1 inch, and then further adjust the legs, ensuring the fryer is level and at the proper height in the
exhaust hood. Frymaster recommends that the minimum distance from the flue outlet to the
bottom edge of the filter be 24 in. (600 mm).
For fryers equipped with casters, there are no built-in leveling devices. The floor where the fryer
is to be installed must be level.

proper type of gas before connecting the fryer quick-disconnect device or piping from the gas
supply line.
5. Verify that the minimum and maximum gas supply pressures for the type of gas to be used are in
accordance with the table below.
If the incoming gas pressure is in excess of ½" PSI (3.45 kPa/35 mbar), a step-down
regulator will be required.

Connection to Gas Line

Before connecting new pipe to this appliance, the pipe must be blown out
thoroughly to remove all foreign material. Foreign material in the burner and gas
controls will cause improper and dangerous operation.
When pressure-testing incoming gas supply lines, disconnect the fryer from the gas
line if the test pressure will be ½ PSIG (3.45 kPa, 13.84 inches W.C.) or greater to
avoid damage to the fryer's gas tubes and gas valve(s).
