Section 5 Service Procedures

To reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, explosion, serious injury or death:
• Disconnect electric power to the dryer(s) before servicing.
• Close gas shut-off valve to gas dryer(s) before servicing.
• Never start the dryer(s) with any guards/panels removed.
• Whenever ground wires are removed during servicing, these ground wires must be 

reconnected to ensure that the dryer is properly grounded.

WARNING

45. CYLINDER ASSEMBLY

a. While supporting the access panel, remove two 

screws from bottom edge of access panel. See 
Figure 5.

b. Gently lower the access panel to disengage 

locators from bottom edge of front panel. See 
Figure 12.

c. Remove two screws holding bottom tabs on 

front panel to dryer side panels. See Figure 12. 
Swing bottom of front panel away from dryer 
far enough to disengage hold-down clips and 
locators from cabinet top.

d. Disconnect wires from door switch. See 

Figure 11.

NOTE: Refer to wiring diagram when rewiring 
switch.

e. Disengage belt from motor and idler pulleys. 

See Figure 19.

NOTE: When reinstalling belt, be sure belt is 
properly installed on motor and idler pulleys, and is 
on the correct side of the idler lever. See Figure 19. 
Belt must be positioned around cylinder between 
center and rear baffle screws with the ribbed 
surface against the cylinder. After installing belt, 
manually rotate cylinder counterclockwise to check 
that belt is properly aligned.

f. Remove four screws holding bulkhead to front 

flange of cabinet. Then lift complete bulkhead 
assembly out of slots in cabinet. See Figure 25.

IMPORTANT: When reassembling, be sure seal on 
exhaust fan cover makes airtight seal on flange of 
duct. See Figure 16. If the seal is installed 
improperly, the airflow through the exhaust system 
will be restricted which can adversely affect dryer 
performance.

g. Remove two cabinet top hold-down screws. 

See Figure 25.

h. Carefully remove cylinder out through front of 

dryer.

i. Baffles – Remove screws holding baffles to 

cylinder. See Figure 29. 

Figure 29

To reduce the risk of serious injury or death 
by carbon monoxide and other gases in gas 
dryers, carefully read and follow all 
instructions given in this section.
