SECTION 2. INSTALLATION
This section provides the installation and unpacking instructions
for the Henny Penny Evolution Elite®fryer.
Installation of this unit should be performed only by a
 qualiedservicetechnician.
Do not puncture the fryer with any objects such as
drills or screws as component damage or electrical
shock could result.
Any shipping damage should be noted in the presence of
the delivery agent and signed prior to his or her departure.
1. Cut and remove the metal bands from the carton.
2. Remove carton lid and lift the main carton off the fryer.
3. Remove corner packing supports (4).
4. Cutthestretchlmfromaroundthecarrier/rackboxand

The proper location of the fryer is very important for operation,
speed, and convenience. The location of the open fryer should
allow clearances for servicing and proper operation. Choose a
location which will provide easy loading and unloading with-
outinterferingwiththenalassemblyoffoodorders.Opera-
torshavefoundthatfryingfromrawtonish,andholdingthe
product in warmers provides fast continuous service. Keep
in mind, the best efciencywillbeobtainedbyastraightline
operation,i.e.rawinonesideandnishedouttheotherside.
Order assembly can be moved away with only a slight loss of
efciency.
 Toavoidreandruinedsupplies,theareaunderthe
fryer should not be used to store supplies.
To prevent severe burns from splashing hot oil,
position and install fryer to prevent tipping or
movement. Restraining ties may be used for
stabilization.
For proper operation, the open fryer should be level from
side-to-sideandfronttoback.Usingalevelplacedontheat
areasaroundthevatcollar,onthemiddlewell,andthenadjust
the casters until the unit is level.

The fryer should be located with provision for venting into
an adequate exhaust hood or ventilation system. This is es-
sentialtopermitefcientremovalofthesteamexhaustand
frying odors. Special precaution must be taken in designing an
exhaust canopy to avoid interference with the operation of the
fryer.Werecommendyouconsultalocalventilationorheating
company to help in designing an adequate system.
Ventilation must conform to local, state, and national codes.
 Consultyourlocalredepartmentorbuildingauthorities.
Check the data plate, mounted on the inside of the doors, to
determine the correct power supply.
To avoid electrical shock, do not disconnect the ground
(earth) plug. This fryer must be adequately and safely
grounded (earthed). Refer to local electrical codes for cor-
rect grounding (earthing) procedures or in absence of local
codes, with The National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No.
70-(the current edition). In Canada, all electrical connec-
tions are to be made in accordance with CSA C22.2, Cana-
dian Electrical Code Part 1, and/or local codes.
To avoid electrical shock, this appliance must be equipped
with an external circuit breaker which will disconnect all
ungrounded (unearthed) conductors. The main power
switch on this appliance does not disconnect all line
conductors.
(FOR EQUIPMENT WITH CE MARK ONLY!)
To prevent electric shock hazard, this appliance must be
bonded to other appliances or touchable metal surfaces
in close proximity to this appliance with an equipotential
bonding conductor. This appliance is equipped with an
equipotential lug for this purpose. The equipotential lug is
marked with the following symbol.

An all pole, separate disconnect switch, with proper capacity
fuses or breakers must be installed at a convenient location
between the fryer and the power source, and must be installed
according to national and local codes. It should be an insulated
copper conductor rated for 600 volts and 90° C. For runs
longer than 50 feet (15.24 m), use the next larger wire size. CE
units require a minimum wire size of 6 mm to be wired to the
terminal block.
It is recommended that a 30 mA rated protective device such
as a residual current circuit breaker (RCCB), or ground fault
circuit interrupter (GFCI), be used on the fryer circuit.
Permanently connected electric fryers with casters must be
installedwithexibleconduitandacablerestraint,whenin-
stalled in the United States. See illustration at left. Holes are
available in the rear fryer frame for securing the cable restraint
to the fryer. The cable restraint does not prevent the fryer from
tipping.
Each vat has it’s own power cord assembly, and uses either
NEMA 15-50 Straight Plug or NEMA 15-60P.
Thesupplypowercordsshallbeoil-resistant,sheathedexible
cable, no lighter than ordinary polychloroprene or other equiva-
lent synthetic elastomer-sheathed cord.

REQUIREMENTS
(Continued)
DRYWALL CONSTRUCTION
Secure I-bolt to a building stud. Do
not attach to drywall only. Preferred
installation is approximately six
inches to either side of service.
Cable restraint must be at least six
inches shorter than exible conduit.
