SITE INSTALLATION  
1. It is the responsibility of the installer to verify  
that this installation is in compliance with the  
specifications listed in this manual and with local code  
requirements.  
9. DO NOT install this appliance in any area where it  
may be affected by any adverse conditions such as  
steam or dripping water, etc. DO NOT install fryer  
over a drain.  
2. Hood installation is required.  
10. LEVELING: Make certain the  
3
1
appliance is positioned firmly on all  
supporting casters. Level from front-  
to-back and side-to-side by holding  
lower collar (#2) while twisting upper  
collar (#1). Restraining ties can be  
used for stabilization if necessary.  
3. Both cooking and cleaning functions require  
unobstructed access. The frypots, control panels,  
and front access doors must be maintained free from  
obstruction. The front access door and back panel  
must be accessible for service and maintenance.  
2
Use an allen wrench (#3) to lock caster  
in position.  
4. Locate the appliance on a firm, level surface ONLY.  
The surrounding area must be kept clear of all  
combustible materials.  
5. FOR YOUR SAFETY dO NOT store or use any  
flammable liquids or allow flammable vapors in the  
vicinity of this fryer or any other appliance.  
6. FOR YOUR SAFETY dO NOT place insulation  
or any other type of materials in clearance areas.  
7. When properly installed, the fryer is designed for  
operation adjacent to non-combustible floors and  
walls with a 6" clearance at the back. Clearances  
from all combustible construction is a minimum of 6"  
(152mm) at the back and both sides. Concrete, tile,  
terrazzo, or metal surfaces are recommended. Metal  
over a combustible material may not meet code for  
non-combustible surfaces. Verify site selection with  
local codes for specific requirements.  
WARNING  
bURN WARNING: Make certain the  
fryer is stabilized before operation to  
prevent any movement or tipping and the  
possibility of severe burns caused by  
hot, splashing shortening or oil.  
Doit être utilisé seulement sur des planchers non  
inflammables.  
8. Adequate means must be provided to limit the  
movement of this appliance. A restraining device is  
required for field installation.  
CAUTION  
TO PREVENT PERSONAL INJURY,  
USE CAUTION WHEN MOVING OR  
LEVELING THIS APPLIANCE.

VENTILATION  
dANGER  
Installation, air adjustment and/or  
service work must be in accordance  
with all local codes and must be  
performed by a certified service  
technician qualified to work on  
gas appliances.  
An adequate ventilation system is required for commercial cooking equipment. Information may be obtained by writing  
to the National Fire Protection Association, Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269. When writing refer to NFPA No. 96.  
1. A single ASF-60G auto-lift gas fryer requires a  
minimum of 120 CFM make-up air for natural gas and  
48 CFM for propane gas. Kitchen ventilation must be  
of sufficient capacity to prevent a negative-pressure  
condition. dO NOT obstruct or restrict ventilation nor  
the air flow required to support combustion.  
3. This fryer cannot be direct vented.  
4. Install the fryer under a ventilation hood meeting all  
applicable code requirements. Combustion fumes  
must be vented in accordance with local, state, or  
national codes.  
2. dO NOT obstruct the flow of the exhaust flue at the  
top rear of the fryer. It is especially critical that gas  
supply piping and electrical support cord and/or  
receptacle be routed away from the path of the hot  
combustion fumes.  
dANGER  
FAILURE TO VENT THIS FRYER PROPERLY  
MAY BE HAZARDOUS TO THE  
CAUTION  
HEALTH OF THE OPERATOR.  
To prevent malfunction or cause  
negative back draft, DO NOT obstruct  
exhaust flues or attach any flue  
extension that will impede proper  
burner operation.  
Equipment damage and operational problems  
may also be the consequence of improper venting.  
Any damages sustained by a failure to properly vent  
this fryer are not covered under warranty.  
Ventilating hoods and exhaust systems shall be permitted to be  
used to vent appliances installed in commercial applications.  
Where automatically operated appliances are vented through a  
ventilating hood or exhaust system equipped with a damper or  
with a power means of exhaust, provisions shall be made to allow  
the flow of gas to the main burners only when the damper is open  
to a position to properly vent the appliance and when the power  
means of exhaust is in operation. in accordance With nfpa 54  
coMMonWealth of Massachusetts only.

OIL/SHORTENING REqUIREMENTS  
OIL/SHORTENING REqUIREMENTS  
Each ASF-60G frypot requires 62-pounds (28 kg) of oil or  
shortening. Use only quality, high-grade oil/shortening  
in the fryer. The high moisture content of lower grade  
shortening will result in excessive foaming and boil over.  
The cold oil/shortening level requirement for the fryer is  
indicated below.  
dANGER  
The flash point of shortening  
occurs at a lower temperature  
the longer the shortening is  
used. discard any shortening  
showing signs of deterioration  
to avoid serious burns, fire,  
and property damage.  
CAUTION  
Check the quality of the oil/shortening in the frypots on a  
daily basis for signs of deterioration. Use an approved test  
kit. Signs of shortening deterioration include excessive  
boiling, smoking, foaming, bad taste, and rancid odor.  
Discard any shortening before it degrades to the point  
of affecting product quality. Always filter the oil on a  
regular basis and keep the frypot clean.  
Cold oil or shortening expands as  
the temperature increases. To avoid  
injury and equipment damage, allow for  
expansion by filling to the cold oil fill line.  
NOTE: ALWAYS maintain the proper level of  
shortening by adding fresh oil/shortening  
to the frypot whenever needed.  
CAUTION  
ENSURE THERE IS NO WATER IN THE FRYPOT  
BEFORE FILLING WITH OIL/SHORTENING. WHEN  
COOKING COMPOUNDS ARE HEATED TO COOKING  
TEMPERATURE, WATER IN THE FRYPOT WILL CAUSE  
OIL TO SPLATTER AND MAY BE A BURN HAZARD.

OIL FILL LINE  
Remove ice crystals and ensure that food is dry before  
frying. Excessive water and ice can cause oil to splatter

surrounded by oil for best frying results.  
COLD OIL  
FILL LINE  
Maximum shortening life is achieved by lowering the  
temperature of the fryer to 250°F (121°C) or turning the  
fryer station off when not in use. In multiple-station units,  
heat only the component fryers necessary to meet cooking  
needs.  
CAUTION  
FIRE OR EQUIPMENT DAMAGE CAN RESULT FROM  
IMPROPER SHORTENING LEVELS. THE LEVEL OF  
SHORTENING MUST ALWAYS BE ABOVE THE HEAT

CLEANING  
bOIL-OUT PROCEdURE  
NOTE: Perform an initial boil-out to clean and  
sanitize the fryer before operating.  
NOTES: before and during boil-out:  
before draining any kettle, be sure the optional  
mobile oil caddy or heat safe container is in its  
location underneath the drain(s).  
Carbonized deposits along with an accumulation of oil  
will eventually build-up on the interior of the frypot as  
well as fryer accessories. It is important to periodically  
remove these deposits, not only to maintain fryer

efficiency, but also to provide the highest product quality.  
NOTE: Always wear eye protection or a face  
shield and protective rubber gloves  
when cleaning the frypot as boil-out  
chemical is an alkaline solution and can  
cause severe burns.  
1. Open the front access door. Place the mobile oil caddy  
under the drain. Attach and twist on drain extension  
pipe [PP-29479] to the drain valve. Slowly rotate frypot  
Kettle Drain valve to OPENto drain oil.  
NOTE: because each fryer is controlled  
separately, the following procedure  
must be followed for every unit in a fryer  
battery.  
2. While wearing heat resistant gloves, wipe excess oil out  
of inside of frypot with paper towel or clean rag.  
3. Empty the oil from the mobile oil caddy. Wash the oil  
caddy, rinse with clean water, and dry caddy thoroughly.  
NOTE: Manual boil-Out can only be performed  
when the actual temperature of the  
frypot is less than 210°F (99°C).  
4. Rotate the drained fryer’s Kettle Drain valve clockwise  
until rotation stops and the drain valve is “CLOSEd.”  
CAUTION  
CAUTION  
KEEP A CONTAINER OF COLD WATER ON HAND  
DURING BOIL-OUT IN CASE OF BOIL-OVER.  
IF BOIL-OVER IS IMMINENT, IMMEDIATELY POUR COLD
