1.3 ASSEMBLY AND LEVELING
When you receive your fryer it is completely assembled with the possible exception of the legs (or
casters). In some cases, if you have purchased a multi-fryer unit, some simple assembly may be
required.
1.3.1 Leg/Caster Installation and Adjustment
Installing the legs and leveling the fryer is done with a 7/16" wrench, socket,
and a large pair of water pump pliers. The legs must be installed before
connecting the unit to the electric supply. The legs provide the necessary
height to meet sanitation requirements. Attach the legs by performing the
following procedure.
a. Lay the fryer on its side being careful not to damage the element
junction box by pulling on it. Protect the outside of the fryer with
cardboard or a drop cloth when laying it down.
b. Attach each leg/caster with the hex head cap screws supplied with
the fryer. Each leg/caster requires four 1/4-20 x 5/8" cap screws.
c. Mount the screws from the inside of the fryer with the nut on the
outside of the fryer. The nuts have lock washers attached to them,
therefore it is not necessary to use lock washers.
d. When all four legs/casters are mounted, stand the unit up being
careful not to put too much weight on any one leg/caster. Adjust
the height and level the fryer by turning the leveling devices on
the leg/caster with the water pump pliers.
e. On units with casters, move the fryer to the desired location and
lock the wheels using the locking devices on the sides of the
casters.

1.3.2 Assembling Multi Fryer Systems
If you purchased a multi-fryer unit it could be shipped in more than one piece. To assemble the unit
follow the instructions below:
a. Unpack the units and move them close together. Remove the front panels from the fryers.
b. There are three joining strips to be attached to the units to make the units into one system.
These strips are attached in the rear, front, and upper front. Use the screws supplied with
your system to attach the strips. Secure them tightly to each unit.
