Assembly and Leveling
1.2.1 Leg/Caster Installation and Adjustment
Installing the legs and leveling the cooker is done using a 1/4" wrench and a large pair of water pump
pliers. The legs must be installed before connecting the cooker to the gas supply. The legs provide
the necessary height to meet sanitation requirements and assure adequate air supply to the burner.
Attach the legs to the cooker by performing the following procedures:
a.
Place a blanket, piece of cardboard, or some other material on the floor
behind the cooker.
b.
Place the cooker on its back. DO NOT pull on the flue vent. You can
damage the flue by pulling on it.
c.
Attach each leg/caster to the cooker with four 1/4-20 x 5/8" hex head
cap screws and lock washer/nut assemblies. These parts are supplied
with the cooker.
d.
Mount the screws from the inside of the cooker with the lock washer
and nut on the outside of the cooker as shown in the adjoining
illustration.
e.
When all four legs/casters are secured, place the cooker in the upright
position. Be careful not to put too much weight on individual legs/
casters when standing the cooker upright.
f.
On fryers with casters, move the fryer to the desired location and lock
the wheels using the locking devices on the top of the casters.
g.
Adjust the height and level the cooker by adjusting the leveling devices
on the legs with water pump pliers.
