or death. Read the installation, operating and maintenance instructions thoroughly before

TO THE PURCHASER
Post in a prominent location the instructions to be followed in the event that an operator smells gas. Obtain this
information from your local gas supplier.
WARNING
The fryer is equipped with an oil proof, electrical supply cord with a three prong safety plug. This is to protect
operators from electrical shock hazard in the event of an equipment malfunction. DO NOT cut or remove the
grounding (third) prong from this plug.
WARNING
There is an open flame inside the fryer. The unit may get hot enough to set near by materials on fire. Keep the
area around the fryer free from combustibles.
WARNING
DO NOT supply the fryer with a gas that is not indicated on the data plate. If you need to convert the fryer to
another type of fuel, contact your dealer.
WARNING
DO NOT use an open flame to check for gas leaks!
WARNING
Wait 5 minutes before attempting to relight the pilot to allow for any gas in the fryer to dissipate.
WARNING
Never melt blocks of shortening on top of the burner tubes. This will cause a fire, and void your warranty.
WARNING
Water and shortening DO NOT mix. Keep liquids away from hot shortening. Dropping liquid frozen food into the
hot shortening will cause violent boiling.
WARNING
Ensure that the fryer can get enough air to keep the flame burning correctly. If the flame is starved for air, it can
give off a dangerous carbon Monoxide gas. Carbon monoxide is a clear odorless gas that can cause suffocation.

A cooker equipped with casters and a flexible gas line, must be connected to the gas supply with a quick
disconnect device. This quick disconnect must comply with ANSI Z24.41. To limit the movement of the cooker
without depending on the connector or quick disconnect, a restraining cable must also be installed.
