    Move the fryer to the desired location and lock the wheels using the locking devices on the sides of the casters. Once the unit is in place, check and readjust the levelness as necessary. 1.3.2 Gas Connection Your fryer will give you peak performance when the gas supply line is of sufficient size to provide the correct gas flow.
  • Page 12: Quick Disconnect Gas Connection

    1.3.2.3 Quick Disconnect Gas Connection Gas fryers equipped with casters must be installed with connectors that comply with the Standard for Connectors for Movable Gas Appliances, ANSI Z21.69-1987, and Addenda Z21.69A-1989. This connection should include a quick disconnect device that complies with the Standard for Quick Disconnect Devices for Use With Gas Fuel, ANSI Z21.41-1989.
  • Page 13: Electrical System With Ufm Filter System

    The fryer must be grounded in accordance with local code; if there is not a local code, comply with NECANSI/NFPANo. 70-1990. It is advised that this power supply be plugged into a wall receptacle that is controlled by the ventilation control. This will prevent the fryer from being operated without the ventilator 1.3.3.1 Electrical System with UFM Filter System The fryer has one power supply for the controls and the filter module.
  • Page 14: Initial Adjustments

    Excessive ventilation causes drafts, which will interfere with the proper operation of the pilot and the burner. Leave at least 18 inches of open space between the fryer's flue vent opening and the intake of the exhaust hood. In the event of an oil fire in the fryer, use ONLY a dry chemical extinguisher. The extinguisher should be a B/C or A/B/C type extinguisher that contains sodium bicarbonate or potassium bicarbonate.
  • Page 15: Burner Ignition Systems

    1.4.2 Burner Ignition Systems The unit has a manual (standing flame) pilot ignition system. The pilot light must be lit manually before fryer operation. CAUTION Before going any further, fill the fryer with WATER. Water is used for the installation adjustments because the temperature will never exceed 212°F (100°C) thereby allowing plenty of adjustment time.
  • Page 16: Inside View Of Fryer

    Turn the fryer OFF/ON switch (4) to the ON position. The computer display will change from OFF to MELT (the display may indicate a different condition of the fryer depending on fryer temperature). The main burner (5) will light and be controlled by the computer. The pilot burner will remain lit regardless of the switch position or computer operation.
  • Page 17: Pilot Flame Adjustment

    1.4.3 Pilot Flame Adjustment The pilot flame should be adjusted to produce the proper millivolt output from the pilot sensing device. Millivolt output for the thermopile should be between 300 and 500 millivolts. Figure 1-3 shows the pilot assembly with examples of the incorrect and correct pilot size. Example A illustrates a pilot flame size that is too small to produce sufficient millivolt output.
  • Page 18 Light the pilot. Remove the pilot flame adjustment cover. Turning the flame adjusting screw clockwise lowers the flame and the millivolt output. Turning the screw counterclockwise increases flame size and millivolt output. Rotate the screw in the direction to achieve a reading of 400 ±50 mv for thermopiles. NOTE Allow 3 to 5 minutes between flame adjustments to allow the reading to settle.
  • Page 19: Main Burner System

    1.4.4 Main Burner System For the burners to work the gas supply valve must be open and the main power switch must be on. The main burner receives gas from the main gas supply through the thermostatically controlled valve. When the computer calls for flame the gas control valve opens and the pilot light ignites the burners.
  • Page 20: Gas Line Requirements

    1.4.4.1 Gas Line Requirements A properly installed gas supply system will deliver 7.0 ±2.0" w.c. natural gas (11.0 ±2.0" w.c. LP) to all appliances connected to the line, operating at full demand. 1.4.4.2 Burner Adjustment The burners must be adjusted to deliver optimum flame. Adjust the burner flame using the following procedure.
  • Page 21: Initial Cleaning

    Perform the cleaning as described below. Fill the tank with water and add one packet of Pitco fryer cleaner or a mild detergent. Turn the fryer on and allow the computer to bring the water to a boil automatically. Allow the fryer to heat for 15 minutes.
  • Page 22: Chapter 2: Operating Instructions

    CHAPTER OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS This chapter describes how to operate your fryer to obtain the best performance. Included in this chapter are filling, operating, and cleaning instructions for gas fryers. 2.1 FILLING THE FRYER Both liquid and solid shortening can be used in the fryer, but liquid is preferred. If solid shortening is used, it is recommended that you use the solid melt cycle feature built into the computer to melt the shortening.
  • Page 23: Fryer Operating Instructions

    2.2 FRYER OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Always observe the safety precautions described in the front of this manual before operating this fryer.

Detailed programming instructions are provided later in this chapter in section 2.3.
  • Page 24: Displaying Temperatures

    Melt L indicates that you have the liquid melt cycle programmed to run. Although you do not need to "melt" liquid shortening, it is a very good idea to heat up all shortening slowly. This will prolong the life of the shortening and lessen the thermal stress on the fryer tank. Melt S indicates that the solid shortening melt cycle has been programmed to run.
