D. PLUMBING INSTALLATION
1. The installation of this fryer must conform to local codes. In the absence of local codes, the
installation of this fryer must conform with the National Fuel Gas Code (ANSI Z223.1).
In Canada, the National Gas Installation Code (CAN/CGAB149.2) is applicable.
2. In any instance where gas supply pressure is in excess
of 15” water pressure (1/2 psi or 3.45kP), the fryer must
be isolated from the supply piping by closing its two
individual manual shut-off valves (item 20).
IMPORTANT: Failure to isolate the fryer from excessive
pressure will damage the gas valves and allow raw gas
to leak into the room.

C. EQUIPMENT SET-UP
1. A single WFGA-60FS gas-fired fryer requires a minimum of 700 cubic feet per hour (12 CFM)
make-up air. The ventilation for the kitchen must have sufficient capacity to prevent a
negative-pressure condition. DO NOT obstruct or restrict ventilation and make-up air required
to support combustion.
2. Setup the FRYER only on a firm, level surface. Clearances from all combustible and non-
combustible construction is 1” minimum. The area around the fryer must be kept clear of
combustibles.
3. LEVELING: Verify that the fryer sits firmly ON BOTH CASTERS AND ON BOTH LEGS.
With a spirit level, check that the fryer is level front-to-back and side-to-side. With the
adjustable legs, adjust as required to level the fryer.
4. DO NOT obstruct the flow of the two exhaust flues (item 14) at the top rear of the fryer. It is
especially critical that gas supply piping and electrical supply cord and/or receptacle be routed
away from the path of the hot combustion fumes.
5. This fryer must be installed and operated under a ventilation hood conforming to all applicable
local codes. Combustion fumes must be vented in accordance with local codes.
6. Cooking and cleaning functions require unobstructed access. The frypot, control panel and
front access panel must be maintained free from obstructions. The rear access panel must be
accessible for maintenance.
