air supply
to the combustion chamber.
To avoid a fire, install the fryer with minimum clearance
from all combustible and noncombustible materials,
6 inches (15.24 cm) from side and 6 inches (15.24 cm)
from back. If installed properly, the gas Fryer is designed
for operation on combustible floors and adjacent to
combustible walls.
To avoid fire and ruined supplies, the area under the
fryer should not be used to store supplies.
To prevent severe burns from splashing hot shortening,
position and install fryer to prevent tipping or move-
ment. Restraining ties may be used for stabilization.
For proper operation, the fryer must be level from side to side and
front to back. Using a level placed on the flat areas around the
frypot collar, adjust the leveling bolt or casters until the unit is level.
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE LEVELING
INSTRUCTIONS CAN RESULT IN SHORTENING
OVERFLOWING THE FRYPOT WHICH COULD
CAUSE SERIOUS BURNS, PERSONAL INJURY,
FIRE AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
