Hot Plates
IMPORTANT: The flue must be installed prior to
start-up.
Pilot Burner Adjustment
Each burner in the hot plate is equipped with a pilot.
The burner pilot is ignited by the piezo ignitor located
behind the front door.
The pilot has been adjusted at the factory; however, it may
require adjustments once installed. The pilot adjusting
valve is located under each burner valve.
Open the bottom door and use a long thin straight
blade screwdriver to adjust the valve. Refer to Flame
Size Chart.
Burner Operation
The burner will light automatically from the pilot. Turn
the valve to the full “ON” position. Once the flame has
ignited, adjust the valve to the desired setting.
Fryers
Before Operating the Fryer
1. Before leaving the factory, the fryer was tested and
the thermostat calibrated with oil in the fry tank;
therefore, it is necessary to clean the fry tank before
filling with frying compound. Use detergent or
other cleaning agents, with hot water. Thoroughly
rinse and dry fry tank.
2. BEFORE LIGHTING THE PILOT, fill the
fry tank. NEVER OPERATE THE PILOT OR
BURNER WITH AN EMPTY FRY TANK. It
only takes a few minutes to completely ruin a fry
tank and void the warranty.
3. WARNING: When fryers are in use, fryer restraint
chains/cables must be installed in order to prevent
the fryer from tipping and splashing hot liquid. Hot
shortening causes severe burns. Never attempt to
move a fryer when the frypot is full. Drain frypot
completely before moving fryer.
ADJUSTMENTS Continued
Pilot Burner Adjustment
1. Turn thermostat knob to lowest position.
2. Depress and turn automatic gas valve knob to
“OFF” position. Caution: Wait 5 minutes before
lighting or relighting pilot.
3. Turn automatic gas valve knob to “Pilot” position.
4. Push knob in, light pilot, and continue to hold
knob in for about 60 seconds after pilot light is lit.
5. Adjust pilot flame to 3/4” (19 mm).
6. If pilot does not continue to burn after releasing
button, repeat above procedure or…
7. Have a qualified Serviceman check the system. DO
NOT ALLOW ANYONE ELSE TO ATTEMPT
REPAIRS.
To Operate Main Burner
1. If liquid frying compound is used, the main burner
may be turned on.
2. To ignite burner, turn automatic gas valve
counterclockwise to the “ON” position.
3. If a Hydrogenated (SOLID) frying compound is
used, pack the tank with compound and turn the
main burner on for approximately five seconds and
turn it off for approximately ten seconds. Repeat
until compound is melted. If any smoke is seen
during the process, the heating action is being
carried out too fast and the frying compound is
being scorched as well as possibly damaging the fry
tank.
Shutdown Instructions
To shut down fryer for a short period, turn automatic
gas valve knob to the “PILOT” position.
For complete shutdown, turn automatic gas valve knob
clockwise to “PILOT” position, depress the knob, turn
slightly clockwise, release, and continue to turn clockwise
to “OFF”.
