CAUTION: ALL DEEP FAT FRYERS SHALL BE INSTfiLED WITH AT LEAST A 16 INCH
SPACE BETWEEN THE FRYER AND SURFACE FLAMES FROM ADJACENT.EQUIPMENT.
Select a firm, level location for your Southbend Fryer. Leave clearance, whenever possible, so that
access from the rear is possible to permit cleaning and servicing. If the unit is to be set on non-
combustible flooring, such as a concrete slab, 3 inches minimum toe room must be provided to
prevent restriction of the air opening in the bottom of the unit.
W-G
The unit must be in&shed in such a manner that the flow of combustion and venti-
lation air are not obstructed. Provisions for an adequate air supply must also be provided. Do
NOT obstruct the bottom front of the unit, as combustion air enters through this area.
NOTE: No additional clearance from the sides and back is required for service, as the units are
serviceable from the front.
EXHAUST FANS AND CANOPIES:
Canopies are set over ranges, ovens, etc., for ventilation purposes. It is recommended that a canopy
extend 6” past appliance and be located 6’6” from the floor. Filters should be installed at an angle of 45
degrees or more with the horizontal. This prevents dripping of grease and facilitates collecting the run-
off grease in a drip pan, usually instaIled with the filter. A strong exhaust fan tends to create a vacuum
in the room and may interfere with burner performance or may extinguish pilot flames. Fresh air
openings approximately equal to the fan area will relieve such vacuum. In case of unsatisfactory
performance on any appliance, check with the exhaust fan in the “OFF” position.
DIRECT CONNXCTIONz This unit is not intended to be connected directly to an outside flue.
WALL EXHAUST FAN:
Should be installed at least 2 feet above the vent opening at the top of the
shelf or backsplash.
NOTE: Due to the variety of problems encountered by outside weather conditions, venting by
canopies or wall fans are preferred over any type of direct venting.
WARNING: All Deep Fat Fryers must be restrained to prevent tipping when installed in order
to avoid the splashing of hot liquid. The means of restraint may be the manner of installation,
such as connection to a battery of appliances or installing the fryer in an alcove, or by separate
means, such as adequate ties.
