2.2 Caster/Leg Installation
DANGER
DO NOT install this appliance without legs or casters.
Depending upon the specific configuration ordered, the fryer might have been shipped without
installed casters or legs. If casters or legs are installed, you may skip this section and proceed to
Section 2.3, Pre-Connection Preparations.
If your fryer requires the installation of casters/legs, install them in accordance with the
instructions included in your accessory package.
2.3 Pre-Connection Preparations
DANGER
Do not connect this appliance to the gas supply before completing each step in this
section.
After the fryer has been positioned under the fry station exhaust hood, ensure the following has been
accomplished:
1. Adequate means must be provided to limit the movement of fryers without depending upon the
gas line connections. If a flexible gas hose is used, a restraining cable must be connected at all
times when the fryer is in use. The restraining cable and installation instructions are packed with
the flexible hose in the accessories box that was shipped with your unit.
2. Single unit fryers must be stabilized by installing restraining chains on fryers equipped with
casters or anchor straps on fryers equipped with legs. Follow the instructions shipped with the
casters/legs to properly install the chains or straps.
DANGER
Do not attach an apron drain board to a single fryer. The fryer may become
unstable, tip over, and cause injury. The appliance area must be kept free and clear
of combustible materials at all times.
Level fryers equipped with legs by screwing out the legs approximately 1 inch, and then adjust them
so that 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 inches (600 mm) when
the appliance consumes more than 120,000 BTU per hour.
3. For fryers equipped with casters, there are no built-in leveling devices. The floor where the fryer
is to be installed must be level.
