1.5 Adjusting Burner Ceramic Target Spacing and Alignment
DANGER
Drain the frypot or remove the handle from the drain valve before proceeding further.
Proper spacing of the top edge of the burner ceramic targets is ¾ inch (13 mm) from the frypot side.
To adjust target spacing, bend the brackets to which they are attached away or toward the frypot to
the proper distance. (A length of board of the proper thickness is useful as a gauge to verify spacing
and alignment.)
3/4-inch
There should be about 3/4-inch spacing between the
top edge of the targets and the side of the frypot.
