Keating Of Chicago Gas Fryer Fryer User Manual


 
3
Counter model and floor model fryers must be
restrained to prevent tipping when installed in order
to avoid splashing, spilling, etc. of hot liquid. The
restraining method may be a manner of installation or
by separate means.
LEVELING
The fryer will operate at its highest efficiency when
properly leveled. Place a level on fryer vessel from side
to side. For fryers on legs, the bottom foot of the leg is
adjustable. Turn counter clockwise to decrease height
or clockwise to increase height until level. For fryers on
casters, the casters are adjustable by loosening the
jam nut and turning the caster in or out. When the
desired level is reached, tighten the jam nut.
Adjustments of more than 3/4” are not recommended
on any caster. The same procedure should be followed
to level the fryer from front to back.
