FRYMASTER FPHD65 SERIES GAS FRYERS

CHAPTER 3: INSTALLATION

3.1 Installing the Fryer

Decathlon 65 Series fryer systems are shipped in sections. The fryers are uncrated, removed from
pallets and assembled together. Important aspects during assembly include aligning and connecting
the drain system, oil return system, rinse-line system (where applicable), oil-return switch wiring
harness and fryer cabinets. Slight modifications to connecting hardware may be required when
assembling the system. The instructions below provide step-by-step instructions to assist the
installer in assembly.

either side of the center caster. Insert the
bolts and draw the fryer components
together, aligning the caster plate holes
with the mounting points. (View is from
bottom of fryer.)

1. Open the doors of the filtration fryer cabinet. Remove filter pan from the cabinet. Uncrate fryers and remove

the pallet supports. Install ramps and slowly roll the fryer(s) off the pallets. See Figure 1.

2. Remove covers over openings in the cabinet to access the oil return and drain plumbing as well as safety drain

wiring also in the rear opening.

3. Remove the lower back from the two-vat unit and to gain access to the oil return line.
4. Remove the right-side door from the larger unit, which allows access to the drain manifold.
5. With the fryer near its installation site, roll the two pieces to within a few inches of each other. Do not connect

the fryers to power.

6. Connect the color-coded drain wiring with the attached connector. The wiring is accessible in the oil return

opening at the rear of the fryer. See Figure 3.

7. Position the flex return line and roll the units closer together. The flex hose should align with the threaded

nipple.

8. Connect the flex line and tighten.
