INSTALLATION:

Installation Clearances
The fryer needs clearance around it for proper operation. Adequate clearances allow for servicing and proper burner
operation. The clearances shown below are for cooker installation in combustible and non-combustible construc
tion.

VENTILATION AND FIRE SAFETY SYSTEMS
Your new fryer must have proper ventilation to function safely and properly. Exhaust gas temperatures can reach as high as 100
(538 C). Therefore, it is very important to install a fire safety system. Your ventilation system should be designed to allow for
0
easy cleaning. Frequent cleaning of the ventilation system and the fryer will reduce the chances of fire.
Excessive ventilation causes drafts, which will interfere with the proper operation of the pilot and the burner. Leave at least
18 inches (45.72CM) of open space between the fryer's flue vent opening and the intake of the exhaust hood.
Ensure that your ventilation system does not cause a down draft at the fryer's flue opening. Down
drafts will not allow the fryer to exhaust properly and will cause overheating which may cause
permanent damage. Damage caused by down drafts will not be covered under equipment
warranty. NEVER allow anything to obstruct the flow of combustibles or ventilation exiting from
the fryer flue. DO NOT put anything on top of the flue area.
NEVER connect the blower directly to the flue openings. The direct flow of air will cause poor
temperature recovery, poor ignition, inefficient operation of the fryer, and could extinguish the
pilot.

GAS CONNECTION:

NEVER supply the fryer with a gas that is not indica ted on the data plate, located on the inside of the door. To
ensure peak performance and correct combustion Pitco Fryers must be supplied with an amount of Fuel Gas
sufficient to meet the rating requirements shown on the data plate, found on the inside of the door . All gas connec-
tions must be made by a Certified Gas Service Technician. The connection must fulfill local and national require-
ments.

FUEL LINE TESTING:

Since the internal gas valve of the Pitco Fryer is rated at 50 mbar maximum pressure, it is imperative that no
testinmg be done at a pressure greater than this. If it is necessary to test at a pressure greater than this, the fryer
should be isolated from the gas line so that damage to the gas valve does not occur.

INITIAL ASSEMBLY:

Remove the two (2) screws that mount the rear of the tank to the cabinet. Place the Flue Heat Deflector in place with
the bend facing forward. Replace the tank mounting screws, through the Flue Heat Deflector into the tank. In some
cases the fryers legs may need to be installed.

INITIAL ADJUSTMENTS:

Thermocouple: The pilot is set at the factory and requires NO further adjustment.
Gas Pressure (Only when Governors are installed.): The gas pressure should be checked to ensure that the manifold
pressure reads the same pressure that is indicated on the data plate, loca ted on the inside cover of the door. If not it
must be adjusted.
Regulating Thermostats: These are preset at the factory and DO NOT need further adjustment. Do NOT attempt to
