Hot shortening can cause severe burns. Avoid contact. Under all circumstances, oil

3.3 Gas Connections
A. The gas supply (service) line must be the same size or greater than the fryer inlet line. This
fryer is equipped with a 3/4" (19 mm) male inlet. The gas supply line must be sized to
accommodate all the gas-fired equipment that may be connected to that gas supply. Consult
your contractor, gas company, supplier, or other knowledgeable authorities.
All connections must be sealed with a joint compound suitable for the gas being
used, and all connections must be tested with a soapy solution before lighting any
B. Rigid Connections: Check any installer-supplied intake pipe(s) visually and clean threading
chips, or any other foreign matter before installing into a service line. If the intake pipes are
not clear of all foreign matter, the orifices will clog when gas pressure is applied. Seal pipe
joints with a sealant resistive to LP gas. When using thread compound on gas piping, use
very small amounts and only on male threads. Use a pipe thread compound that is not
affected by the chemical action of LP gases. DO NOT apply thread compound to the first
two pipe threads—doing so will cause clogging of the burner orifices and control valve.
