2.4 Gas Connections
The gas supply (service) line must be the same size or greater than the inlet line of the appliance.
ASBER appliances use a ¾”NPT inlet.
Pipe joint compound must be resistive to Natural or LP gas.
For equipment using propane gas do not install supply lines with a diameter less than ½ under any
circumstances.
All connections must be tested with a soapy water solution before lighting any pilots.
The appliance shall be connected to the fuel gas for which it was designed. No attempt shall be made to
convert the appliance from the gas specified on the rating plate for use with a different gas without
consulting the installation instructions, the serving gas supplier, or the appliance manufacturer for
complete instructions.
2.4.1 MANUAL SHUT OFF VALVE
This installer supplied valve must be in the gas service line ahead of the appliance regulator in
the gas stream and in a position accessible in the event of an emergency.
2.4.2 PRESSURE REGULATOR
Commercial cooking equipment must have a pressure regulator on the incoming service line for
safe and efficient operation; the gas pressure regulator supplied by ASBER must be installed at
the gas inlet of each piece of equipment.
The regulators supplied along with ASBER appliances, will have 3/4”inlet/outlet openings and
are adjusted at the factory for 5”WC (natural gas) or 10”WC (propane gas) depending on
customer’s ordering instructions.
Prior to connecting the regulator, check the incoming line pressure, as these regulators can only
withstand a maximum pressure of ½”PSI (14”WC). If the line pressure is beyond this limit, a
step down regulator will be required.
The arrow shown on the bottom of the regulator body shows the gas flow direction, it should
point downstream to the appliance. The BLUE air vent cap on the top is part of the regulator
and should not be removed.
Any adjustments to the regulator should be made by qualified service personnel only with the
proper equipment.
2.4.3 THIS APPLIANCE IS EQUIPPED FOR NATURAL GAS.
This appliance is equipped with orifices sized (# 36) for operation with natural gas.
For conversion to LP (PROPANE) gas see instruction plate in the appliance. Gas conversion
must be performed by qualified or authorized personnel. Orifices (#52) necessary for LP
(PROPANE) and regulator for conversion are provided on accessory box.

MAINTENANCE
4.1 Cleaning
4.1 CLEANING
For continued performance efficiency and longevity of your Fryer it is essential to carry out a good
maintenance program.
4.1.1 DAILY
OPEN BURNERS / HOT PLATES
1. Remove all top grates.
2. Lift off the burners heads and venturies by raising the head slightly, sliding to the
rear and lifting upwards.
3. Wash off the above in hot soapy water.
4. Re-install parts in the reverse order.
GRIDDLES
1. Scrape with a nylon griddle scraper to remove the cooked spills.
When absolutely necessary use a fine grained stone to scrape.
2. Wipe away any griddle stone dust and food particles with burlap.
3. Wash with hot, soapy water, and then rinse with vinegar and water.
4. Rinse again with clear water.
5. Re-oil with shortening or liquid frying compound.
6. DO NOT FLOOD A HOT GRIDDLE WITH COLD WATER. This could cause
warping and griddle plate to crack.
BROILER
1. Remove large pieces of food residue and carefully scrape spillovers from the
drip tray below the cooking surface.
2. Wash all exterior and interior surfaces with hot soapy water solution. Do not use
any abrasives on any portion of the stainless or painted surfaces.
3. Cast iron grates should be scraped frequently with a wire brush and periodically
soaked in hot water solution to remove grease particles.
Never expose the grates to excessive heat for the purpose of burning excess
grease. This practice could shorten the useful life of the grates.
4.1.2 STAINLESS STEEL PARTS
Do not use steel wool, abrasive cloths, cleansers or powders to clean stainless steel surfaces.
All stainless steel parts should be wiped regularly with hot soapy water during the day and a
stainless steel liquid cleaner at the end of the day. To remove encrusted materials, soak in hot
water to loosen the material, and then use a wood or nylon scraper. NOT USE a metal knife,
spatula, or any other metal tool to scrape stainless steel. Scratches are almost impossible to
remove.
