LIGHTIING INSTRUCTIONS
Fryers are furnished with a Gas Control Safety Valve. Please follow the instructions below.
Before Lighting Pilot and Burners
Fill the fat tank about 3/4" below the full line with proper frying compound before lighting pilot. The
reason for filling the tank 3/4" below the full line is that the frying compound will expand during the
preheating process.
If the frying compound expands above the full line, the frying compound may overflow out of the
tank during the cooking process. The reason for adding fry compound in fry tank before lighting
the pilot or burners is that the unit will be damaged if this is not done.
Operating Instructions:
Step 1. Ensure the Gas Control Valve dial is at the “OFF” position.
Step 2. Ensure the thermostat dial is at the “OFF” position.
Step 3. Turn the Gas Control Valve dial to “Pilot” position and hold. Press the pilot ignition button.
In order to drain any air within the gas pipe system, for the first use, please hold the Valve dial at
the “Pilot” position for 5-7 minutes until lit.
If Gas Fryer pilot light will not ignite, please hold an ignition source (a match) at the pilot. When
the flame is established, remove the Ignition source.
