21. Insert the burners (9) into the rails to ensure the rail spacing and alignment are correct. The
burner should slide freely into and out of the rails. The upper rail can be bent slightly to increase
or decrease tension on the burner, and the edges of the slot can be closed or opened slightly to
best fit the burner frame.
22. Carefully wrap a strip of burner insulation (8) tightly around the rear and sides of the burner
frame (9), with the glass-tape side of the strip on the outside. Do not use duct tape or adhesive
to secure the strip to the burner frame.
23. Align the burner to the burner rails while maintaining tension on the insulation strip. Insert the
burner at a slight angle and begin pushing the burner slowly into the rails until it contacts the
rear combustion chamber. The fit should be snug, but not excessively tight.
24. Verify that the burners are flush with the front edge of the burner rails. Remove the excess
burner insulation by cutting with a knife or diagonal pliers. Do not try to tear the insulation!
25. Insert the upper front insulation (10) into its retainer (11), making sure that the holes in each
piece are aligned with one another. Install the assembly with the insulation side toward the
frypot and secure with ¼-20 washer-nuts. Do not over tighten.
26. Place a washer on each of the four lower studs on the front of the frypot. Install the lower inner
front insulation (12) with the rectangular openings toward the drain valve nipple. Install the
lower inner front insulation retainer(s) (13).
NOTE: Full vat units have a two-piece insulation retainer. Dual vat units have a one-piece
retainer.
27. If necessary, replace the sight-glasses and insulation (14).
28. Place one washer and one 1.888-inch spacer (15) on each stud.
NOTE: There are three different sizes of spacers. Verify the size to ensure the correct spacers
are installed.
29. Insert the front lower insulation (16) into the front lower insulation retainer(s) (17) and install
assembly on frypot. Secure with ¼-20 washer-nuts. If frypot uses two retainers, connect them
together with two ¼” self-tapping screws.
NOTE: Full vat units have a two-piece insulation retainer and two pieces of insulation. Dual
vat units have one-piece components.
30. Return to the rear of the frypot and fully tighten all washer-nuts.
31. Remove and replace the plenum gaskets (18).
32. Place a 0.938-inch spacer (19) on the plenum-mounting studs, and mount the plenum (20). En-
sure the gaskets are clear of the burner tubes by pulling the plenum back slightly. Place a washer
on each stud and secure plenum with ¼-20 locknuts.
