1. It is essential that the gas supply is correct for the appliance to be installed and that adequate
supply pressure and volume are available. The following checks should therefore be made before
installation:-
a. The Gas Type the appliance has been supplied for is shown
on the coloured stickers located above the gas connection and
next to the rating plate. Check that this is correct for the gas
supply the appliance is being installed for. The gas conversion
procedure is detailed in this manual.
b. Supply Pressure required for this appliance is shown in the
'Specifications' section of this manual. Check the gas supply
to ensure that adequate supply pressure exists.
c. Input Rate of this appliance is also stated on the Rating Plate
located inside the door and in the 'Specifications' section of
this manual. The input rate should be checked against the
available gas supply line capacity. Particular note should
be taken if the appliance is being added to an existing
installation.
NOTE: It is important that adequately sized piping runs directly to the connection joint on the
appliance, with as few tees and elbows as possible to give maximum supply volume.
2. A suitable joining compound which resists the breakdown action of LPG must be used on every gas
line connection, unless compression fittings are used.

Installation
NOTE: A Manual Isolation Valve must be fitted to the individual appliance supply line.
3. Correctly locate the appliance into its final operating position and using a spirit level, adjust the legs
so that the unit is level and at the correct height.
4. Connect the gas supply to the appliance.
5. Check gas operating pressure is as shown in the ‘Specifications’ section. If the pressure is incorrect,
adjust the pressure by adjusting the regulator screw of the gas control valve as shown in the ‘Gas
Conversion and Specifications’ section.
6. Check all gas connections for leakages using soapy water or other gas detecting equipment.
NOTE: The operating pressure is to be measured at the lower
test point (Out) on the gas control valve located behind
the access door and through the access hole in the
enamelled control panel with all burners operating at the
'High Flame' setting.
7. Turn ‘OFF’ the mains gas supply and bleed the gas out of the
appliance gas lines.
8. Turn ‘ON’ the gas supply and the appliance.
9. Verify the operating pressure remains correct (Re-adjust if
required, using the operating pressure adjusting screw as shown in
the ‘Gas Conversion and Specifications’ section).
10. Check the pilot flame size. (Re-adjust if required, using the pilot
burner adjusting screw as shown in the ‘Gas Conversion and
Specifications’ section).
8. Turn ‘ON’ to ‘Full’ settings all other gas appliances / equipment
supplied from the same gas supply line and verify the operating
pressure remains unaffected by the maximum gas supply demand.
NOTE: Insufficient gas supply line capacity, indicated by the operating pressure drop during
the maximum gas supply demand, is NOT ACCEPTABLE and may invalidate the
manufacturers warranty for this appliance.
Electrical Connection
NOTE: ALL ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS MUST ONLY BE CARRIED OUT BY AN AUTHORISED
PERSON.
Each fryer should be connected to an adequately protected power supply and isolation switch mounted
