Required airflow for the combustion air supply is 2m
1. Connect the quick-disconnect hose to the fryer quick-disconnect fitting under the front of the
fryer and to the building gas line.
NOTE: Some fryers are configured for a rigid connection to the gas supply line. These units are
connected to the gas supply line at the rear of the unit.
When using thread compound, use very small amounts on male threads only. Use a pipe
thread compound that is not affected by the chemical action of LP gases (Loctite™ PST56765
Sealant is one such compound). DO NOT apply compound to the first two threads. Doing so
may allow some of the compound to enter the gas stream, resulting in clogging of burner
orifices and/or the control valve.
2. Open the gas supply to the fryer and check all piping, fittings, and gas connections for leaks. A
soap solution should be used for this purpose.
3. Light the fryer following the procedures that are described in the "Lighting Instructions" found
in Chapter 3 of this manual.
"Dry-firing" your unit will cause damage to the frypot and can cause a fire.
Always ensure that cooking oil or water is in the frypot before firing your unit.
4. The burner manifold pressure should be checked at this time by the local gas company or an
authorized service agent. The tables on page 2-5 list the burner manifold gas pressures for the
various gas types that can be used with this equipment. Also verify the pressures, on the rating
plate, inside the fryer door
5. Check the programmed temperature thermostat setting by pressing the temperature button.
