order:
once the nozzles have been changed, check that the gas
pressure, both in the valve output and input, is as given in the
TECHNICAL DATA table. To do this, remove the screws on the
valve’s (1) pressure tap (11), insert a rubber pipe connected to a
gauge and check pressure. If the inlet supply pressure is
different to that specified, find the cause and correct it.
Adjusting the pilot burner:
this burner needs no adjusting. If you find it does need adjusting,
act on the PILOT screw of the safety valve (1), see fig. 2
Regulating the minimum flame –burner:
The valve has a on/off function so needs no adjusting.

6. USER INSTRUCTIONS
6.1 LIGHTING THE FRYER BURNERS
Lighting the pilot flame:
Make certain that the thermostatic safety valve knob is in the CLOSED
position ( symbol). Press the push button right down and holding
it pressed, press the piezoelectric lighter push button at the same time.
The pilot flame lights automatically.
Check the flame is lit through the holes (21) on the appliance panel.
Keep the valve push button (24) pressed for 10-15 seconds in order to
heat the thermocouple and then let it go.
Repeat this operation if the burner goes out.
Lighting the burners and adjusting the temperature:
Once the pilot flame is lit, turn the thermostatic safety valve (6) knob
(22) into the position minimum 1 to maximum 8 (the other numbers
represent the intermediate temperatures). The burners light
automatically and once the temperature is reached you set with the
knob, the thermostatic valve turns the burners off, lighting them again
when the temperature drops.
6.2 APPROXIMATE TEMPERATURE OF THE VALVE KNOB
Pos. 1 = 100°C Pos. 2 = 110°C Pos. 3 = 125°C
Pos. 4 = 135°C Pos. 5 = 145°C Pos. 6 = 160°C
Pos. 7 = 170°C Pos. 8 = 180°C
Tolerance ± 10%
6.3 TURNING THE FRYER BURNERS OFF
Turn the knob round to the position. The burners will go out, leaving
only the pilot flame alight.
6.4 TURNING THE FRYER OFF COMPLETELY
Press the push button right down (23) and then let it go. This stops
gas reaching the burners and the pilot burner. This button will stay
down automatically for 1 minute after which it returns to its initial
The appliances must be installed on premises that are suitable for the
discharge of the combustion products and be in compliance with
AS/NZS 5601.1. Our appliances are considered type “A” gas
appliances (see the Technical Data Tables) and are not for connecting
to a natural discharge duct for combustion products.
These appliances must discharge through specific extractors, or similar
devices, connected to a properly working flue or discharged directly
outside.
In the absence of these, it is admissible to have an air aspirator
connected to a safe flue pipe or directly to the outdoors.
If this is not possible, an air suction device can be used connected
directly to the outside, with a capacity that must be no less than that
required, see Table 1, plus the quantity of fresh air that is necessary for
the well-being of the workers.
4.6CHECKING FOR GAS LEAKS
Once installed, check there are no gas leaks on pipe joints using a
soapy water solution. You will know if there are leaks by the foamy
bubbles that form. Never use bare flames to check for leaks.
When the appliance is ready to use, check that there are no gas leaks,
by checking on the gauge, if used (for a period of 30 minutes), that
there is no passage or consumption of gas.
MAINTENANCE
There is very little maintenance thanks to the correct way the
appliances have been made. However, we do advise having the
systems checked by qualified personnel at least twice a year.
4.7TEST APPLIANCE AFTER INSTALLATION
As per user instructions in section 6, test appliance to ensure it is working
correctly.

position. Only now can the fryer be turned on again, repeating the steps
from the beginning.
6.5 SAFETY THERMOSTAT
Besides the thermostatic safety valve (1), the appliance also features a
safety thermostat (8) situated inside the control panel and will work if
the thermostatic valve fails to turn the burners out when the oil reaches
maximum temperature.
If the safety thermostat intervene, find the reason immediately and
change the part that is not working if necessary. Press the red push
button on the safety thermostat to light the burners again.
6.6 OIL LOAD
Check that the bowl drainage tap is closed. Fill up with oil or fat until
you reach the minimum (lower) or maximum (higher) notch printed on
the back of the bowl.
6.7 EMPTYING THE BOWL
Once the oil has cooled the user must make sure that there is a specific
tank for collecting the drained water. Mount the drain pipe with
bayonet joint, conforming to the drawing. Operate the lever to drain
the water as shown in the drawing.
7. MAINTENANCE, CLEANING AND CARE
Have it checked by a specialised technician at least twice a year.
Clean the steel parts with water, detergent and a wet cloth. The
detergent used must not contain any corrosive or abrasive substance
as it can damage the steel surfaces.
After washing, rinse with clean water and dry with a dry cloth.
If the appliance is going to be out of use for a long period of time, rub all
steel parts briskly with a cloth soaked in Vaseline oil, leaving a
protective layer. Also aerate the premises periodically.
Any contact with ferrous materials, both continuous and occasional,
must be avoided at all costs as such materials can corrode. This means
that ladles, spatulas, spoons, etc., must be in stainless steel.
