NEVER supply the fryer with a gas that is not indi-
cated on the data plate. Using the incouect gas type
will cause improper operation. If you need to convert
the fryer to another type of fuel, contact your dealer.
Fuel I;):BJ:
Each fryer is equipped to work with one type of fuel.
Each Turbofry 2<XX> is set at the factory and should need
no further adjustments. Refer to the data plate, located
on the inside of the door, for the gas specifications of the
machine you have. Attach a water manometer to the pres-
sure port on the manual gas valve shown.
TAP
Check that the INPUT SUPPLY PRESSURE is 5 - 13"
WC for Natural Gas and 10 - 13" WC for LP gas.
WARNING
00 NOT use an open flame to check for gas leaks!
Gas Line Connection:
Connect the fryer to the gas supply line with a connector
that complies with the Standard for Connectors for Mov-
able Gas Appliances (ANSI Z2l.69-1987). Connect the
gas line to the fryer using a pipe joint sealant that is resis-
tant to Liquefied Petroleum. If the fryer was disconnected
during the fuel line testing, use a solution of soap and
water to leak test the new connection. It is advised that
the gas supply to the fryer be connected to the ventilation
system in such a way as to prevent the fryer from being
operated without the ventilator on.
CAUTION
NEVER use an adaptor to make a smaller gas supply
line fit the cooker connection. This will not allow suffi-
cient gas flow for optimum burner operation, resulting
in poor cooker performance.
The Turbofry 2000 is supplied with casters and must be
installed with a gas connector that comply with the Stan-
dard for Connectors for Movable Gas Appliances, ANSI
Z21.69-1987, and Addenda Z21.69A-1989. This connec-
tion should include a quick disconnect device that com-
plies with the Standard for Quick Disconnect Devices
for Use With Gas Fuel, ANSI Z21.41-1989.

The fuel supply system must be tested before the fryer is
used. If the fuel line is going to be tested at a pressure
greater than (»1/2 PSI (3.45 kPa), make sure that the
fryer is disconnected from the fuel line. If the fuel line is
to be tested at a pressure equal to or less than (s) l/2 PSI
(3.45 kPa), the fryer can be connected but the unit's gas
valve must be shut. Test all gas line connections for leaks
with a solution of soap and water when pressure is ap-
plied.
The electrical service used by the fryer must comply with
local codes. If there are no local codes that apply, refer to
the National Electrical Code (NEC) to install the service.
In Canada refer to CSA Standard C22.1 and local codes.
