MODEL #TWT WORKTABLE ASSEMBLY
Required Tools: Adjustable Wrench
This unit is designed to be used as a worktable for the preparation of turkeys for frying and for
draining afterwards. It is not intended for any other use. It is to be used only with Deep Fryer
Turkey Packages. This worktable assembly is NOT for use with Model #3018.
1. Stand worktable and cooker
side by side, as in the
illustration, on a level, sturdy,
non-combustible surface.
2. Hold the side of the worktable
with the brackets next to the
cooker. Line up one pair of the
holes in a bracket so that one
hole is above the cooker ring
and one is below. Choose to
use the pair of holes which will
allow the worktable to be level.
Some models of cookers will
use the top sets of holes in the
brackets, while some models
work best with the lower sets
of holes. Make sure that the
work surface will be flat when
assembly is complete.
3. Slide the U-bolts around the
top ring of the cooker and
through the holes in one of the
brackets. Do the same for the
other bracket.

CONNECTION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Check that your 20 lb. LP gas cylinder is not over-filled. The maximum weight of a properly filled
cylinder is approximately 38 lbs.
2. Verify that the cylinder valve has the proper connection for a Type 1 Connection.
3. Check that your hose assembly is set to not allow gas flow. If you have an adjustable regulator,
turn the regulator control counterclockwise until it stops. This is the OFF position. If you have a
non-adjustable regulator with manual valve(s), turn the manual valve(s) clockwise until it stops.
This is the OFF position.
4. Attach the regulator to the cylinder valve by turning the Type 1 fitting clockwise. Hand tighten with
the regulator positioned upright. Refer to the appropriate assembly diagram for the appliance,
pages 9-11, Figure 1-4.
5. Perform the Leak Test:
LEAK TEST
Before lighting the appliance, a thorough leak test must be satisfactorily completed using a
non-ammonia soapy water solution (50% non-ammonia soap and 50% water). This is to be
applied with a small brush to all gas joints after the cylinder valve is opened (no more than 1/2
turn). If bubbles are seen, indicating a leak, turn off the cylinder and tighten the leaking connection
until a further leak test shows no leaks.
If tightening the connection does not stop the leak, call Metal Fusion, Inc. [phone], for
assistance.
DO NOT USE UNTIL REPAIRS ARE MADE
6. Before lighting the cooker, check that the venturi tube is free of obstruction and that the orifice is
properly threaded into the venturi tube as per instructions in Figure 1,2, 3, or 4 pages 9-11. Both
situations must be corrected if necessary before lighting to prevent flashback.
